0,33 l can. Pale pils. Small white head, very thin body and doesn’t taste all that much. Quite a lot CO2 which gives it a slightly bitter aftetaste. There are better alternatives.

Can (thanks yngwie!). Golden colour, mediumsized white head, some lace. Aroma is maize, sweet malts, some mild grassy hops as well as some tones of rubber/metal. Flavour is harsh grass, some rubber and mild olive oil -like notes. Slightly oily palate. Ugh.

(Can, ABV 4.7%). Clear golden color, decent white head, some lace. Metallic, vegetably, malty aroma. Kind of flat mouthfeel. Light papery, grainy and harsh flavor with tiny notes of green apples, but overall very tasteless. No bitterness. Quickly vanishing flavors. Useless.

Can. High creamy white lasting head. Clear yellow body. Very sweet barley malt aroma. Flavor less sweet but rather watery with little hops bitterness or other characteristics. Low carbonation, short aftertaste.

Pours a two finger white head that fades quickly to a thin layer leaving a good lace. Clear amber color. Good carbonation and medium bodied. Skunky nose. Flavor is hoppy with bitter skunky finish. 39 NOK ~ $7.80 for a 330ml blue bottle apparently brewed for the Hurtigruten cruise ship. From my notes - 7/14/2008. ABV is 4.7%
