This beer blew my expectations away. A beer I buy often. Wonderfully complex nose, fruity and rich hop notes with a very generous, pleasing body. It is crisp and yet not just another lager.

ABV in Norway is 4,5%. I'm sure the (slightly stronger) export version is even better, if you get it fresh. This beer is basically a pilsener (Saaz hops), but brewed with a certain amount of Munich malts to give it some of the rounded flavour of a Munich dunkel. Not a bad marriage, I'd say.

Is this a Vienna style lager? Its malty, with both a sweet aroma, caramel color and flavor. Virtually no bitterness. I drank it down rather quickly - and would be happy to have more (too bad I bought only one)!
