Bottle, 6.5%. Four months past BB date. Sweet brown sugar aroma. Clear dark brown/chestnut colour. Very small head. Thin mouthfeel, but with some flavour. Quite roasted and a little bready. Hint of pepper. Well-balanced.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of tbone_. Clear, orangey brown with a small, rough, off-white head. Aroma of burned caramel and rye bread. Medium body, roasted malt accents, some overripe fruit and a rather raw bitterness in the finish with also some alcohol showing. 180807

33 cL bottle. Pours hazzlenut brown with lacing head. Roasted, rye like malt nose. Malt heavy flavour, dry and roasted rye. This lasts into the finish with a minor bitterness. Decent.

Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Dark amber, small creamy head. Aroma of caramel and grass. Medium bodied with syrupymouthfeel. Caramel dominates a much more powerful beer than it’s lighter cousin. Low bitterness. Not bad at all for a Lapin Kulta.

Bottled as Talvi Lapin Kulta (or Lapin Kulta Talvi depending on how you look at it), also 6.5%, so most likely the same beer, that has been kicked alive again in November 2006 after a few years "pause" off the market. Dark copperish amber colour, small white head, that leaves a bit of lace. Aroma is roasted malts, alcohol and rye. Flavour is at first toffeeish, and then turns into big roasted malts. Slight caramellishness. The roast stays for long in the aftertaste. A nice beer from Hartwall (when did they last time put anything good on the markets before this? last winter?). Still one slightly negative thing, it has some weird sweetness in it, that kind of cuts in with the rest of the flavours. Overall a very good one.

Bottled (BB 04/2004)
Copper color, off-white foamy head. Smoked caramel aroma, malty. Quite full-bodied with typical dunkel roasted malty taste. Very warming with hints of toffee in the finish. Suprise from Hartwall, this one has nothing to do with standard Lapin Kulta! (7/4/7/4/15 3.7)
Re-rated, 2006 version. Dark ruby brown color, small tan head. Caramelly, roasted rye bread, chocolate and berry-like aroma. Toffeish, toasted malty with long light roasted aftertaste. Schwarzbier-like. (7/4/7/3/14 3.5)
