Draught (thanks Lövis for sharing). Hazy amber colour with a mediumsized off-white fluffy head. Aroma is citrus, zest, some wood, caramel and mild catpissy notes. Flavour is toffee, caramel, fruits, floral notes along with some earth and mild grass to it. Balanced and easy to drink.

Draught @ Villi Wäinö
Aroma is quite light with some spices and pumpkin(!). Also sweet berry notes and caramel. Flavour has pumpkin, some peppery spices, raspberries and distant herbal tones. Not sure where the kuuma (= hot) is, the chili is hardly observable. Feels like some spicy chistmas brew.

Draught @ Villi Wäinö
Aroma has caramel, some bready malt and hints of berries.Feels rather mild and malty for an IPA. Flavour is sweet with vanilla, raspberries and some minerals. Some mellow lhops in the aftertaste. Foamy, creamy and somewhat sticky palate. Quite lame for an IPA - but somehow I do enjoy the sweetness and mildness here. After some sips the hops start to cumulate and this doesn’t feel that nice anymore. Decent anyway.

(Keg at Villi Wäinö, 20131019) The beer poured mahogany coloured and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had malts, spices and mild fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied and mildly burning with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, spices, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty, spicy and bitter. A mediocre spicy brew.

33 cl bottle @ Olutravintola Oljenkorsi
Aroma has chlorine, some sweetish fruity notes, apriot and banana esthers typical to hefeweizens. Flavoyur has chlorine, banana esthers, yeast, hints of clove and some distant herbal notes. Also grassy belgian hops at the middle of the glass. Odd, like hefeweizen with some hops and fruity belgian notes added. If this is a blond IPA for people alive, then I must be quite dead.

330ml bottle @ Oljenkorsi, Helsinki
Pours yellowish orange with a foamy head. Aroma of yeast, ripe tartish fruits, spices and malts. Taste is quite Belgian styled with notes of tartish fruits, berries, yeast, spices and some grassy hoppiness. Finish is tartish and spicy with hints of bitterness. Okay, tartish Belgian style ale with some hoppiness. Dry bitterness kicks in towards the end of the bottle.

Bottle 0.33l at Oljenkorsi, Helsinki. Colour is clear golden with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Belgian yeast, spices, hops and malts. Very spicy, bottle says "blond ipa" but this is more like Belgian ale with strong hoppiness.
