Norwegian #1. Discreetly swigged tins on the bus from Torp. Watery grassy hop, old sock and maize butteriness aroma. Opens with a respectable hit of bitterness but tires into buttered mealy vanilla and popcorn. Creamy nitro m/f from the tin. Pleasant adjuncty lager. With a side order of sock.

19.06.2009, 0,5l Can. The colour is pale yellow. Thin white head. Aroma is a little sweet malty with a flower-like hop aroma. I think this is a refreshing and good pale lager.
