May 07 in One Pint Pub, Helsinki - Before my visit to Helsinki, I had heard that this brewery had closed so I was very pleased to find that they had one of their beers on sale when I visited. The aroma is very inviting and smells of peaches and other exotic fruits and the taste was extremely hoppy and bitter with a long and refreshing after taste. The beer was a bit hazy but there was nothing wrong with the taste or the aroma so this was just superficial and I am not sure if the haze was intentional or not. A nice, fairly impressive beer.

Draught at One Pint Pub, Helsinki. Cloudy pale amber, minimal head. Citric nose. Medium sweet and medium bodied. Freshly hoppy, but not overpowering. Well drinkable with soft and pleasant mouthfeel. Medium bitterness. Interesting soft citric approach to an IPA.
