Bottled. Hazy yellow colour with small white head, which disappears quickly. Dry citrus aroma with hints of old half wet burnt cigarrettes. Flavour is very flowery with some weak hints of wheat.

Bottled. Dark brown, average head. Roasty and fruity with soapy mouthfeel. Very sweet and too light bodied. Note of plums and raisin. Traditional style Julöl, but not very succesful.

(Can 50 cl) Fully golden with a handsome, dense head. Typical soft Swedish lager with a hoppy aroma and a moderate bitterness. OK if not exactly thrilling. 160403

(Can 50 cl) Fully golden beer with a rather handsome head. Potent and full-bodied, but in spite of a rather marked sweetness it’s not sticky or overly alcoholic as so often for the style. Wee bitterness. Actually this is rather smooth and pleasant. 221002

(Bottle 33 cl) Amber golden with a tall, frothy head. Malty but not very full-bodied, actually this is a bit watery with a weak underlying sweetness and a ditto bitterness. Not bad - just not very exciting. 140402

(Can 50 cl) Decent golden colour with a nice head. Light sweetness balanced by an equally light bitterness. Quenching, drinkable and nothing more. 250202

(Can 50 cl) Very pale with a decent and lacing head. Pretty. But looks are deceiving, this is completely without flavour. It’s wet all right, it’s slightly bitter - and that’s about it. Light beers don’t have to be flavourless, but this organic certainly is. 230202

(Can 50 cl) "A beer with a little extra bite", is what the print on the can promises. Well, "bite" cannot really refer to the alcohol or the hops in this - only the beer’s name. Lovely can design though.
The beer is an ordinary pale golden lager with a nice head. Nicely balanced and decent all right, but certainly nothing spectacular - apart from the can. 180202

Bottled. Golden colour, brief head. Fruity and light bodied. Mellow, near this mouthfeel. Very low hop rate and not much malt character. Finishes with a hint of boiled vegetables.
