No Worries
Lervig Aktiebryggeri

While largely a standard process, No-Los often reflect the micro's priorities. Lervig's priorities are to be off-beat and have a somber fun, suitable to their climate. So it is with No Worries. It Looks somber, almost no carbonation like one of the BA stouts... but Now Worries has a pretty, pretty pale. No Worries Smells also are average, some sweet malt and some hops in the back... but not much to attract attention. Lervig's quirkinesss kicks in at the Taste, which is quite flavourful... and not sure how they do that. Medium-mouthed despite appearing flat... also a northern quirk.

The good thing about No-Los is you can have one with lunch and enjoy a beer and not have to take a nap afterwards. (Although this afternoon, it still might be voluntary.)

My second from Lervig. (My first was almost 7 years ago and was also a pils.) They are growing up and are way prolific with some 228 brews in only 8 years. They have an interesting menu of bar food. And they have a genuine line of No-Los. All of which is pretty good achievement when catering to tourists and somber Nordics.

 

330 ml can, from Rema 1000, Tau. ABV is 0.5%. Slightly hazy pale yellow colour, moderate white head. Aroma of citrus and spruce. Decent mouthfeel for a n/a beer. Hoppy flavour, notes of grapefruit and resin, with a rather sharp bitterness in the finish. Might buy again, as this is a better-than-nothing beer when you have to drive.
