50cl can shared with Dutchdrebus and Joes. Clear golden color, small white head. Smell and taste malts, a touch of sweetness in the aroma but a fairly bitter flavor. Overcarbonated, thin texture.

yngwie (10754) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - MAR 28, 2013
Bottle, thx Hanne. A beer that doesn’t impress in any way aroma- or flavor-wise, but at least it looks quite cute. A clear body, golden in color, is topped by a white head leaving lacings. The aroma is mostly on the fruity and grainy side, with some notes of cooked vegetables. The flavor has a little bitterness to deal with the malts, some fruityness blends in, but it has a slightly annoying note of DMS in the back. Quite dry on the palate. Fruity, grainy and lightly bitter finish. Certainly nothing impressive going on here, but at least it’s perfectly drinkable. 130328

Bottle from La Mesa Market. Sweet grainy nose. Flavor is grainy with a bit of a malt backbone. Drinkable when ice cold. Not a bad beer, but just average at best.

Canned@chriso (from Drinkers Paradise). Deep golden colour, small white head. Aroma is glue, some sweet strange notes as well as mild grassy and grainy notes. Flavour is grassy, grainy, sweet malty with some mild bitterness to it. Not the nicest aroma, but flavour is nice.
