A very pale, crisp beer, with a hoppy character. A fruity aroma and a pleasant, light taste.

50cl bottle from Varnaveien mineralvann. Pours clear golden with a white head. Lightly hoppy aroma with malt, citrus and some fruity notes. Moderate sweet with a nice bitterness in the finish. Nice, refreshing and easy drinking.

Bottle, 4.2%. Cloudy yellow colour. Small frothy white head. The flavour is malty with a weak grassy hop note. Good mouthfeel, even a little isotonic.

0.5l bottle. This is a crystal clear dark nutty golden one with a small bubbly white head. On the nose I get soft watery fruits, some hops, peach and soft grass. Mild fair aroma. It's light oily on the mouthfeel and the carbonation is right about average. Really easy to drink. Subtle fruity, it has a surprisingly good bitterness, light hoppy. Some sweetness also present here. By all means it's not easy picking this in a blind test against any old OK bitter/golden, but it's at least not boring all the way. A decent one. 27.04.2013

Bottle from Brewdog Slovensko. Clear amber colour. Medium sized white head, stable. Aroma rather malty / honey, with just light hops. Taste is not amazing, but not bad either. Medium bitterness, with nice spice-earth-grass hopy flavour. However I sense some metallic off-flavour. Also this beer is rather thin bodied. Easily drinkable. Dry hoppy/metallic finish. Good summer thirst quencher, not particulary delightful though.

500 ml bottle, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4.1%. Golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of grassy hops, some fruity notes too. Fairly dry flavour, light bodied, moderate hops throughout, zesty and mildly spicy notes, a hint of tobacco. Decent bitterness in the finish.
