(Can 56,8 cl) Courtesy of oh6gdx. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Discreet aroma and very anonymous aroma of malt. Medium-bodied with lightly sweet malt and a short, dry finish without much bitterness. Has an edge of cardboard. 130608

(Bottle) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty nose with grassy hops and notes of tropical fruit and sourish malty hints. Malty taste with tropical fruit, toffee, hints of vegetables and grassy hops in the finish. Moderate bitterness, lots of malt sweetness. Not really balanced, not really interesting but definitely drinakble.

Can. Yellow color with a dissolving white head. Light aroma of sweet malt, white bread and just a bit of hops. Sweet and malty taste with notes of caramel, white bread, fruit, almonds, some sourness and light bitterness.

Can. Sweetish and mineral, malty nose. Sweet and quite strongly malty flavor, some rust, minerals and warming alcohol. Very little bitterness. Sweet and dull.

Looks just like the normal version. The aroma is a bit stronger, as is the flavor. There’s a small metallic finish that I didn’t quite like and it tastes like the extra kick was added just for the sake of it.

Bottle 0.33 l. Dark golden with smallish fizzy head. Nose is deeply malty and a bit caramelly. Flavor is malty with slightly sour note and maybe even a bit roasted? Somewhat sour and acidic rather than sweet and full. Fizzy carb.

Bottle 0,33l. Golden colored with a creamy head that soon settled leaving patterns on the glass. Malty aroma. Sweet malty flavor with some fruity hints. Dry metallic bitter aftertaste. KI=6
