Canned (from S-Market Maalahti). Hazy golden colour, huge white head. Aroma is grainy, metallic, rubbery and some slight herbal and grassy notes. Flavour is grassy, herbal and quite nice in the beginning but ruined by a huge metallic flavour in the aftertaste. Potentially good, but once again, ruined by the metallic notes.

Canned (from Sale Palosaari, Vaasa). Amber colour, mediumsized beige creamy head. Aroma is mild spices, some banana and sweet malts at first. Same goes for flavour. So far so nice. BUT. It turns into horror after a few more sips. Everything just starts feeling very artificial and the bitterness gets an ugly edge to it. In fact, drink as cold as possible. Even 9 C is too warm for this, as all the shit in it gets out.

Golden colour, small white head. Aroma has light mandarin and orange peels, grainyness. Light-bodied. Flavour has some mandarin sweetish fruityness but also harsh grainyness. As Sauna beer - tolerable.

Canned. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grainy, floral, some mild citrus and a bit earthy tones. Flavour is floral, citrusy, some mild zest and a wee bit of herbs. Grainy malts in there too. Very new beer as such, but doesn't feel that fresh, neither to the aroma or flavour.
