A soft and malty red lager beer.

Taste: The initial impression is a wave of herbaceous hops and a rich malt character, coating your tongue with a satisfying sweetness that whispers of toffee and buckwheat honey. Hints of biscotti emerge, adding a nutty depth that complements the lingering malt character beautifully.

Appearance: A dark ruby red beer with a light tan head.

Nose: Imagine the warmth of freshly baked rye bread crust mingling with hints of toasted almonds.

On tap at Põhjala, pours a clear dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma has dry bready malt, and a touch of red fruits. Flavour is dry, with plenty of bready malt, a touch of toffee, and red fruits. Dry, bready finish. Okay.

Can 44 cl. Pours a hazy, reddish amber with a beige head with good retention. Lovely crystal malt aromas. Medium body, rich, sweet crystal and biscuity malts with just sufficient balancing hops. Very pleasant. 090625

Kopparfärgad och precis som jag vill ha min wienerlager. Torr, mjölig, mjukt maltig där brödigheten har en lite mörkare sötma med karamelliserad toner utan att bli för söt och sedan en lite bränd beska. Mycket gott
