330 ml slimline can, as Tuborg NUL Øl & Citrus, from BilkaToGo, Skalborg. Cloudy and very pale straw colour, moderate to small white head. Aroma and flavour of lemonade / lemon & lime soda. Just a little malts in the background. Very refreshing, like a lemon soda.

330 ml slimline can, as Tuborg Nul Øl & Mango Passion, from BilkaToGo, Skalborg. ABV is 0.0%. Hazy pale yellow colour, moderate but shortlived white head. Aroma of mango and passionfruit, kind of artificial. Medium sweet flavour, notes of said fruits, hints of malts in the background. Not something I'll buy again.

A very pleasant dunkel, despite the relatively low ABV. Much better than Carlsberg Lagerøl. Beautiful colour, malty flavour. It's a shame that Carlsberg (who owns Tuborg) retired this beer.

500 ml can, a "summer beer" brewed for the Norwegian market. ABV is 4.5%. Somehow macro brewers have managed to convince Norwegian swill drinkers that they need "summer beers" that are even paler, thinner and more boring than their standard pilseners. And the Tuborg brand is Carlsberg’s "discount" brand in Norway, so you know what to expect ... Very pale yellow colour, low head. Grassy and artificial candy notes in the aroma. Flavour ... well, what flavour? This beer is nearly void of any flavour, there’s just a faint acidity to let you know that you’re not drinking water. Not worthy of the name "beer".

330 ml clear bottle, bought in Denmark. ABV is 4.9%. Very pale colour, decent head and lacing. Weak citrussy aroma. Flavour? Nearly flavourless, carbonated water with just a faint hint of crystal malts and citrus. Gets an extra point for not being quite as offensive as some other raters made me expect. The hints of dishwashing liquid in the finish are, after all, not overwhelming ....

500 ml can, from Superbrugsen Skødstrup, Denmark. ABV is 5.2%. Brewed with hop extract. Hazy pale yellow colour, huge white head. Strong and typical hefeweizen aroma of cloves and ripe bananas, hints of candy. Moderate flavour with notes of cloves and banana, hints of citrus. Minimal hops. Light bodied and easy drinking.

500 ml bottle, as "Tullibardine 1488 Majestic Whisky Ale", bought in Edinburgh. ABV is 7.0%. Brewed and bottled by Traditional Scottish Ales Ltd. for the Tullibardine Distillery, using the distillery’s spring water and malted barley. Clear and deep golden colour, pours very fizzy, when the fizziness subsides just a small white head remains. Strange aroma, sweetish / sugary and oaky, with peaty and fruity notes. The flavour is very sweet and alcoholic. There are notes of whisky casks and peat as expected, but I also expected something far drier and maybe more "scotch & club soda"-like, not this overwhelming sweetness. Are there any hops in this beer at all? Still, when you get used to the sweetness, the beer is drinkable - but remains a disappointment.

Nov. 2012: Shared 500 ml bottle, from Voldby Købmandsgård. ABV is 4.2%. Pale golden colour, low white head. Very moderate aroma, some sweetish and grainy, hints of hay. At least it is not offensive. Light bodied as expected. Clean pilsener flavour, too little of everything, but again: not offensive. Might work well in the Kenyan heat, not on a late autumn day in Norway.

The last beer of my 7 beers flight at the brewery tap. Dark orange to copper to amber colour, white head. Very hoppy aroma and flavour, but also some sweetness and fairly distinct crystal malts. Very bitter finish.

Damn Americans and their peat smoked "Scottish / Scotch ales"! Very dark reddish brown colour. Peat smoke in both aroma and flavour, and malts of course. Some hops in the finish. The beer is actually quite well made, but as you might have guessed, peat smoke is not really my thing. (Beer No. 6 of my 7 beers flight at the brewery tap.)

Beer No. 3 of my 7 beers flight at the brewery tap. Copper coloured beer, white head. Malty aroma and flavour first, nutty and caramel notes, then a fairly solid bitterness in the finish. A decent steam beer / Cal Common, probably more bitter than Anchor Steam.

Beer No. 4 of my 7 beers flight at the brewery tap. Golden colour, white head. The brewery´s deScription says it all: "A very hop forward, in-your-face IPA. Citrussy, grapefruity, piney." Good beer, the best of my flight. Next!

12 fl. oz bottle, thanks to BA richgo6. 12.5 degrees Plato, 36 IBU. ABV is 5.1%. Amber coloured beer, decent off-white head. Very nice aroma of fruity hops, notes of grapefruit, rambutan and blackcurrant leaves, hints of toffee and resin too. The flavour is maltier and less hoppy than the aroma made me expect, but the hops are still noticeable. Moderate resiny notes, some sweetness, quiet finish. Not bad.

750 ml corked & caged bottle, from Vinmonopolet Egersund. ABV is 11.2%. Very dark brown colour, nearly black. No head, minimal carbonation. Aroma of malts, brown kandij sugar syrup, molasses. Flat mouthfeel, some warming alcohol. The flavour has the same elements as the aroma, also distinct alcohol and noticeable bittering hops. Not a great beer.

500 ml can, had this served unexpectedly at the quayside somewhere in the Ryfylke fjords (it’s not imported to Norway, as far as I know). As it was for free, I couldn’t object to having to drink it from the can, which means I can’t really evaluate the appearance (I trust those who say it’s average or slightly above). Aroma of Saaz and possibly Hallertau hops. Clean tasting refreshing pilsener, nothing offensive, nothing remarkable. I’d be happy to drink it again, if it’s for free - but would like a glass the next time!
