1233 Tuborg Classic Denmark Vienna / Amber Lager 2.7

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

July 2010: I remember the Danish version as an acceptable lager with some caramel sweetness. Rerate, Norwegian version brewed by Ringnes, 500 ml can: ABV is 4.6%. Golden (deep golden, maybe) colour, moderate white head. Very moderate aroma, hints of malts, boiled vegetables, caramel and dust. The flavour has some malts and a little caramel sweetness, hints of boiled vegetables and baby porridge. Not much to write home about. *I've had the Danish version many, many times, both on tap and from bottle, mainly because it is better than the ordinary Tuborg Grøn or Carlsberg, and is available everywhere.

Feb. 2014: 330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 7.4%. Slightly hazy deep golden colour, large white head. Aroma of brettanomyces, barnyard, dust and some spice. Moderate carbonation in the mouth. The flavour is not too sweet, but not dry either. Not sour (which I expected, as they have used brettanomyces lambicus).
