Deep gold in color, this beer is luminous in the glass. From the very first sip, the full-bodied flavor is immediately perceptible – a balanced harmony of hop and malt aromas.

Bottled, from Systembolaget. Clear golden, mid sized head. Fruity doughy nose. Sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Dough and malt syrup, some grass. Low-medium bitterness. Surprisingly lacking in malt firmness.

Bottle from Systembolaget. A strange very soapy aroma like bubble bath bubbles. This beer is just so remarkably smooth however, I think one could drink this by the gallon. Quite tasty too to be honest. A smooth job, moments from.perfection.

Clear golden, white head. Malty, hoppy smell. Taste is a fresh, hoppy lager, just a bit of fruit to give it a bit of zing. Lovely!

Draught at Talleke ja Pullike (Kakumäe). Pours nice golden, frothy white head, too much head actually, not a good pour. Aroma is sweetish-malty, still a hint of noble hops, medium biscuits. Tastes quite dry actually, still biscuit, light grass, in fact quite drinkable and my mug gets empty soon. Simple beer with no special character, but drinks well, would be easy to drink a lot of it - what I assume is the point.

Draught. Clear golden pour. White rocky stable head. Aroma: grains, cereal, straw. Clean and rustic. Minor hop spiciness. Medium body. Fairly sweet grainy taste front. The mid taste and the endind have a sign of nice spicy hop. Good balance. You are during the drinking like in a German farmer's field. Decent

Flaska från SB. Gyllengul vätska med medelhögt kritvitt skum. Doft av säd, ljust bröd, jäst och lite mineraler. Mjuk len och ganska lätt kropp men trots det ingen alkohol som slår igenom. Stilmässigt någonstans mellan en helles och en märzen. Harmonisk smakbild men mer bryggd för att dricka i stora klunkar än att överanalysera. Med det sagt ändå fina brödiga smaker, med lite höiga och örtiga humletoner, Snyggt och gott.

Golden color, small but persistent bright white head and strong lacing. Nose is toasted bread, light grassy hop, a hint of toffee-malt syrup. Rounded medium-full palate with a sweet grainy emphasis, very mild tartness, caramel, medium bitter at finish. Good but feels like it needs food. I could imagine drinking quarts of this with pizza, or lots of wurst, but maybe not standalone. Getting to the bottom of this glass, the graininess becomes more pronounced, as does a mild booziness become apparent. Doesn’t end well.
