500 ml can, from SPAR Jørpeland. ABV is 4.7%. Nearly clear golden colour, moderate to small white head. Pleasant floral and herbal aroma of Saaz hops. Fairly crisp flavour, herbal hops again, moderate bitterness in the aftertaste. There has been many disappointments from Mack during the last few years, but this beer is not bad at all.

500 ml swingtop bottle, bought at Rewe Getränkemarkt, Erding. ABV is 5.4%. Crystal clear (filtered?) pale yellow colour, big to moderate white head. Very moderate carbonation in the glass and mouth. Aroma of grassy hops. The flavour has some malty sweetness, some grassiness and a substantial hoppy bitterness, while the alcohol shows an unexpected presence for a 5.4% beer. God knows what makes this a Landbier - it looks and tastes more like a filtered Dortmunder Export to me. Anyway, drinkable it is.

500 ml swingtop bottle, from Rewe Getränkemarkt, Erding. ABV is 5.4%. Very pale yellow colour, big to moderate white head. Fairly nice sweetish aroma of pilsener malts and grassy hops. Light bodied. The flavour has some malty sweetness and moderate German hops in the finish - nothing remarkable here, but still a fairly well made and drinkable beer.

330 ml unlabelled bottle, kindly shared by gunnar. Golden colour, moderate to low white head. Strong sweetish aroma, notes of flowers and artificial banana candy. The flavour is not quite as sweet as the aroma made me fear, but has still notes of banana candy. Minimal hops. Weird, but not undrinkable.

330 ml bottle, from Vika Mat, Oslo. ABV is 4.7%. Organic. Some sediment in the bottle. Cloudy golden colour, moderate white head. "Skunky", grassy and citrussy aroma. Moderate carbonation, soft mouthfeel. The flavour is citrussy, grassy and quite refreshing, with some rougher woody notes of traditional homebrew. Not quite like any other beer from Atna Øl, so I take it that this is an original recipe.

500 ml can, unfiltered, from Dagli’brugsen Skødstrup, Denmark. ABV is 4.7%. Golden colour, large white head. Malty and grainy aroma, sweetish notes of baby porridge. The flavour is also malty and grainy, but not too sweet. Drinkable when cold. However, both aroma and flavour are nearly void of hops. What the hell - is there a hop shortage in Germany now?

500 ml bottle, thanks to gunnar. ABV is 4.7%. Some sediment in the bottle. Hazy golden colour, large white head. Sweetish aroma and flavour of not-very-successful homebrewed pilsener, grassy, yeasty and woody notes. Decent hops in the finish. Overall not good enough, for a new microbrewery aiming to build a reputation.

Bottle, RBESG 2005 Grand Tasting. Hazy golden colour. Nice pilsener / helles aroma (Hallertau hops?), flowers, grass, honey. Flavour is like a "raw" pilsener, spritzy, tolerable hops but not really that exciting.

500 ml bottle, bought in Bier Spezi Hoheluft, Hamburg. Some sediment in the bottle. Hazy golden colour, large and lingering off-white head. Pleasant aroma of aromatic hops, notes of citrus, flowers and honey, hints of oak and leather. Flavour is fairly malty and relatively sweet, well balanced with pleasant hops, some oaky and spicy elements. This is what a golden lager SHOULD taste like!

On tap at Copenhagen Beer Festival 2013. Pale golden colour, large white head. Fresh herbal, floral and grassy aroma, also notes reminiscent of weissbier-yeast / cloves.

Feb. 2015: 330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar,Stavanger. ABV is 5.2%. Hazy pale golden colour (I shook the bottle vigorously to get all the sediment dissolved, which almost certainly enhances the flavour), large white head. Aroma of newmown grass and herbs, a hint of citrus. The flavour is fresh, wheaty-like and citrussy, very refreshing. Some herbal hops, but not very bitter. A great summer beer!
