0.33l can, huge thanks djoeye! Clearish golden body, off-white head. Odd creamy aroma, sweetish, nutty slightly, bit roughly herbal as it warms. Creamy, grainy taste, lightly buttery almost, lightly yeasty. Pretty much no hoppiness, no bitterness, bit prickly carbonation. Erm... not terrible, but far from the best. Bit nice can!

Gylden brun klar med hvitt skum. Lukter naltkarameller og noe bruna smør. Lett, søtlig smak mot noe av det samme dom i lukt. Kort. Flott sommerlig øl.

Can 50 cl. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Intense, bubblegummy aroma. Not sure I associate it with blood oranges and it's not unpleasant, but it's obviously deeply artificial. Light body, super dry with no malt presence. Everything is completely drowned in that fake blood orange flavor. It hets quite chemical and astringent towards the finish. I don't know what this thing is the Norwegians has with artificially flavored beers! It's.....out of control. 070824

Can 50 cl. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Clean, malty nose. Light, dry body with distinct malt and even some flowery hops. As always with Lite beers the finish is short with hardly any bitterness. 070824

Can courtesy of djoeye (huge thanks!), shared at the DP tasting. Dark golden body, off-white head. Caramelly, grainy malty aroma, somewhat soft, okay. Well, smells dark more than it looks dark. Somewhat woody caramelly taste, maybe vague coffee, ending dry, without bitterness. I mean.. decent? Also, lol, dark pilsner...
