This beer is named after the most popular rock band of 70s in Finland. Two band members died to intensive use of alcohol ...
Pale yellow with small white head, which is mostly diminishing. Sour and fruity grass aroma. Very fruity mouthfeel with grassy hops. Oily decent bitter aftertaste. Very close to Kukko Pils, maybe just some water added :)

Bottled (BB 03/2005)
Golden lager color and small vanishing white head. Light sweet and metallic aroma. Malty body with the attacking hops. Long bitter aftertaste. Shaper version of Kukko Pils and a bit unbalanced. (3/2/6/3/10 2.4)
Can, re-rated (BB 01/2006)
Golden with creamy white head. Flowery hoppy nose, some unpleasant sweetness (as in all Laitilan pilseners). Sweetish, lots of grassy hoppy. Malty - grassy finish. (4/2/5/2/9 2.4)

Small white quickly vanishing head. Golden colour and a lot of carbonation. Fruity but strange aroma: like chewing gum. Slightly hoppy but very much (maybe too much) fruity taste: starts watery, ends bitter. After taste hoppy.(5/3/7/3/12 3)
Re-rated, canned (BB 01/2005)
Golden with small white head, mostly diminishing. Nice hoppy nose with some fruity notes. Firm malty body with late hoppy flavors. Very bitter aftertaste. The best cheap pale beer what you can get in Finland. (5/2/7/4/13 3.1)

Sampled draught at Helsinki Beer Festival.
Ruby in colour. Lightly flowery nose. Dry, clean and grassy with light body. Rather bitter finish. Plain, but enjoyable.

Golden coloured. Grassy hop aroma. Dry and salty with rather bitter finish. Plain but well made and refreshing.

The idea of a dark steam beer seems odd. Reminiscent of a hoppy dunkel, with some chocolate flavours.

Dark amber colour; hoppy nose; good hop flavour, crisp finish. ............
