[At Jyske Øldage 2004, Kolding] A yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is sour from the brewing cereal used, while the flavor is of caramel and fruit on a sour brewing cereal background.

Golden/light amber colour. Cidery aroma with grains and higher alcohols. Somehow, though, it’s not harsh. OK, the taste is a little harsh, alcoholic, cidery...bleh.

Bottled. Pale golden, brief head. Sugary aroma. Sweet, clean and fairly fruity. Hides the alcohol quite well, which is the most positive remark I had about this beer...

A yellow beer with a small head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet malty. A very boring pilsener.

Blond color. Ordinary Pils, but enjoyable, with some residual sweetness and a quite strong bitterness; for a warm spring day in the sun…

Bottled. Corn aroma. Sweet, mellow and bold. Another lousy industrial lager.

Blond color. When a Strong Lager almost gets fruity… and with some sweetness of course. But, overall, boring.

Blond color. Light aroma, with some alcohol. Poor, oily, sweet strong lager, with a light lollipop aftertaste.

A yellow beer with a fast disappearing head. The aroma is sweet and malty - which is the ingredients in the flavor too - an average beer.

An orange beer with next to no head. The aroma is very sweet with no complexity. The flavor is of an OK maltblend with only slight notes of the alcohol content and a good palate. A fine beer for a barley wine -but not my style.
