(Keg at Pikkulintu Puotila, 20241215) The beer poured deep golden and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had honey, grass, grain and mildly alcohols. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, grain, honey, light sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. Pleasant.

Pours dark golden to light amber, perfectly transparent. Good sized white head, relatively quick to recede, little lacing. Average intensity in the aroma: cerealy malts with a hint of white bread, a touch of honey, relatively vivid (per style) herbal/grassy hops, apple-like fruitiness and a light warming feel. Decent definition. Taste notes follow the aroma closely. Average intensity, ok definition. Medium to high sweetness, medium bitterness, a bit on the sweet side in the mouth with a light warming feeling, well balanced in finish/aftertaste with a hint of floral hoppiness. Medium bodied with light to medium carbonation, slightly on the oily side for the abv with an overall quite smooth and easy mouthfeel. Very much fine, not impressive to me.

500 ml bottle. Slightly unclear amber golden with a very big stable creamy head. Mild booze, juniper, marzipan, candied malt, orange zest. Some boozy fruity sweetness, dry zesty bitterness. Medium to full bodied, smooth creamy texture, soft carbonated, dry zesty spicy grainy boozy bittersweet finish. Excellent Bock.

Burk från Bierothek. Gyllengul klar vätska med lågt skum. Stor kropp, gyllena smakbild som är elegant och harmonisk med söta maltiga smaker, honung, söta päron och äpplen, gula russin. Mycket gott

This one is certainly better. Faint hints of that same unpleasantness but it's much more balanced. Also a bit boozy, which holds it back a bit from being great.
