bubbliness is next to godliness

At least that seems to be the idea for Lest's Norse-named beers.  I began with Odin, and now I move on to Freya, described as a refreshing choice for summer.

The beer has a very light scent, just barely giving off a faint citrusy smell from the bottle.  It's bubbly and a classic beer color, like it's brother Odin, but once in the glass the beer has a definite herbal odor.  It has a little bit of herb in the taste too, but there's an undercurrent of the lime stated on the bottle.  This beer also gets sweeter as it gets drunk, but the aftertaste is oddly candy-like.  Or even something like Fruit Loops.

This is definitely an interesting beer, one that would be good on a hot summer evening.  I think it needs something salty to offset all the sweet, though.
Soo...not the goddess of brewing, huh?
