alexsdad06 (16451) - West Chester, Ohio, USA - MAY 4, 2021UPDATED: MAY 4, 2021 This is a backlog rating from 2008 from a bottle, from notes. When I had this beer it was average to below average for the style and not something I wanted to have again or I just didn't get back to my notes because of my technology at the time, work and/or family. Words to describe this beer are toasted malts, caramel, bready, lightly earthy.
kustie (3602) - Tampere, FINLAND - FEB 24, 2020UPDATED: FEB 24, 2020 Amber color with off-light head. Aroma has caramel, toffee and malt. Taste is malty sweet with long somewhat bitter aftertaste. Flavors of caramel, grass, malt.
JoTheO (690) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - OCT 11, 2019UPDATED: OCT 11, 2019 Bottle 330ml. Clear amber with a slightly beige head. Malty aroma with some sweet biscuits. Taste is pure and rather bitter, some sweetness initially. Carbonation a bit sharp.
EerieDrinks (1194) - Malm�, SWEDEN - OCT 10, 2019UPDATED: OCT 10, 2019 2 finger off-white head.
Semi-clear, deep amber to copper coloured beer.
Aroma of caramel, malts (both roasted and regular), slightly metallic, wonderful wholewheat breadiness, raisins, fig jam and overripe citrus.
Taste is similar but with a clear metallic and alcoholic presence. Brighter hop character here aswell.
Mouthfeel is oily for the style with a light crispiness to it. Full bodied. Very sessionable. Medium-high bitterness. Medium-low carbonation. Slightly sticky. Lingers on for a good while.
Overall: Could definitely be altered in taste but glad to finally have tried this somewhat (Swedish) legend of a beer. Nice Lager!
