Tonttu is single hopped with the Australian Enigma hop that gives a tropical fruit and near strawberry character that works beautifully with a little sweetness with it being a red ale.

200ml draught at One Pint Pub. Firm beige head, crocheted lacing and a bright amber coloured body with a deep reddish glint. Good looking, indeed. Malt-fruity aromas, hints of toffee and leafy hops. Rather delicate taste of ripe red fruits, almond and biscuit, some spices to it. Smooth bittersweet tail. Medium bodied. Fits the season. (Helsinki 29.11.2017).
