"Poor exchange rate" is a collaboration with our friends from Mikkeller. We brewed a german style pilsner with Saaz, Tettnanger and Hallertau Mittelfruh. The malty sweetness of the beer is balanced with a complex and vibrant aroma of the noble hops. Enjoy with chicken, oily fish or a salad.

0,44 boks fra Den Store Postordrekatalogen, hjemme: nesten helt klar gylden med fint skum. Imøtekommende aroma og smak preget av pilsnermalt og de deilige Saaz, Tettnanger og HM i fin kombinasjon. Fruktig, krydret og eminent pøsbar. Mild bitterhet og ganske så saftig i avslutningen.

440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.5%. Slightly hazy golden colour, moderate to small white head. Aroma of herbal German hops and pilsener malts, hints of hay. Good mouthfeel for its ABV. Herbal hops and decent malts again, a hint of honey, moderate bitterness.
