Bottle (from Lumo, Rauma). Yellowish golden colour with a mediumsized white head. Aroma is spruce tips, some herbal and mild floral and fruity tones too. Flavour is pine, some floral, fruity and quite bitter tones. Crisp and nice biting bitterness.

A bit hazy, copper beer with medium head. Aroma is intensive with tropical fruits, caramel, malts and grain. Taste has pine, citrus and hops. Light, but not watery. Very nice, fresh and enough hops.

Bottled 330ml (Lumo, BB 03/2018)
A bit hazy amber color, small steady off-white head and lace. Aroma has caramalt, fruity hops and "dry yeast". Light to medium-bodied. Flavour is similar to nose: caramel, fruity hops and yeast. Somewhat harsh. Dissapointment from Sonnisaari, this one has homebrewish vibe.

Smell of hops, citrus, grass. Dark amber colour, off white head. Mild aroma of hops, spruce and some grapefruit. Very light body, surprisingly so. Soft carbon, soft palate. Too light, could be more challenging.

An orange beer, a head is quite small and blond. Aroma has herbal-pine, some caramel, only hint of fruitness. Taste has pine, resin, still only hint of fruitness, medium bitterness. Medium bodied, mild carbonation. This beer would be needed more fruitness.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - batch 67 - BB 1.3.2018, from Pien, 20170303) The beer poured deep amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had pine, grass and mildly caramel. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were pine, grass, creamy toffee, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy, herbal and bitter. Nice but the aftertaste was not at the same level with the rest of the beer.

Taste is smooth, slightly herbal hoppy and grassy with some pine and resin. Finish is slightly watery, quite bitter, herbal and piney with some resin, caramel and biscuity maltiness. Okay piney and resinous APA.
