After 14 years on Ratebeer it's time for a change of scene!
I enjoy all styles of beers, accept for the crappy industrial lager stuff. Not especially keen on the race for 70,000 ticks. More interested in discovering new flavours and experiences. Cheers, Brian

33 cl can picked up at Systembolaget Vimmerby and poured into a footed pilsner glass. Clear golden colour with a dense white head. Sweet aroma with bread, pale malts, fruits, and grasses. The taste is light bitter. Medium body. Drying finish with lingering pale malts. Richer and more filling than the generic industrial lager.

33 cl bottle picked up at Systembolaget Vimmerby poured in to a tulip glass. Hazy golden colour with a big, white head. Fruity aroma with yeasts, grassy hoppy notes. Spicy, with some orange peel. The taste is bitter. Full body - rather filling. Dry and bitter finish. Definitely bitter, has a hint of candid sugar? Nice.

50 cl bottle picked up at Systembolaget. Love the label! Clear, amber golden colour with a medium sized off-white head. Sweet aroma with caramel malts, fruits, herbal hoppy notes, honey, and grasses. The taste is sweet. Medium to full body. Slightly drying fruity finish. To the sweeter side as far as Bocks go, otherwise excellently crafted.

50 cl bottle picked up at a Netto discounter, poured in to a tulip glass. Hazy, golden amber colour with a thin, white head. Fruity aroma with citrus, floral hoppy notes, grasses, and pale malts. The taste is bitter. Medium body. Dry and bitter finish. Not what I would call sophisticated, but a good amount dry, juicy bitterness in this one.
