  Ægir Taco Fredag Mexican Lager
  rated 1.8 3 hours ago

  Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3

  440 ml can, from SPAR Jørpeland. ABV is 4.7%. Slightly hazy golden colour, moderate white head. Sweetish aroma of malts and maize / sweet corn, some grassy notes, a hint of caramel. The flavour has also some sweetness, but not as much as the aroma made me fear. A surprisingly distinct and sharpish metallic bitterness follows the sweetness. Unbalanced, unharmonious - not a beer I'll buy again.

  Ægir Dag Mango

  Aug. 2020: 330 ml can, from Det Gode Brygg, Kvadrat, Sandnes. ABV is 4.0%. Clear amber colour, moderate white head. Intense and repulsive aroma of artificial mango and orange essence. The flavour has much of the same artificial essence, but is not as sweet as I feared. Sharpish bitter finish. Unbalanced and unpleasant - by far the worst beer I've had from Ægir. Drainpour. Do us a service, and bury this recipe!

  Ægir Dag Sitrus Pale Ale

  Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

  May 2013: 500 ml bottle, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4%. Deep golden to amber colour, large white head. Strong aroma of American hops, citrus and pine notes. Light to thin body, dry flavour, some grapefruity and piney notes, medium bitter finish. An okay summer refreshment, but clearly not Ægir’s best beer.

  440 ml can, from SPAR Jørpeland. ABV is 4.0%. Deep golden to orange colour, large off-white head. Strong aroma of artificial "pineapple" essence. Light bodied. Flavour also of pineapple essence, but not as strong and sweet as the aroma made me fear. A slight bitterness in the finish.

  Frydenlund Juicy Pilsner
  rated 3.5 6 hours ago

  Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

  500 ml can, from SPAR Jørpeland. ABV is 4.5%. Clear pale golden colour, moderate white head. Moderate but nice aroma of citrus and tropical fruits, including lychee. The flavour has pleasant notes of citrus and lychee, fortunately not too sweet. Might well buy again, when I just want a nice summer refreshment. A tad more bitterness would not hurt, though.
