Viking Lager

Brewed by Viking Ölgerd
Style: Pale Lager
Akureyri, Iceland

Served on tap at the very fine café Prikid in the center of Reykjavik. A very pale lager that pours a thin yellow with a thin head. No aroma. Notes of citrus and bread in the taste. This is very uninteresting at its best. Very waterish, The location is the best thing to be said about it. Beers was banned in Iceland until 1989.. apearently they still have some hurdles to get past due to the 74years of illegalicy.

30.10.2004, 0,5l Can. the texture is thin and the aroma is malty. Tastes little.

On tap in a bar in Reykjavik. Aroma of malt, sweet lager with a citrus finish. Light golden , thin white lace. Citrus in the flavour, bitter and fresh. Little bit of honey in it. I needed a beer and it did the trick.

Meh. It’s an Icelandic beer, one to drink if there’s nothing else available. Boring....

Light golden with an OK head. The aroma has a light sweetness, notes of malt, wet grain and hints of metal and the same goes for the flavour. Even if it isn’t a pleasure to drink, it’s no wrose than many other mainstream lagers...

Drank on vacation in Iceland in 2005. Another pale, straw skunky poo lager. Full of corn and other malt replacers. This beer is as funky and dull as they come...well, still better than Budweiser (I think).

Bottle as extra from Maria to grab me Iceland. I had a flashback to the steel reserve I rated earlier this summer. Corn and adjunt nose that is thck and sweet. A big corn and malt push with no dicernable hops at all. Some grassiness but that is probably general funk not t be confused with hops. Body waters up pretty quick for thinner finish. Not absolutly horrible, but not to0 far from 40 Oz. status.
