50cl from Stockmann Herkku, Helsinki. Pours clear amber with a modest, off-white head. Mild grainy aroma with notes of caramel and hints of spices. Medium sweet with rather low flavour intensity and ditto bitterness.

October 2017: Shared 500 ml can, from a grocery store in Karigasniemi, Finland. ABV is 4.7%. Grainy and dusty aroma, not great. The flavour is somewhat better, malts and a slight fruitiness, moderate hops. Run of the mill. --- Beer merged from original tick of Pirkka Parhaat Amber Ale on 01 Dec 2024 at 00:01 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 4.5 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.

December 2017: 330 ml bottle, from Alko Karigasniemi. ABV is 5.9%, 40 IBU. Malts are Vienna, Red Ale and Crystal. Hops are Magnum, Perle, Centennial, Cascade, Citra and Styrian Goldings. Cloudy reddish brown colour, moderate off-white head. The malty aroma is somewhat unfresh, notes of caramel. The flavour is also slightly unfresh, noticeable hops, but the beer appears unbalanced and uninteresting.
