Poured a clear, well-carbonated medium gold in colour with a large foamy white head. The aroma was rather low-key, with hops and perhaps a bit floral. Taste was mildly hopped and a just a titch of spice.

bottle at Gotherborg beerfest pours golden, light white head. Aroma is hoppy with light malty notes Taste, hoppy, floral sweet palate; borderline honey, remains bittersweet with notes of wheat, some malts add for a smooth palate. Simple and easy to drink.

Pours a clear medium to light gold with a nice white head, fades a bit but leaves a film. Aroma is bready malts, but has a slight skunked hop aroma. Bready malts along with some herbal and spicy hops and a slight metallic finish. High carbonation detracts from the flavors and mouthfeel.

Really not all that bad. Aroma was quite pleasant: More sweet than bitter, very fresh (from a can so no light struck probs), very "beery". Poured with a big, foamy head that settles down to a thin cover and some lace. Color is a clear pale yellow. Flavor is like aroma. Body is a touch thin. Ok carbonation. Clean, pleasant finish. Definitely a session beer. Got this on at Sam’s in Chi.

Looked like carbonated pear juice. A light head appeared quickly but was almost gone within the first minuites. Had a decent pear aroma along with a light pianapple laste and some pink candy???? seems strange. Must’ve been cause I was on my 6th or 7th beer. Buy a 4 pack and slam em back - a good way to enjoy it!

extremely pale yellow, fluffy white head, quite lacy. nose is strongly corn syrupy. flavor is sweet sweet corn syrup (must be the ekstra). cloyingly sweet finish, oily mouth feel. pretty dreadful, not worth a repeat. single bottle from binnys beverage depot in orland park. thank goodness it is cheap enough to want me to kick it up a point or two.

Light yellow, with quickly diseappering head. Not really foamy, so it does not match the BJCP definition of a Munich Helles or Dortmunter Export. Malty aroma. Sour salty(!) flavour. Somer power, and well balanced with hop. No obvious alcohol in the equation. Thin-medium body. To thick to be refreshing. I’m not well versed in german style beers, and I could not classify this according to BJCP. However, since it is not overly sweet with some hop, I would guess this is a Munich helles. Not very interesting. Purchased in Krakow.
