Pours clear yellowish orange with a smooth head. Aroma of fruits, yeast, hops, earthy notes and apricot. Taste is sweetish, earthy and yeasty with some citrus, grassy hops and apricot. Finish is fruity and yeasty with some estery sweetness and ripe fruits. A bit unbalanced.

(Keg at Kahdet Kasvot, 20140609) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had spices, grass and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, spices, yeast, malts and bitterness. Aaftertaste was dry and bitter. A somewhat thin and dry saison. I’d prefer saison to be fruitier.

Tap at Villi Wäinö.Whopping 8? per 0,4 ltr! Hazy dark amber color, steady off-white head, lace. "Fermenting gases" in the nose. Medium-bodied. Light apricot fruityness. Fruity lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. Sweetish. Tolerable. Feels less than its abv.

Bottle. Aroma overripe fruits, light rot, apples. Lightly hazy deep amber colour. Taste is red apples, overripe, sweet and sugary. Not tasty and not good. I even get hint of alcohol in flavour.

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 7
Draught @ Kaisla
Aroma is hoppy with exotic fruits and fruit candy. Flavour is hoppy with fruity tones, some hayish maltiness and toffee. Nettle-like lingering hops in the finish with some grapefruit. Starts to feel somewhat grainy at the end of the glass. Refreshing, but something is a bit off on the flavour side. Still definitely their best beer so far.

Tap at Villi Wäinö, Helsinki. Colour is clear orange with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Fruits, some crispiness, some pines, hops and malts. Well, this is little bit of "tunkkainen". Needs freshness and fruitiness. Body is quite good.

Draught @ Villi Wäinö
Aroma is a bit odd with fruity hops and bitter herbal tones. Flavour has minerals, fruity hops, some grapefruit and hints of nettles. Finishes with bitter herbal tones, some gooseberry bush and hints of vegetables. Also some strawberry tones do occur after some sips. Not very nice, needs more fruits. Gets a bit better towards the end of the glass though.
