500ml bottle. Hazy dark amber body with a thin head and firm lacing. Light smell of sweet malts. Taste of malts with a hoppy edge. Fairly dry, bitter finish. Watery impression. However, it should be alright as a session beer for football matces (Oslo, 20.08.2007).

Medium offwhite head. Light brown body. Faint sweetish malty aroma, just barely detectable. Dry papery caramel taste with hoppy notes. Somewhat watery. Dry resiny aftertaste. Chalky mouthfeel, sllghtly harsh. Decent, but a bit boring. Clear winners of the "Ugliest Label Ever" contest. No competition, really. (0.5l bottle from Centra.)

Big offwhite head. Reddish brown body. Light hoppy caramel aroma with resiny notes. Dry, light malty caramelly taste with a drier golden resiny aftertaste. Mild, harmonic, and balanced. Leaves a metallic floral lingering taste. Nice, decent. (0.5l bottle from Centra under the name Integrated Bottling Solutions Hazy Days.)

500 ml bottle, as Branded Drinks Rumpy Pumpy. ABV is 4.0%. Bought at ULTRA Stadionparken, Stavanger. Amber coloured beer, moderate head. Moderate aroma, malts with some "vegetable" notes, hints of caramel and flowery aromatic hops. Moderately malty flavour but fairly dry, biscuity notes, a hint of toffee. Very moderate hops in the finish. Relatively thin and watery mouthfeel. Definitely drinkable, but not a great beer.

Cloudy golden brown colour, decent head. Very moderate aroma, just a hint of toffee and bakery. "Dusty" and fairly dry flavour with some malt, hints of biscuits and toffee, and moderate hops in the finish.
