Bottle: Pale golden, thin, rather firm white head, visible carbonation; faint malty, grainy dusty, carboardy nose; mild bitter sweet flavour, light bodied to watery; short sweet-bitter finish with a faint sourish-citrousy touch. Not really a Pils, could be a Dortmunder.......Drinkable

(bottle) Clear pale golden colour, diminishing frothy white head. Sweet grainy nose; stale and slightly grainy taste, unpleasant and unbalanced bitter finish. There are certainly better examples of a diet beer.

330 ml bottle from a local grocery store (Hemköp). Light clear yellow color. Small white head, not lasting.Mix of malty and fruity scent.A bit metallic taste. Faint malty and hoppy taste as well.Fairly high bitterness, especially for a low alcohol beer. Quite a good lager beer, when you’re able to purchase it in your convinient store on the corner it’s even better.

Bottle. Bready, doughy aroma. Pale yellow colour, rocky white head. Malty flavour with some aroma hops. Medium bitterness. Leaves a rubbery feeling on my tongue.

Süßlicher, dann muffig herber Beginn. Im Verlauf bitterer, billig hopfig, kaum vorhandener Nachgeschmack. 8/8/7/7/6/6
Earlier Rating: 6/16/2011 Total Score: 3
Das Billigbier sieht im Glas nahezu perfekt aus, die Krone sitzt spitze. An der Flasche könnte noch gefeilt werden, besonders das ’Premium’ in der knatschroten Krone passt nicht richtig zu dem Billigbier. Der feinherbe Antrunk weist einen muffigen Unterton auf, der sich nach einer kurzen Abwesenheit im Mittelteil im Abgang wieder ausbreitet. Im Laufe der Verkostung scheint sich dieses muffige Aroma jedoch immer weiter zurückzuziehen, die leichte Wässrigkeit, die an seine Stelle tritt, kann wohl kaum als besser bezeichnet werden. Im Nachgeschmack kommt also noch eine mittelbittere Note hinzu. Im großen und ganzen für ein Billigbier durchausakzeptabel, wie schon vermutet passt das ’Premium’ jedoch nicht. Test vom 14.2.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 13,9,9,8,9,9 - 9,25

Clear golden color and mildly effervescent with a thin white head that lasts pretty well. Not much lacing evident. Aroma of bready malt and Lager-like hops. Light-bodied and very clean on the tongue. Mild malt and caramel flavors along with a bit of hops. The finish is mildly sweet malt and corn and does not linger. Below average, I would expect more from a Dortmunder from the city of Dortmund.

Bottle: Golden coloured, fluffy, mid-sized white head, quite stable and lacing; malty, a bit hoppy nose, with a tinge of cardboard or soap; sweetish, maybe also soapy flavour; short bitter-sweet, a bit citrusy finish. A very basic Export, not really necessary..................

Bottle: Pale golden coloured, small fluffy white head, quite stable, sticking to the glass; grassy, mild hops in the nose, pale malt, too; slightly sweetish, malty flavour (a bisquity malt character) with a moderate, later dry bitterness, light bodied, pleasant mouthfeel; moderate, lingering bitter finish. A decent, tasty Pils, well balanced....................

Bottle: Dark amber coloured, medium-sized fluffy tanned head, quicklöy diminishing; almost sweetmalty nose with a distinctive touch of roasted malt and a tinge of molasses; slightly sweetish flavour; slightly malty finish with a moderate bitterness in the aftertaste. Far away from being a top-fermented brew, tastes like a drinkable Dunkles...............................
