Opaque GREEN colour - TRUE! - with yellowish shine; under snow-white head. I’m not inventing anything! I’ve had Fanta lime, and some other lemonades smelling exactly like this. I can’t describe it though, words fail. Taste: OHMEGOD. That anybody might ever confuse this with beer! Palate: I’d like to write disgusting. Let’s keep it on light. There ought to be a limit SOMEWHERE. This exceeds any limit. It’s limey, with my apologies to the B ritish.

An unclear red beer with some blue hue mixed in. The aroma is like rødgrød (strawberry and rhubarb porage). The flavor is artificial with notes of rhubarb and strawberries.

Pretty standard witn nose. Cloudy yellow, rather low head. Perfumed flowery flavors are overpowering. Thinbodied, somewhat flat mouthfeel. Rather one-dimensional wit.

I’m not sure what this even is! But here goes...This ??? pours a light yellow with a short lived white head. I may have caught orange or grapefruit juice in the smell along with lemons and a small amount of malt. First taste was really sweet. Strong flavours of orange juice with lemon added for a sour kick. The palate was still pretty sweet and not very refresh because of that reason. All in all...too sweet for me.

Bottle: Poured a red colored beer with almost no head or even carbonation. Taste is overpowered by strawberry and sugar. Taste is also taken over by the strawberry and the sugar, or maybe I should say the strawberry juice since I have hard time believing real strawberry were added to this mix. No malt or hops are noticeable in this mixture. Overall, I guess if you don’t expect to drink what is usually known as beer, you can enjoy this somewhat refreshing drink on a very hot summer day.

Cloudy orange-copper color. Aroma of strawberry candies. Quite artificial taste, sweet and fruity (not syrupy).
