---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
6051 | Aass Bayer Uten | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.9
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml bottle. Copper coloured beer with a big off-white head. Typical n/a beer aroma with the usual sickly "boiled" notes (baby porridge, over-boiled vegetables), also some more pleasant hints of bakery and caramel. The flavour is bland and boring, again those sickly "boiled" notes, too much sweetness. A slight bitterness in the finish. Not for me this one. |

6052 | Mack Freeze | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.5
Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml bottle. Pale golden colour, fluffy head. Strong smell (I hesitate to use the word "aroma") of grit and extremely over-cooked vegetables. Nasty. Flavour is typical n/a lager, "boiledness" / over-cooked vegetables again, too sweet. Just a faint bitterness in the finish. Bad. |

6053 | Mack Freeze Julebrygg | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 2.3
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4 330 ml bottle, thanks to OleR. Amber to brown colour, moderate off-white head. Typical n/a beer aroma of over-boiled vegetables and baby porridge, but also malts and caramel. The flavour is not too sweet, moderately grainy with hints of caramel. There is a noticeable presence of herbal hops too, so for a n/a beer this one is not undrinkable when cold. |

6054 | Grans Fri Alkoholfritt Øl | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.8
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml green bottle, as Grans FRI Alkoholfritt ØL, from REMA 1000. Pale golden colour, big to moderate white head. Aroma of malts, baby porridge and cooked vegetables. Thin mouthfeel. The flavour has some malts and baby porridge again, minimal hops. Not quite as bad as some other n/a beers though, and not entirely undrinkable when cold. |

6055 | Aigua de Moritz | Spain | Reduced Alcohol | 1.7
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml clear bottle, bought at ICA Middelthon, Stavanger. ABV is 0,0%. Pale golden colour, big white head. Moderate carbonation in the glass. First a fresh "skunky" whiff, then the usual n/a beer aroma of over-boiled vegetables, maize grit and baby porridge. The mouthfeel is watery and soft, the flavour is fairly dry with a hint of citrus, moderate and slightly metallic hops in the finish. Not completely undrinkable. |

6056 | Spendrups Premium Lager 2.1% | Sweden | Reduced Alcohol | 1.6
Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml can, at the "skärgårds"-boat Vesta from Asperö to Saltholmen, Göteborg. Pale golden colour, fluffy head. Minimal aroma. Thin mouthfeel, but at least the flavour has some weak hints of malts and hops (and cardboard). Not undrinkable with a sandwich. |

6057 | Munkholm Spesial til julens kjøttretter | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 2.1
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 3 330 ml green bottle. Looks rather good, brown colour, large and lingering off-white head. Tolerable malty aroma with hints of bakery and caramel, the usual Munkholm "boiledness" is subdued in the background. Acceptable (for a n/a beer, that is) flavour of malts with some burnt caramel notes, metallic hops in the finish. The "best" (= least miserable) of the Munkholm varieties so far. |

6058 | Munkholm Spesial til julens fiskeretter | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.7
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml green bottle. Golden to amber colour, large and lingering head, slightly off-white. Aroma has more of the usual Munkholm "boiledness" (over-boiled vegetables or porridge) than the "Til julens kjøttretter"-variety has. Some fruity hints too. Flavour is relatively dry, notes of over-boiled vegetables, a tolerable bitterness in the finish. Not a drainpour, but not good either. |

6060 | Aass Jule-Uten | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.9
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml brown bottle. The beer looks impressive - amber colour, with a huge and creamy long lasting head. Sickly sweet aroma of over-boiled vegetables and unfermented wort, typical n/a beer. The flavour is actually better than many other n/a beers (like the Munkholm range) - there is a certain maltiness with some caramel, and tolerable hops in the finish. If you MUST have a n/a beer, this one is at least (nearly) drinkable, if you can stand the smell. |

6061 | Munkholm Münchener | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.8
Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 500 ml can, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. This is not a "dark" n/a beer like the label says, it is a golden n/a beer, deep golden if you like. Fluffy white head. The aroma has some of the same sweetish and "boiled" notes of the other Munkholm beers (bad), but there are also some flowery aromatic hops around (good). Flavour is pretty sweet with some weak caramel notes, but there are just enough hops around to make the beer drinkable if cold. Hell, it’s a n/a beer, and you don’t expect much, but if you HAVE TO drive, or avoid alcohol of other reasons, this is the "best" Munkholm beer I’ve had so far. |

Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2 330 ml green bottle, as "Grolsch Non Alcoholic", courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. Golden colour, moderate head. Unmistaken sickly n/a beer aroma with "boiled" notes (= vegetables that have been boiled far too long) and grit. "Unfresh" and sickly flavour, notes of grit. Fizzy mouthfeel. Bad. |

6064 | Aass Sommer-Uten | Norway | Reduced Alcohol | 1.5
Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 330 ml bottle. Very pale golden colour, decent head. Relatively strong sweetish aroma of wort with some of the "boiled" notes of your typical n/a beer (over-boiled vegetables, grit), but I’ve smelled them worse - there are also some fruity notes. The flavour is slightly wheaty, light bodied of course, but there are also some hops in the finish. Not good, but I’ve had worse. |

6065 | Heineken 0.0 | Netherlands | Reduced Alcohol | 2.1
Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4 330 ml green bottle, from Helgø Meny Maxi, Sandnes. Crystal clear pale golden colour, moderate white head. The aroma has first some fresh and typical Heineken notes of lightstruck hops, before the more usual n/a beer features of cooked vegetables and baby porridge take over, but not as extreme as in some other n/a beers. Thin mouthfeel as expected. The flavour is fairly dry with some hops, and the beer is not undrinkable, okay with a meal. |
