The aroma is a siple hoppy aroma. The color is yellow and it has an OK though fast disappearing head. The flavor is thin, sour, watery, and bitter - with no sweetness. A below average low-alcohol beer. All in all very bad - don't try it.

The usual golden strong pilsener colour, with a quickly disappearing head. Nose is sweet, with lots of maize instead of malt. Taste is very sweet, with some alcohol, but otherwise nice. You should drink this to get drunk only.

A beutiful golden brown color with an OK but fast disappearing head. The aroma is very slight with notes of sweetness. The flavor is very neutral; slightly sweet to start off, then malty and a little bitter in the end. It has a fine balance, but in general its a boring ale. I had expected much more since Vestfyen brews Refsvindinge AZ Ale no. 16 under licence, so they must know how to make a great ale.

A pale yellow beer with a fine whit head. The aroma is sweet and malty - a little light. The flavor is dominated by brewmash, but a little thin. It has an OK bitterness and an OK balance - it ends on a brewmashy note. A nice flavor for a pilsener which makes above average for the category.

Gets an extra point for the color, but the head disappears as soon as it's poured. The discount taste is slightly more malty than the ordinary Vestfyen lager, but still screams maize.

A dark brown beer with a fine head. The aroma is of sweet licorice with hints of sourness. The flavor is that of hay with hints of licorice. It is slightly sweet but ends on a bad dry hoppy/hay finish. Not a good beer at all - compared to the other danish Christmas hvidtøl this is by far the worst.

Amber colour, moderate head. Corn and hops aroma. Light bodied, but a distinct unpleasant bitterness. Funny name = \"The Night Express Train\" probably suggests that this beer is a fine night cap and will put you to sleep nicely. For sure, the flavour is no reason to keep you up. You might as well go to sleep. Goodnight!

Take an American standard with its corn sweetness, add a little more hops + alcohol and just a touch of spicyness (nutmeg?) - and you have this "Christmas brew". Not nearly as bad as I expected, this is still far from the quality of a Norwegian "klasse F" Christmas beer. I have no idea why they imported this stuff to Norway - in Denmark at least it''s cheap, here it''s expensive.

Nice Head and a clean light hop aroma. Unfortunately followed by a cardboard taste
