Small very white head. Amber body with light small-bubbled carbonation. Light orangey rubbery aroma with malty notes. Dry-sweetish citric dusty fruity taste with rubbery artificial notes. Light body. Mild mouthfeel. Dry strawy peppery aftertaste with citric grainy notes. Also an acidic tinge to it. Disappointing. (0.33l bottle, Systembolaget, Stockholm.)

Bottled. A golden beer with an orangey head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw as well as a bit of hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops and malt - but a bit light for my liking, leading to a lightly bitter finish.

Pours deep golden with a steady head. Sweet, grainy aroma. Flavour is dry and grainy with sourish notes of mashed apples. Where’s all the hops the label promised?

Deep blond color. In the aroma there is a light smell of dirty water. Boring flavor like all Spendrups Lagers; the mouthfeel if possible is rounder than the average. Correct bitterness. Bad.

Bottle from Systembolaget. How should a macro brewers interpret a modern american lager? Of course it will be thiner and less hoppy than its cocky ad text and the US micros! They didn´t brew it for us to analyze...

Bottle. One would have expected a lot more from this beer on the basis of the comercial description. There is more hops in this compared with a regular pale lager from spendrups, although its still lame.

330ml bottle picked up at Systembolaget, Gyllentorget in Linköping. Amber coloured body over a small, white head. Lighter aroma of grass and pale malts. Malts and hints of dry, leafy hops in flavour. Soft carbonated. Rather thin and empty in the mouth. About drinkable (hotel room, 06.02.2010).
