chriso (7062) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUL 26, 2011
Gold/amber colour. Hazy. Quite lively. Boiled vegetable and corn aroma. Slightly biscuity malt on the palate. Very little discernible hop presence. What there is is a bit tinny. Pretty poor stuff.

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - JUL 26, 2011
Bottled. Deep golden colour, small white head. Aroma is maize, some rubber as well as some vegetable notes. Flavour is wood, some maize, mild rubber, some slight malts, vegetables and some herbal notes. Quite harsh "rubbery" aftertaste along with the maize and vegetables.

Sigmund (3495) - Hafrsfjord, NORWAY - JUL 14, 2011
Shared 330 ml can, at local tasting. ABV is 5.1%. Pale golden colour, large white head. Minimal aroma, hints of grassy and citrussy hops, not unpleasant though. Fairly "clean" and neutral pale lager flavour, a hint of citrus, noticeable hops. Not as bad as I feared.

Koelschtrinker (6544) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 7, 2011
Metallern und wässrig riecht das Bier, dafür ist der Scham besser als beim Gulder. Leicht süßlich, gleichzeitg wässrig, im Nachgeschmack auch mal metallern und hopfig. Schmeckt wie einige andere 08/15 Biere auch. Zum besaufen geeignet, geschmacklich unten durch. Die groß (wirklich groß) und oft bescheinigte Premium Qualität auf dem Etikett ist ein Witz. Test vom 25.4.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 11,6,10,5,7,6 - 7,00
