look: 3.5 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 2.5

A very light straw colored and clear beer, a white head leaving some lacing.

The smell is rather weak, some grains, a bit acidity, vinegar and metallic.

The taste is somewhat sour, lime twist, very little malt, some bitterness, rather pure and unobtrusive. A faint oiliness, like a very mild low-fat cheddar.

Rather high carbonation, a light body, a somewhat dry finish.

Ecologic or not, a very standard euro pale lager. Not really my cup of tea, best usage is on a warm summer day or in a hot sauna.

Serving type: can

look: 3 | smell: 2 | taste: 2 | feel: 2 | overall: 2

This beer comes in a white 33 cl can, with writing in green. The symbols of the three towns (Stockholm, Gothenborg and Malmoe) in golden over the writing.

A: The pour is strawcolored with a really large airy white head. Not to fast dissipation leaves some nice lacings.

S: Corn and sweet malt, not very well balanced. Faint bitterhops.

T: Corn and sweet malt, faint citric and bitter notes. But overall not a strong taste.

M: Light body and medium carbonation with small kind of smooth bubbles. Aftertaste is short-lived and only faint bitter.

D: This is a rather weak Euro Pale Lager, acctually it reminds me more of an American Adjunct Lager.

1.65/5  rDev -21.4%
look: 2.5 | smell: 1.5 | taste: 1.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 1.5

The white airy head sinks slowly, leaving no lacing. The clear liquid is straw yellow.

The smell got semi-sweet notes of cheap white bread and a bitter chemical flavour. Sour hints of boiled vegetables and cabbage. It is overall rather simple.

The taste is over-sweet, almost queasy. Flavours of cabbage and dough. The aftertaste got some chemical bitter notes plus a heavy sweetness. Salt in the finish.

The carbonation is mild, the small bubbles soft. The liquid is semi-smooth.

An unpleasant beer, full of off-flavours. Yuck.
