Uncle is the Principal is our latest release. A rich, dark, malty 4,5% Czech Style Dark Lager. Dark copper in color and full of caramel, roasted flavor. So good that after a few you won't need to question "Kuka on rehtori?" anymore because you'll already know.

Tap at Mallaskelleri, Oulu. Aroma is malty and rich. Opaque cola brown. Thick foamy beige head. Initial sour berries. Followed by light coffee bitterness. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent. Decent if unmemorable.

(Keg at Craft Beer Helsinki 2023) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had toasted malts, molasses and grass. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, grass, molasses and bitterness. Aftertaste was burnt and bitter. A tasty brew with low ABV.

Draught @ Espoo panee ja juhlii. Smooth, slightly roasty and ashy with hints of earthiness and bitterness, faint hints of grass and syrup.
