If the idea is to replace India with Iisalma it didn't work very well. Perhaps closer to England means less hops? Not many redeeming characteristics. Some malt. Light bitter end. Pours orange with ok head. Malty finish. Can in Helsinki airport.

Can. Golden color. Grassy, slightly herbal, citric hops in the aroma. Firm grassy flavor with citric hops, soft herbal notes and hints of melon. Hint of metal in the finish. Maybe a bit thin, but fruity and pleasant IPA.

Taste is slightly dry grassy, weeds, old leafs, bark, minerals, old lawn, paper, wash cloth, hay, fruit stones. Medium to longlasting bitterness, harsh grassy mouthfeel. Meh!

Can 50 cl. Pours a clear, orangey golden with a lacing, white head. Fruity, slightly perfumy aroma. Medium body, feels richer than the 4.7% should indicate. Malty, caramellish, and a rather bitter finish. Lots of great hop varieties on the can and here at least they come through a little bit compared to the Olvi Summer Ale. 060818
