Canette métal achetée dans un supermarché à Helsinki et dégustée face à la mer. Robe limpide, blond pâle, surmontée d’une fine mousse blanche persistante. Nez discret mais agréable, aux notes d’agrumes légers (citron, pamplemousse) mêlées à un fond de malt clair et une pointe résineuse. Attaque douce, saveurs modérées mais bien définies : agrumes, biscuit, touche de pin. Amertume présente mais équilibrée. L’ensemble est net, rafraîchissant, facile à boire. Une pale ale simple mais bien faite, idéale pour une pause au bord de l’eau.

RBESG 2017, sampled on July 23, 2017 @ Olutravintola Pikkulintu, Helsinki. Quite clean amber, bit of foam. Sweetish nose with ripe fruits there. taste slightly bitter, strong grainy backbone, sweetish. Tropical juicy hops are saving this beer for me. Dry tannic finish (medium). OK.
