500 ml bottle, ABV is 7.5%. Will probably be imported to Norway soon. Deep golden colour, big white head. Aroma of malts with a hint of caramel, also floral hops, a hint of honey. The medium sweet flavour is moderately malty with some honeyish notes, a hint of caramel again. The alcohol is noticeable, but not as disturbing as in some Scandinavian lagers of this strength. Medium bitter hops in the finish.

500 ml bottle, as Primátor Svetlý, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4%. Pale golden colour, big white head. Typical Czech pilsener aroma of sweetish malts and grassy and floral Saaz hops, hints of honey. Light bodied of course, but very refreshing, with a better presence in the flavour of both malts and Saaz hops than you’d expect from 4% pilsener.

Rerate, 500 ml bottle, as Primátor Premium Dark. ABV is 4.8%. Will be imported to Norway. Mahogany coloured beer, big beige head. Nice aroma of brown bread and caramel. Malty flavour with notes of brown bread and caramel again, slightly roasty, low bitterness. Original rating: (500 ml bottle, bought in Sweden). I somehow managed to delete my original comments here, damn! But this is still a nice dunkel, deep reddish brown colour, decent head. Flavour is malty and bready with a moderate but nice roastiness, notes of caramel, moderately sweet. I would like some more hops in the finish, but that’s the Czech dunkel style, I guess.

500 ml bottle, my wife bought this one for me in Prague. Typical hefeweizen appearance, hazy golden colour, large white head. Aroma is also typical h.w.: strong notes of cloves, banana and citrus - nice. Flavour is more citrussy than some German h.w.s, cloves too, fairly light bodied, could have been more complex. Not bad though.

(500 ml bottle). The Swedish 3.5% weak grocery store version of Pripps 1828 Export (5%). Deep golden colour. Moderate hops in the aroma. Acceptable hops in the flavour and aftertaste. Not too bad for a weak Pripps beer (you don't expect much!)

I got this pale swill lager in a 4.7% grocery store version in Norway some years ago, ABV in Sweden is now 5.2% (only available at Systembolaget). According to other reviewers, the slightly increased alcohol hasn't helped much. Typical pale lager colour, aroma is weak and unpleasant. Nasty metallic and watery flavour. Not to be recommended!

500 ml brown bottle, as Pripps Jul, from Systembolaget post-Christmas 2009. ABV is 5.0%. Mahogany coloured beer, big off-white beige head. Sweetish fruity aroma, also notes of caramel malts, hints of Christmas spices. The flavour has notes of münchener and caramel malts, baked goods, sweet and slightly spicy, also with a certain fruitiness. Very moderate hops in the finish. Overall surprisingly decent for a beer from Pripps / Carlsberg Sweden.

Cask halfpint at The George (JDW), Croydon. Copper colour, white head. Moderate malty aroma. The flavour is medium dry, with a nice balance between the malts and hops, very good for a 3.7% ale.

330 ml bottle, from Voldby Købmandsgård. ABV is 6.6%. Brewed for Brasserie Vanuxeem by Brasserie du Bocq. Deep golden colour, slightly hazy, huge white head. Aroma of herbal and grassy continental hops, also some spicy notes. The flavour is sweet (maybe too sweet) with notes of white kandi sugar, some fruity and spicy hints. Drinkable, but not the greatest Belgian ale I’ve had.
