33cl bottle dated best before 18.03.2022. Served in a cut tumbler. Very nice appearance with clear golden body, a nice white head, and big bubbles rising towards the surface. Light grassy grain flavor but very little hop flavor. Refreshing and with no real defects, but not too flavorful or otherwise worth recommending.

L- Medium golden colour, clear, 5mm white head.
S- I get nothing from this, not like water, but a light adjunct absence of character.
T- Not good, adjunct, causing non-malt sweetness, leading to complete loss of goodwill in this beer. Ingredients list 'Caribbean cane sugar'. Cheap corner-cutting => cheap tasting beer.
F- I don't find this or other adjuncts refreshing, the fake mouth-feel dominates all.
O- Very disappointing; wouldn't wish to drink it again if free.
I bought a 330ml can from the Vinbudin in Reykjavik. BB: 15/7/2020. Price IsK291, as near as matters £2.

Mmmmm... Light tasting beer... Light beer Essentially... Which is to say, probably not better than Miller light or anything of the sort. There are better beers from this brewery.

Pours a clear, gold colour. Smells o light malts, pilsner yeast/malts, cereal, typical "good pilsner" crispness. Tastes like cereal malts, slightly sweet, crisp, refreshing, just a normal, good pilsner.

Bought a bottle from the Vinbudin in Reykjavik. Poured cold into, of all things, a Lindemans Kriek glass. The resulting 2 fingers of white head disappeared quite quickly leaving a bit of lacing atop a fizzy, golden beer. Mildly sweet aroma, nothing too distinctive. Taste is nondescript, very much standard cheap pilsner with nothing standing out but a surprisingly pleasant graininess . Mouthfeel is ok, the fizziness dies down quite quickly to acceptable levels but the beer is still drinkable even after 15-20 minutes in the glass. Overall, this Feroese pilsner is nothing to write home about but it is drinkable and could maybe work as a session beer.

On tap in the Faroe Islands tent at the ONS 2008, Stavanger. Served ice cold (= minimal taste). Golden colour, low head. Moderate sweetish aroma. Fizzy mouthfeel. Bland pale lager flavour, nothing particularly offensive, but nothing to make you happy either. The Faroese singer Hanus G. Johansen made my day, the beer did not.
