Sampled bottled at "En öl & whiskymässa" in Göteborg, on April 13, 2013.Clear yellow color, small white head. Sweet, malty, sugar, vegetable scent. Malty, a bit dry, sort of standard lager taste. Mineral aftertaste. Spritzy mouthfeel, low bitterness.

Served from a can into a .5 l glass. Decent color. Quickly collapsing head. Slightly metallic aroma. A bit grassy flavor. Hops conspicuously absent. Very little after taste. Claims to have won a World Beer Award for World’s best lager. I think not.

500ml can. No idea where it came from, but ended in my hand nevertheless. A pretty ordinary beer, smell of stewed barley and a taste of malt. Was okay chilled on a hot day, which it was.

Can. Light golden with a white head. Thin, with sweet malty aroma and lightly hopped. Watery with a slightly bitter finish. Boring, but drinkable.
