This is Tuborg Green in the bottle rather than the can — the same Danish pale lager at 5%, just poured instead of cracked open, which changes the experience more than you'd expect.
A glass shows the aroma more clearly than the can does: light and grassy, with a clean malt sweetness and a crisp bitterness that sits in the background rather than the foreground. The body stays light and the carbonation is fine rather than harsh, giving a softer fizz than you'd get straight from the can.
Pour it cold into a simple glass and drink it while it's fresh — the bottle suits a slower, more settled drink than the can, though it's no less a beer for warm days and easy company, and no less worth finishing quickly.
