On tap at Koulu, pours a hazy copper amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out bready malt, with a bit of toasted nuts. Flavour is very clean, with light caramel, bready malt and some toasted nuts. All elements meld well and this is very clean. Nice stuff.

Draught @ the brewpub. Aroma has sweet buttery tones and some grassy hops. Flavour has butter, some grassy hops and minerals. The grass grows stronger towards the finish. Refreshing and nice. Why this is listed as 'premium lager'?

Tap @ Turun Panimofestivaali 2017. Smell of plastic, some hops. Hazy yellow colour, white head. Aroma of hops, soap, plastic, malts. Some paper in finish. Very imbalanced stuff. Bitter. Lively carbon. Big disappointment.

(Keg at Koulu, 20170506) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had sweetness, grass and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. A nice crisp brew which could have been less sweet.

Tap at brewpub. Amber slightly hazy color, medium-sized beige head. Sweetish, bready, worty aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Flavour is quite similar to aroma: sweetish malty, worty then light spicey finish. Maybe this was better in the past.
