Bottled. Clear, still, golden beer with a white head. Malt, apple, alcohol and some hops in the nose. The flavor starts fruity, with apple and pear, then malty sweetness and some hops comes through. Medium body. Too much alcohol, as expected with a 7.3% Sweedish lager. At least it tastes better than its weaker brothers. (060824)

Can in May 2005.Golden color and a white head. Alcohol in the scent and taste. Feels like you’ve poured some alcohol in it to make it stronger. Good for getting you drunk, bad for having a good beer.

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. totally different aroma than 5,2% version, Weak malty nose with hints of alcohol. Skunked hops in flavour along with hints of alcohol. Still quite watery and soft for being 7,3. Totally different from 5,2% in every way, most likely totally different recipe too. Positive surprise actually, even though it is not THAT good.

A light orange beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet alcohol combined with notes of metal. The flavor is sweet alcoholic and metallic - but inspite of the alcohol the mouthfeel is thin.

(Bottle 33 cl) Fully golden with a thin, white head. Naturally quite full-bodied with a subdued bitterness and some sweetness. Compared to Danish beers in the same style this isn’t really that bad. 160800

(500 ml can). Golden pilsener-like colour, low head. Decent fruity and grassy aroma, flavour is blah! - sweet and alcoholic, I can hardly finish the glass. Completely unbalanced. How the heck do Swedish alcoholics manage to drink stuff like this? - other Swedish breweries make similar crap.

Pale golden, brief airy head. Sweet and grainy, alcohol is very evident. Not much bitterness. Drinkable, but just.
