Canned (from K Citymarket Kivihaka, Vaasa). Orange colour, with a mediumsized foamy white head. Aroma is fruity, floral and some caramel notes. Flavour is herbal, some grass, fruity and floral with some medium bitterness and crisp maltiness. Quite standard IPA, with no surprises.

33 cl can @ home, BBE 15.06.2021 Aroma has has resiny tones, berries and some bready malt. Flavour has resin, minerals, bready malt. Finishes with grapefruity and menthol-like hop bite. Not bad but a traditional IPA just does not stand out among these modern IPA styles.

33cl can from local shop. Poured golden and pretty much clear, more cloudy especially if pouring all in. Straightforward pine/resin aroma and flavor, malty with some red ale notes. Surprisingly bitter finish. Resiny finish with some dark fruits. Light to medium bodied. Good drinkability.

Can 330ml (KCM Mikkola)
A bit hazy orange colour, medium-sized steady white head and lace. Ripe fruits, apricot, jammy aroma. LIght to medium-bodied. Marmalade, citrus, pineapple in the flavour. Decent fruity IPA. Despite of name, no Christmas in the flavour.

Many thanks to Finn for a 330ml can of this one. Near-clear golden-brown body, remaining filmy layer, clingy lacing. Vague smell of ripe citrus. Balanced taste character of leafy hops, orange and caramel malts. Dry bittersweet finish. Medium bodied. Pretty nice. (Tromsø 18.12.2018)
