Draught @ the brewery. Clear golden yellow with a small foamy whitish head, fiant piney aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter lightly citrusy taste, smooth body, long finish. Solid West Coast IPA.

16oz can. Rather solid juicy IPA. Doesn't have much bitterness, so I'd say West Coast is a stretch, but probably the most enjoyable IPA I've had from them. Mosaic is solid, delicate blueberry notes, some juicy fruitish mild Strata feels too. Not a lot of malt depth, presumably dextrose pushed. Solid beer.

Keg @ Pikkulintu Ruttopuisto, Helsinki. Poured clear and light yellow in color. Pineapple sweet, light hoppy and fairly juicy. Felt surprisingly light bodied.

(Keg at Pikkulintu Puotila, 20241121) The beer poured golden and rather clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had ripe fruits, pineapple and honey from malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, honey, floralness, grass, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty, hoppy and bitter. Nice.

Apricot orange-brown body, translucent but with abundant suspended particulates, thin off-white head. Nose light, mostly citrus and pineapple. Body toasty/cerealy with floral hops, pineapple, stone fruit, and some peppery/spicy elements in the finish. Light and quaffable.
