(Bottle, 0.33 l, at Bierhaus Berlin, Helsinki, 20191205, thanks Sampo) The beer poured amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, caramel and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, malts, caramel and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. A decent hoppy brew with musty notes.

33cl bottle from Stockmann Herkku, Turku. Pours dark golden to amber with a rather large, off-white head. Malty and fruity with notes of caramel, bread, mild citrus and hints of yeast and candy. Sweet and malty with mild hoppy notes and ditto bitterness. Feels a bit messy and fizzy, but fair enough.

Bottled 330ml (from brewery shop)
Amber colour, small off-white head and lace. Tropical fruits, caramalt in the nose. Light-bodied. Caramalt, some tropical fruits, light yeasty flavours. Lowish bitterness. Quite typical easy start-up brewery APA. Not very interesting.

A dark orange beer, a head is almost medium and blond. Aroma has fruitness with tropical notes, mango, pineapple, some soap. Taste has fruitness but too less, some bitterness that could be stronger, some herbs. Medium bodied, quite smooth. Clearer and stronger flavours into the next brew. Decent.
