330ml can on flight FI 325 from Oslo to Reykjavik (31.08.06). Bright straw yellow body with a thin white foam. Slightly malty aroma. Flavour has notes of sweet corn and hops. Thin palate. Lively carbonated.

(can) Clear yellow colour with a mid-sized diminishing frothy white head. Very shy and slightly sweet corny aroma, slightly acidic with poor traces of hops. Watery mouthfeel, light bodied, mild bitter flavour with a sourish touch, fizzy mouthfeel; dry, slightly bitter, slightly tart & slim finish. Pretty poor brew, but I was grateful to get a six-pack of Gull at one of the rare Vínbúð before crossing the Sprengisandur in August 2004.

Can (a gift from MoritzF): Pale golden, mid-sized clean white rocky head, lively carbonation; sweet grainy nose with a touch of lemon and some traces of a grassy hoppiness; light bitter flavour; mild bitter-citrousy finish. Ther’s nothing wrong with this, but they are a little bit too proud of their clean icelandic water: they put too much of it into the brew......

At first glance - a very fast glance - the can reminded me a lot of Miller Lite - but this version is probably made with the cleanest glacier water from Iceland...
A light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is primarily of straw, while the flavor has notes of both malt and straw. The body is as thin as cold water coming right from the glacier. I find nothing wrong - just plain boring.

Light blond color, no head. Light flavor, with some sweetness and some cereals. Inoffensive.

Hazy blond color. The aroma is lightly malty, but the taste is very watery.

(Can 50 cl) Very pale golden with a small, white head. Very thin and watery body with no real traces of malt. Light sourness, light bitternes - everything about this beer really is light, so I reckon it keeps its promises. 150306

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a pilsener golden with a small, white head. Lovely floral, hoppy nose that doesn’t last long though. Medium body with sweet malt and a vague underlying tartness from what I believe is brewing cereal. Very discreet - almost absent - bitterness. 260206

(Can 50 cl) Pours a pale pilsener golden with a small, white head. Good, full body with distinct alcohol and a light hop bite in the finish. But certainly drinkable for a strong lager. 120206

Hazy blond color. Virtually no aroma. The taste is in the beginning missing, just like a Strong Lager without being oily, then it has a strange chemical touch; warming alcohol. Useless.

A hazy light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of citrus and corn, while the flavor is sweet malty, and the body thin. Boring.
