Dark brown colour, small beige head. Smokey, smoke ham aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Mild smoked ham smokeyness, light maltyness, some hops. Watery finish. Tolerable. Could be more robust for 7% beer, now feels like 5.5%.

Dark murky colour, medium-sized head. Dry papery, grainy aroma. Light-bodied. Some harsh bitterness, dry flavour, some yeasty notes. Probably f*cked yeast here. Not very pleasant. KCM Vaasa keskusta.
