Apr 2, 2005 Bottle. The colour is golden yellow; the head is airy, white and two fingers thick.
The smell got lots of notes from aroma hops and a grand bitterness with notes of wood. There is also a sweet malty note. Well done!
The carbonation is just right, pleasing and fresh with small bubbles.
The taste is well balanced with lots of bitterness (Saaz hops?); a fine body with some honey in the malts make it very drinkable. The aftertaste is long with lots of fine bitterness.
The best German-style pilsner from Sweden? It might just be this one!

Jun 1, 2008 33cl bottle @ the rake. Definitely my favourite lager outside of austria. Floral hop nose. Golden colour, slowly diminishing white head. Soft metal and spruce notes in flavour. Elegant bitter notes in the finish. beautiful beer. Big fan! i agree with yespr. Why did they retire it i don’t know.

Jul 27, 2006 Bottle. Clear golden in colour with a white head. A very wellbalanced lager. Both fruity, hoppy, grassy and malty and sweet. But it all just fits in somehow. Very nice.

Apr 28, 2007 Updated: Oct 5, 2007Bottle (ugly), 33 cl. Deep clear golden with medium fluffy white head. Bready, fruity, grainy malt, with the typical NO fresh-from-the-acre touch. Citric and grassy hops add to the character. Medium bodied with nice carbonation. Fantastic balance, with a moderate but tangible bitterness. A subtle and very refreshing lager.

Apr 26, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow to orange with a one finger thick slowly diminishing white head. Very floral hops aroma. Flavour is light pinewood and loads of more floral notes. Mild caramel malt base with a light breadish note as the beer heats up. Growing dry bitterness in the finish. Reminds me a bit about a fresh Orval, I don’t get at all why this has been retired. One of my all-time favourites.

Apr 12, 2003 I love this lager for its extremely bitter, citric, hoppy palate. It looks like thousands other lagers, but the taste... the taste is just one and only in the world.
