A: Amber gold. White head and leaves heavy lacings on the glass.

S: Hoppy, flowers, sour oranges; almost grapefruit taste. Some spices aswell. If wouldn't known that it was a lager I would probably have said AIPA.

T:Citric fruits and quite much water. Bitternes is average for a lager. Aftertaste is bitter citric fruits. No AIPA here though.

O: Everything but the taste is really good. A little more "rounder" taste and it would be a great lager.

Pours a kind of amber gold. Flavor is uninspiring. Just seems like a half hearted attempt to make a mass appeal lager (at best.) Decent, but would hope for much more from this brewery in particular. And really, they should be delivering. But it's a lager and perhaps they are used to making ales.

The colour is deep gold; the liquid clear. The two finger head is off-white and compact; it leaves some lacing while it slowly sinks down.

The smell is sweet and hoppy with a mild note of honey. Some weak fruity flavours, a medium strong bitterness and a hint of wood.

The taste is bitter-sweet with distinct notes of fresh wood and hints of exotic fruits. The growing bitterness got a metallic flavour, but the hops are overall mild. Some sawdust in the aftertaste as well as a moderate sweetness and a metallic bitterness.

The carbonation is medium strong; the bubbles small. The liquid is semi-smooth.

A surprisingly plain brew from Dugges. Still quite drinkable, though.

This beer comes in a 50 cl long-necked brown bottle. The orange label got a white stare with the name in blue writing. Looks kind of boring.

A: The color is redish golden. The head is large and creamy white, stays for quite some time before it dissipates into medium lacings.

S: Piney from the American floral hops, but also citric. Sweet bready malt.

T: The floral hops from the smell are a bit more held back in the taste, but still present. The malt isn't as sweet. Beside that, no surprises from the smell.

M: Medium body and carbonation. The liquid is rather smooth and creamy. Aftertaste lingers for some time, almost only bitter.

D: Nice beer that stands out from other Swedish lagers (macro-ones).

A clear orange amber beer with a white head leaving some lacing.

The smell is sweet, bread notes, but also sour lemon and bitter oranges.

The taste is beginning rathre sweetly, biscuits and syrup, then turning over to a more vinegar sourness and some metallic taste.

Medium high carbonation, a rather sparling feeling. A light body and rather watery.

The beer is a bit uneven, a nice bitterness but lack some maturity.
