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

Golden coloured. Fairly clean, relatively dry and unusually bitter for a Danish lager. Plain but refreshing.

Bronze; caramel accent; light, bland, slightly plasticy. Unworthy of attention.
