Oct 4, 2009 Bottled@SBWF2009, as Nyckel Original 5.2%. Golden colour, mediumseized white head. Aroma is hops, grass, fruits and mild yeastyness. Flavour is quite much the same. Not very exciting, but is atleast somewhat refreshing.

Oct 1, 2009 (Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 19 Sep 2009) Yellow colour with frothy, white head. Malty, bready nose with some grass and tropical fruit. Malty taste with notes of bread, grass and a touch of citrus. A decent grassy bitterness in the finish. On the thin side, with some malt sweetness. An average, non-exciting pale lager.

Oct 1, 2009 Bottled as "Nyckel Original" @SBWF 2009.
Pale yellow color, small white head. Sweet corn, slight diacetyl, some cardboard. Flavor is very similar: sweet corn like flavor, some diacetyl, quite malty but that’s about it. Interesting that Nyckel is a microbrewery brewing bulk lagers ...
