Bottle, courtesy of saxo. It’s a clear, amber colored beer topped by a small, off-white head. Quite fruity and sugary nose with yeast and phenols. The flavor is sugary, yet it’s quite dry in the mouth. Caramel hints, some dried fruit and also fresh fruits as well. Medium body. Sweet finish with dried fruits. Nothing impressive here, going in several directions and not seeming to have decided what it’s supposed to be. 110416

Draught@Bruuveri, Helsinki. Deep amber colour with a small brown head. Aroma is dark fruits, some sweet malts as well as some mild notes of alcohol. Flavour is fruity, toffeeish, mild liquorice as well as some slight alcoholic notes as well. A bit thin in the palate, otherwise quite pleasant.

Draught@Bruuveri
Dark ruby-brown color, small beige head. Sticky Worcester-sauce aroma. Medium-bodied and quite watery palate for 8.6%. Nutty, caramelly, slightly alcoholic and spicey flavor. Taste is ok and nice to have a bit different Bruuveri brew.

Can 500ml (BB 11/2011)
Huge cloudy beige head with lots of lace, deep amber color. Aroma is slightly metallic, some caramel and toasted barley. Hints of grassy hoppyness. Light body. Suprisingly nice craft beer feeling here. Grassy hoppy, bready, some caramel and toasted malts. Metallic notes. Palate is a bit weak, needs a bit more ABV or gravity.
