33cl Bottle (present). A new country in the statistics (that’s the positive). A lager that I will (hopefully) quickly forget (that;s obviously the negative part). Watery, thin, flavorless and uninspired.

650 ml. brown bottle. Grassy hop aroma. Bright golden color; decent white head. Thin to medium bodied, rather fizzy/creamy carbonation. Pale malt with a herby/papery aspect (yeast?). Not too bitter, but more so than American macros. The bitter tends to build in the mouth like a pilsner, and the different flavor note is thereby cleansed away. For a pale lager it is good. I would say it is not corny. Pales with respect to ales, but ...

Hay aroma. Yellow color no head. Bitter honey taste. Finish is sour lemon and pepper and biting. Finish takes on a more hoppy quality during warming.

From 33 cL bottle. Pours pale yellow with no head. Aroma of hops. Flavour is bitterhops, dry, minor note of malt. Refreshing flavour but without any depth. Watery and dry finish.

(Bottle 33 cl) Very pale golden with a white head. Sweetish, lightly buttery nose. Light-bodied with unclean notes of brewing cereal and metal. Ends thin and watery. 200507

Bottle 0,5l. Pale golden coloured. A rapidly disappearing white head. Sourish aroma. A watery sweet malty flavor. Very one-dimensional. Hardly any bitterness.

330ml bottle sampled at a drinking session in Tromsø. Pale golden body with a filmy layer. A malty touch in aroma. Flavour is little more than sugar water added hints of corn. Thin bodied and lively carbonation (18.04.2007).

330 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Brewed and bottled by Blossom Industries, India (trade mark owner: United Breweries, Bangalore). Imported to Norway by ITG. Golden colour, moderate head. Flowery aromatic hops, maybe some citrus too. Standard pale lager flavour without any offensive sidenotes, rather fizzy but with tolerable hops for the style. I’ll admit that my expectations were very low, but for an Indian pale lager this one is not too bad. At least it will be a tolerable accompaniment with your curry.

Bottled. Clear yellow, small head. Tart rice paper aroma. Sweet and bland with coarse rounded mouthfeel. No bitterness. No evident flaws, but tremendously dull.
