Pale yellow beer, thin bubbly head. Aroma of grain, metal, plastic. The taste is mostly mettalic, with some sweet notes. Thin watery body. Abrupt finish. What else would you expect from the Ice-beer. Forget it.

BOTTLE 50CL.

Look: clear ruby-brown with a small beige head.
Aroma:: Quite simple. Caramel/burnt sugar, some light licorice.
Taste:: Caramel, dark roasted bread, very light roast.


More like a beefed up dunkel, which is pretty sweet and simple, than a baltic porter.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy pale straw with airy but stable white head. Clear aroma of yeast, hops, and malt. Sweetish flavour of malt, with notes of hops and banana. Sourish and bitter aftertaste. Not bad, but nothing impressive, either.
