Hazy orange color, small white head. Wheaty, some orange. Light-bodied. Citrus-fruity, piney, evident wheaty-banana notes. This combination doesn’t work so well.

(Keg at Bruuveri, 20131213) This beer should be under Saimaan Panimo instead of Bruuveri. The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized, white and it lasted long. Aroma had spices, fruitiness and citricness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, citricness, spices, malts, grass and bitterness. Afteraste was spicy, grassy and bitter. A nice spicy wheat ale. A suprsingly solid brew from Saimaa.
