12 oz. can thanks to Stacey. Clear golden color. Aroma is light malt, stale yeast, straw. The standard, typical generic lager recipe found around the world.

Can from Stacey, drunk 12/8/18.
Light, coppery-golden, clear with a quickly dissipating white head.
Smells of light saaz-like hops and some mineral character from the water and/or yeast. Has a nice skunky character. Reasonably clean, actually.
In the mouth it's a bit less clean with some odd crayon and light chemical notes that mix with a fairly malty texture and fizzy carbonation. Light honey, mild bitterness and reasonable attenuation. No alcohol noted.

Shared 330 ml can, possibly dated, at local tasting. Golden colour, small white head. "Neutral" pale lager aroma. Neutral flavour too, only a slight sweetness, very moderate hops. Boring, but no off-flavours.

0,3 boks delt på RBHD-treff ombord på Fridtjofen, april-18: klar lys gylden med kort skum. Mild duft av lys malt, karamell, milde urter og noe parfymeaktig. Ukomplisert smak med samme inntrykk, her får ganen ingen utfordringer. Kort ettersmak nesten uten bitterhet.

Shared can at RB/HD on board Fridtjofen 12.04.18. Clear pale golden. No head. Aroma and taste of dry grass, pilsner malt, citrus zest and perfume. Some sourness is lingering on. Low bitterness.

In manchen islamischen Ländern gibt es gottseidank auch Brauereien. So gibt es schon seit den 50er-Jahren von der niederländischen Amstel-Brauerei eine Filiale, die den Jordanischen Markt versorgt. Das BIer ist ein helles Lager, das einen vollmundigen Geschmack hat und nicht wie erwartet wässrig ist. Ein Bier, das mich freut, dass ich es kosten konnte.

Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head that soon settles to only a small brim. The aroma is very clean, malty and grainy. The taste starts with a tiny bitterness. It is followed by a very decent and bitter body, concluding with a fresh finish.

Clear golden to orange beer, small creamy white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: malty, shrimp peels, spicy touch. Very weird. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet, watery, bit grassy, hoppy touch. Aftertaste: sweet, bitter touch, some bubble gum, sugary, little metallic.

Really surprised to see this on a cruise liner (MS Balmoral, a Fred Olsen ship). I had a couple of cans while sailing down from San Diego down towards the Panama canal. Typical lager/pilsner look, clean, clear and golden with a thinning white cap on top. Very little aroma, although I thought I detected corn, other unknown grains and a metallic hint: all three of those ideas arrived in the taste though. I wasn’t overly impressed to be honest, but had a second can a few days later just to make sure I wasn’t being unkind or had an iffy can the first time, I hadn’t. Not the worst lager in the world but it is not a long way from such an accolade. Wasn’t even refreshing really.
