500 ml bottle. Golden color, frothy white head. Malty aroma. Somewhat bitter flavor, malty finish. Medium-light body, medium-high carbonation. Straightforward pale lager: drinkable, but not spectacular.

Can. Golden, average color w/ a white head. Malty aroma, notes of banana actually. Flavour of malt, lightly of bitter almonds and banana. Quite thin but it’s drinkable.

Big very white head. Yellow body with carbonation. Fruity straw aroma with grassy notes and some malts. Sweetish grainy straw and chalk taste with grassy vaguely alcoholic notes. Slightly harsh, yet faintly oily, mouthfeel. Light butterscotch. Dryish milky grassy aftertaste. Not bad. (0.5l bottle, Alko, Helsinki.)

Oh sweet boredom, so run of the mill that I wish the mill would stop running. Corn and grass, watery stuff.
