The colour is yellow with a tint of gold. The airy white foam forms a quickly disappearing white head.
The smell is sweet and malty with notes of rye bread and golden syrup. No bitterness at all.
The taste is a bit chemical and very sweet (saccharine-style) with lots of anonymous malts. There are almost no signs of hops at all, just a little artificial bitterness in the finishing. The aftertaste is a bit flowery with a sweet bread-like taste - much like drinking a wheat loaf.
Carbonation is medium strong with lots and lots of microscopic bubbles that builds foam in the mouth.
This is a genuine sweet boring Swedish low-budget lager. The only interesting about it is that is was created as a "cheap copy" of the "Pripps Blå" beer, once the most sold beer in Sweden. The thing is, Pripps (later Carlsberg Sverige) are brewing them both.
