(Can) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with big frothy white head. Hoppy, malty nose with notes of white bread, citrus and herbal hops. Hoppy, malty taste with white bread, gooseberries, pineapple, citrus and a balanced herbal/citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Tasty and refreshing. Nice one.

0.33 l can from Systembolaget in Stockholm. Shared with little Dina. Hazy golden, small persistent white head. Moderately hoppy, very fresh and aromatic citrusy hops, a touch of dried apricot and spices. Nice grainy background. Light and very drinkable. Slightly grassy, hay and a nice fruity, citrusy or even candy sweet touch. Moderate to high carbonation. Light dry finish. A very good lager, still fresh.

Can from Systembolaget. Somewhat hazy notes from last night. I mistook it for a weak IPA not a hazy lager but in either case the bitterness was too low. I thouhht the lack of uumph might be my cold but no I can take other drinks just fine. It was fresh but lacking in power.
