Strong smell of malt, also some grass. Hazy golden colour, white head. Aroma of grass, some herbs, and a long malty finish. Medium bitter. Lively carbon. Nice and balanced no-risk beer from a new brewery. Manages to be a good malty helles, which is a rarity among Finnish crafts.

33 cl bottle @ Tallinn Crap Beer Festival 2018. Rated on 05.05.2018. Thanks oh6gdx & TBone!
Aroma has diacetyl, butter and grainy malt. Flavour is strong on diacetyl. Also some mellow grassy tones, butter and grain. A diacetyl bomb.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - BB 18.12.18, from Pien, 20180503) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, grain and lightly sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grain, grass, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was watery and bitter. A too thin brew with nice aroma.

Bottled 330ml (from brewery shop). Clear golden colour, small white head. Aroma has light malts and buttery notes. Light-bodied, crisp. Sweetish malty, a bit buttery, light spicey hops in the finish. Well-brewed lager without big faults. I had also a small sample from tap at brewery. It didn't have much of butter and was a bit more herbal. I predict that this will loose some of its charm when it gets older. So drink fresh!
