500ml can from Prisma. Sweetish and caramely malty session IPA with some piney and grassy hops. Okay.

Can 0.5l at home, Riihimäki. Enjoyed straight from the can. Aromas and flavours: Some distant hints of fruits, grass, dryness, paper, some distant hints of hops and malts. Exrremely boring and has nothing to do with IPAs.

50cl can. Poured deep amber/reddish color with a thick white head. Caramel malts in flavor, some hops, some darker fruits. More citrusy on the nose, malts, some harshness. Again pretty ok session stuff from Olvi.

Can 500ml (K-Supermarket Puuvilla)
Clear copper color, small off-white head. Light fruityness, malts in the nose. Light-bodied. A bit harsh hoppyness, some fruity notes, pale maltyness, a bit of caramel. Ok but I prefer their other IPAs over this one. This is simple but tolerable. Christmas it has only in name.

(Can, 0.5, 20160930) The beer poured brown and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and caramel. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, caramel, fruitiness, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. A way too sweet hoppy pale ale

Canned (from Sale Palosaari, Vaasa). Deep amber colour with a mediumsized creamy off-white head, which leaves good lace. Aroma is floral, grassy, some wooden and resiny notes with mild bready malts to it. Flavour is floral, grassy, herbal and some sweet malts along with mild resiny and fruity notes as well. Another rather pleasant tasting IPA from Olvi.

A dark orange beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has fruitness of grapefruits, some fructose and caramel malts. Taste has herbs and grapefruits, low caramel, medium bitterness. Medium bodied, nice carbonation. More malts and not so fresh as other Olvi’s IPAs. Good beer.
