(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy amber golden with a somewhat rough, off-white head. Lightly tart aroma. Fairly light-bodied with fruity, tart accents. Dry finish. Quite unusual and not very pilsener-like at all. 060706

2005 bottle from Juha, labeled Saimaa Luomuolut II, as other have noted. Deep copper body, with a chill haze. White head has to be coaxed from the bottle while swirling the glass. White and bubbly, fully diminishing. Smells grassy, earthy, almost like artificial turf; plasticy, you might say, but in a good way, somehow. Little bit of honey in there too. Flavor starts out with lots of honey and hops flavor. Bitterness is high relative to the other Finnish pilseners I’ve had. Approaching Bohemian Pils-like levels. Grassy and minty, it provides good bitterness and flavor. Fniishes with honey and hints of cream. Very good malt extraction. A touch of wateriness to the medium body, with low carbonation.

Cloudy dark tan; slightly wheaty aroma with pear, cherry esters. Lightish body. Lots of wheat. Slightly lemony. Semi-dry finish.

Hazy orange, almost no head. Sweet berry nose. Hoppied, somewhat bitter mouthfeel. Medium-bodied. Oily, slightly bitter aftertaste.
