Many thanks to rosenbergh for this bottle! Smooth and dry beginning. Hints of malt, hints of bitterness. Very dry in body, but no aroma at all. Watery with bitter malty hints, water with hints of caramel and nuts. Not very deep, slightly malty with a moderate bitterness in the aftertaste. Sad.

Draught @ Bruuveri. Aroma has oaty malt, fruity notes and peaches. Flavour has mild vegetable tones, slightly sweet malt, some fruits and minerals. Aroma was promising but the Laitila-like vegetable tones are not that nice.

(Keg at Rotterdam, 20160610) The beer poured pale amber and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, grain and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, malts, straw, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A brew with quite interesting taste. Clean but bit weird.

50 cl bottle @ home, BBE 20.08.2016
Aroma is typical to English ales with toffee, hops, biscuits and some caramel. Also hayish malt. Flavour is malty with cereal – very typical to Olutpaja. Also some menthol-like hops, toffee and biscuits. Very clean EPA. This is just not a beer style for me still.
