0,33 l. bottle from Netto-supermarket. Brewed in the UK. Clear, pale yellow colour with a short lived white cap. The aroma in this one here is corn with wet paper, some grains, a bit of hay. Taste of sweet grains, corn, some pale malts. Quite watery and thin. However, worked okay with my curry soup.

0.33l bottle from Systembolaget Passagen, Stockholm. "The world's most celebrated lager", "Premium Beer - Extra smooth", "... The perfect beer" This has to be one of the best beers I ever get to taste - unless the label is lying? But of course it's not. Is it? A clear pale yellow beer with a thin fading and sidesticking head, a aroma that reminds me of a muddy puddle and tasting pretty much nothing else than water and dusty hops? Hmm.. The label was lying. Where do I get my money back? Bah, It's not even from India.

Light malt and cereal aroma. Has a light to medium carbonation. A very soft, creamy feel for a lager. Light bitterness in the aftertaste but otherwise plain.

Bottle @ home, shared with DutchDrebus. Very clear golden color, small white head. Weird smell, canโt describe it. Weak, somewhat weird malty taste as well. Decent carbonation, low body.

Golden yellow colour, thin white head. Malts, corn, light on hops. Light body. Doesnโt quite fit spicy food as well as expected. Drinkable, nothing more.
