A yellow beer with no head. The aroma is sweet malty - and so is the flavor - a boring beer.

(Bottle 35 cl) Pours a clear, pilsener golden with a small, creamy, white head. Lightly sweet, malty aroma. Medium body with lightly sweet, malty notes and some fruitiness. A dry finish without much bitterness. Quite refreshing. 021206

Bottled. Clear golden. Rounded clean maltiness is this beer foremost feature. It’s medium bodied with average bitterness. Fairly well made easy drinking stuff.

Bottle. Quite fruity aroma. A little teaish and smokey. Pale golden colour, small head. OK bitterness. Has some aroma hops, but it does seem a little watery.

Bottled. Mediumsized white head. Aroma is malty, grassy and hoppy. Flavour is quite malty with some grassy and flowery hops. OK, but not very exciting.
