Bottle, RBESG08 grand tasting Whoa, this is more rare than I thought. Nice. Poured a gold body. Medium sized white head. Honeyish nose, something, cardboard? Faint honeyish, grainy malty taste. Not impressed. Go Stoats!

RBESG08 grand tasting. Pale gold, thick off white head. It’s an ok, lemony citrusy beer.

Creamy, white tophead over a clear, amber body. Good laceworks. Mild grassy malts to the nose. Dry and sweet grainy taste and that’s it (330ml bottle shared with Finn, Tromsø 16.05.2008).

Bottled. Deep golden colour with mediumsized white head. Aroma is quite bready with some grainy hints. Also some hops and mildly earthy notes. Flavour is bready, earthy and flowery hoppy. Rather hoppy finish, but not much aftertate. Indeed seems like a new recipe, as it neither reminds of Lapin Kulta nor Karjala.

Bottled (BB 06/2008)
Golden color, small white head. Brewing mash, corn and some grassy hops in the nose. Sweet malty flavor with some grassy hoppy notes. Light palate. Quickly fading flavors, some metallic notes in the aftertaste. Kind of mix of Olvi III (watery, sweet malty) and Aura (grassy hoppyness). Certainly doesn’t taste like Lapin Kulta.
