Funny to drink this one Easter 25 – and it was released Easter 1995
It still have a quite fine carbonation level
Oxidized off course
Still ok caramel malty.
I surely have had it back then also.

Beer5000 (11295) reviewed Hansa Mango IPA from Hansa Borg Bryggerier 11 months ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
Can. Unclear pale golden body with a light, white head. Aroma is refreshing fruity with mango and some pale malt. Flavor is also refreshing with light pale malt, mango, hint of oranges and some zesty bitterness. The bitterness is moderate, but feels right in combination with the juicy flavor. Medium body and the same refreshing aftertaste. A decent fruity session IPA where you might still taste some malt and not just juice.
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5
Can. Unclear pale golden body with a big, foamy white head. Pretty distinct aroma of classic Belgium blonde. Pale malt, fruity yeast, esters and banana. Flavor is pretty much as expected from aroma, mild, smooth light pale malt, sweet, hint of wheat, fruity yeast with esters and a floral touch. Balanced in flavor and body, pleasant aftertaste. Not bad at all within the style. There is a lot of crappier versions of Blond out there than this.
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.5
Can. Clear golden body with a fine white head. Aroma is mostly like a regular pilsner, mild grain, pale malt, floral bitterness and hint of grass. Flavor seems also to be closer to a pilsner than anyting else, there is some fruity hops, but not much and not much bitterness either. Comparing with Clausthaler non alcoholic dry hopped pale lager there is clearly a more pronounced hop aroma and flavor. By all means, this is a nice and refreshing one, but I think this one aims more to the regular pilsner drinkers than craft beer enthusiasts.
Beer5000 (11295) reviewed CB Sørlands Blonde from Hansa Borg Bryggerier 11 months ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 3
Can. Hazy yellow body wit a small white head. Aroma is quite strong lime, coriander and soap. Flavor is dominated by the same slightly artificial lime/coriander/soapy thing. Not much hoppy bitterness here, but after a while the aftertaste feels a bit harsh like lime/lemon peel kinda harsh. Body becomes a bit thin and watery after a few sips. Could easily have been a light and refreshing blond with some lemon flavor, but this is simply too much and tastes more like a soapy Radler than blonde. Way to unbalanced, would not by again.
Beer5000 (11295) reviewed Borg Citra Blonde from Hansa Borg Bryggerier 11 months ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6
Can. Unclear orange golden body with a fluffy, lacing white head. Aroma has mild citric fruit and hint of grapefruit. Flavor is light, pale malt, some citric fruit and moderate bitterness. Medium to light bodied and rather short aftertaste. Nothing outstanding, but a drinkable blond that have some extra hops, not much but it gives a certain fruitiness to the beer.
