Bright, grainy lager, with a pale malt sweetness accented by cracker, lemon, white bread, and a touch of apple, followed by a firm earthy-floral bitterness. Very nice pint.

Bottle to mug.
Appearance: rusty yellow to almost copper color with a one and a half fingers of white foamy head, dissipated to leave some light messy lace
Aroma: clean biscuity/bready/cracker malts balancing in some light grassy/earthy hops
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas semi-sweetly, mild aftertaste of the malts
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, smooth along the tongue, finishes crisp, clean and malty
Overall: nicely done kellerbier worthy of coming back to.

Aromas are malt, dry grain, lumber and a bit of funk. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, on the sweet side, with some bitter and decent carbonation to balance. Body is a tad full. Good but not great.

Bottled (from Systembolaget Umeå). Yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is grassy, floral, bready and some sweet malty tones. Flavour is bready, some herbal, grassy and mild earthy notes. Smooth amd refreshing.

Pours hazy amber with a frothy white head. Aroma of bright malt notes, some grass. Taste has some heavy hops, some more grass. Palate has lemon on the nose. Good.
