Sommerøl from Berentsens Brygghus

4.1/10 — Appearance 5 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4
Rerate May 2024, 500 ml can from Kiwi Tau: Crystal clear pale golden colour, moderate white head. Sweetish aroma of pilsener malts and newmown grass. Light bodied, but a bit too sweet flavour, moderate bitterness. Berentsens have better beers than this one.

Original rating, May 2004: (330 ml bottle). Typical fizzy pale Norwegian "sommerøl / summer beer". Maybe slightly sweeter and a tad maltier than most of our "sommerøl" - a pale lager style which is the work of the devil, aimed at people who think (or are fooled into thinking) that an ordinary pilsener would be too heavy (sic!) for them on a warm summer’s day. Oh well ... I will rerate when they actually have started brewing this beer in Egersund, but I don’t expect too much - style considered.

6.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Shared can at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours clear golden with white head. Aroma of bread, cookies, notes of floral hops. Tastes slightly sweet with balancing bitterness. Medium bodied, long well balanced aftertaste. This is a good one, but definitely not a pilsner, as the label says, rather a Helles Bock.

5.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 8 Overall 5.5
Can. A clear, golden colored beer with a small white head. The aroma is quite malty, lighlty alcoholic like a typical strong pilsner, with yellow apple, grains and bread. Some corn-like notes too, along with grass and a spiced hint. It's full-bodied, very lightly warming and softly carbonated, with a gentle carbonation. Corn, yellow apple, grass and hay in the flavor, with bread hints and a very light spiced and alcoholic touch. A decent strong pilsner, not a beer I'll repeat though. 240421

4.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 4.5 Flavor 4.5 Texture 4 Overall 5
500 ml can, from Kiwi Tau. ABV is 4.3%. Crystal clear and very pale golden colour, moderate to small white head. Sweetish aroma of pilsener malts and newmown grass. Citric mouthfeel and flavour, moderate herbal hops. Quite refreshing, better than I feared.
