The famous Ringnes Pilsner was introduced to the market in 1886. This beer was among the first beers in Norway to be brewed with pure yeast. Ringnes Pilsner soon became popular and is today a best-selling beer in Norway.

Ringnes Pilsner is well balanced with a light hoppy and malty aroma. It has a beautiful golden colour with a full, yet dry mouthfeel. The taste has a light malt sweetness reminiscent of hay and straw, with a well-balanced, rich bitterness.

(Draught at Gardermoen Airport, Oslo, 6 Nov 2009) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty nose with bread and a touch of citrus, slightly sourish with some boiled vegetables. Malty taste with notes of grass, bread and slightly grassy hops in a finish with moderate bitterness. Light body, with balanced sweetness. Fairly clean. Drinkable but boring.

International lager style - no flavors that are nice. Had one at the peak of Kebenekaise (didn’t bring it myself).

On tap at Radisson Hotel in Bergen. Boring, bread, metallic. Yeah you know how it is. So incredibly thin and watery beer that one wonders how its possible.

On tap in an Oslo restaurant. Generic pale lager, with a slightly bitter aftertaste. The most popular and overrated beer in Norway.

500 ml can. Golden body with a small white head. Aroma is vague grainy. Flavor is fruity, vague malt and low bitterness. A bit thin body, otherwise just another standard boring industrial lager.

Can, 4.5%. Clear yellow colour. Small white head. The flavour is bready, not unpleasant. Tastes a little old, but is not. Low bitterness. Not as dry as many other pale lagers.

Bottled on the ferry home from skiing. Golden with a disappearing head. Bland malty aroma with a hint of grassy, herb-y hops. Malt, corn, metal in a rather sweet flavour. Falls short of a regular Danish lager, but could be worse.
