I got a tip from Bursat to try an Efes 500 ml in a dark bottle, since it is from the old brewery. Systembolaget had a bottle that fit the description, so I hope I managed to get the correct one. Unfortunately I couldn’t get my hands on a different bottle to compare against so I bought a Landsorts Lager from Nynäshamn instead.
Efes Pilsener (5%)
Apperance: Clear yellow colour. Medium foam that left a little lacing.
Smell: Weak smell with a hint of metal and something sweet.
Taste: Lean taste and easy to drink. Had a very low bitterness and hints of bread, metal and that sweet smell I couldn’t but my finger on.
This beer probably works wonders on a sunny beach, but in my livingroom with a snow storm raging outside it feels out of place.
Total: 1,7/5
Nynäshamn Landsorts Lager. (5,3%)
Apperance: Clear golden colour with some small pieces floating in the beer. Small foam that left little to no lacing. For a lager it has a quite appealing apperance.
Smell: Weak smell of bread and metal.
Taste: Medium to low bitterness and a hint of bread and metal. It has a small bite to it and a bit more taste. An ok beer but still a bit boring.
Total: 2,3/5
Nynäshamn won this one, but it was a bit unfair since it's a microbrewery versus a much larger brewery. Efes actually stands it's ground quite well against the other lagers I've tried. Thanks for the tip Bursat Im very interested in more ideas or tips :)
