Miguel brought it to me from Iceland. In Teku glass. At dinner, with bratwurst sausages. Very correct. Pleasant and easy drinking, with nothing out of place. Better than our industrial lagers

Clear yellow color. Large white head that dissipates quickly. Some lace.
Aroma of sweet malt and floral hops.
Grainy taste.
Light-bodied, easy-drinking.

Can. Clear golden color. White head. Biscuit and bready malts. Earthy hops. Kind of bland. It’s not bad, just nothing I’d need to drink again. A bit metallic finish.

Pale straw yellow transparent brew. Snow white head production is excellent, lacing is fine, but retention is lacking.
AAL nose right from the pour: clean and somewhat neutral, with herbal hops, flowers, honey, and an over-sweet pale malt base.
Flavor follows: it's overly sweet, with a reasonably balanced bite up front but an aftertaste that ruins my palate.
Lively and crisp; oily finish.

A- Perfectly clear golden yellow body into a becher with a one finger foamy white cap. Decent retention and thickness leading to spotty lace.
S- Pretty much just pale cereal grains, a touch of pale fruits and some lager funky yeast.
T- Follows the nose with a very light flavor profile that at least feels whole and lacks any obvious corn sweets. Pale fruits, crackery bready light grains, lager yeasty spice and medium sweetness.
MF- Very light bodied with a touch of foamy and crispy texture. Moderately high carbonation.
A light easy drinker with nothing great and nothing awful about it.
