(Bottle 33 cl) Fully golden (colourings) and a nice, lacing head. Lovely soft mouthfeel, and some sweetish malt. Appears as if this beer has more decent ingredients than the standard cheap Vestfyen beer. 230999 (Bottle 33 cl) As "Vestfyen Krudtugle Guld". Dark golden (colourings again), decent head. Very watery with a light, malty sweetness and a discreet, late touch of hops. Very easy to drink and actually a pleasant surprise. Good value for money if it has to be cheap lager. 5/2/4/2/10=2.3 140799

(Bottle 33 cl) Very pale golden, and without the added colourings this would’ve been clear as water. Decent head though. This has less flavour than a non-alcoholic beer - there’s absolutely no trace of the 2,6% alcohol. Actually there’s no trace of anything at all. Closest referance must be spring-water. Fascinating indeed. Point for a certain quenching effect. 090899

(Bottle 33 cl) In my version simply called "Vestfyen Ren Pilsner", but I reckon the Krudtugle-version is the exact same beer just with a different label for the Aldi discount markets. "Ren" (pure) in this context means with no brewing-cereal. This is an all-malt beer. But it’s also a very well-hopped pilsener and hence it comes close to a typical North-German pils. Golden with a small head. Soft, a bit low in carbonation with a sweetish malt-base. 040799

Bottle. Fruity, maizy aroma. Peppery flavour. The alcohol is warming. Aftertaste has a certain sourish harshness.

[At Københavnske Øldage 2005] A red-orange beer with a nice off-white head. The aroma is sweet dominated by alcohol, but also with some hops - surprisingly much hops for the style. The flavor is sweet malty with hints of oranges and nuts, leading to an alcohol dry end.

[At Københavnske Øldage 2005] A copper colored beer with a disappearing off-white head. The aroma is malty with strong notes of alcohol. The flavor is sweet and again with strong notes of alcohol, combined with lesser notes of metal and malt. The end is dry and bitter. I’d guess this is a Strong European Lager and not a Pale Ale - it totally lacks fruityness and instead has way too much alcohol presence.

A light amber beer with an OK beige head. The aroma is sour and hoppy - must be the use of brewing cereal - I think this is what is called skunky. The flavor is slightly sweet to start off, then brewing cereal sour - a little like vitamin c, combined with notes of metal. And the body is thin.

An orange beer with no head. The aroma is perfumated and sweet. The flavor is very malty and brewmashy with a bit sourness from the corn it is brewed on. Slightly watery - but a very average pilsner.
