Pours hazy gold into a shaker. Bright white soapy head with medium retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Sour pine aromas. Dry with pine needles and resin upfront turning to overripe fruit and sticks in the lasting finish.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Whole Foods, Lynnfield, MA. Appearance is cloudy light brown-orange with beautiful sparkle, thumb-width off-white foamy head with good retention and light leggy lacing. Aroma is floral, grapefruit, pine. Taste is pine and resin over malty base. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with lively carbonation and mix of sweet and bitter finish. Overall, very enjoyable and is true to its name. If one were to be a purist about the Oktoberfest/Marzen category, it is way too hoppy, but I think they nailed what they were going for.

35,5 cl bottle @ hotel room, Ruoholahti. Thanks Jookos! Aroma has nice tropical fruity tones and pineapple juice. Flavour has minerals, plastic tones, harsh herbal bitterness and tropical fruit. Aroma was promising but flavour is a bit disappointment.

Nice rich deep copper and light orange coloured body, all with a very large, four centimetre tall just off-white head. Aroma of fresh hops, alcohol, pine, bright malt and a bit of pungent citrus. Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive grassy and citrus flavours up front with a good malt kick, some subdued grain and alcohol and finishing with a nice twist of flowers and fresh-cut grass. Aftertaste shows a bit more malt bitterness than expected, but at 7,5% abv, completely understandable, and a bit of a grainy sweetness, coupled with the very noticeable hop bitterness and grassy flavours and this one finishes strongly. Overall, a very nice beer, and definitely one of the better from this style you’ll have in a long time! Definitely wroth trying to find if you can, and having it in the summertime! I sampled this sixteen ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Fair Lakes (Fairfax), Virginia on 20-September-2015 for US$2,49 sampled at home in Washington on 26-October-2016.

This nut brown poured just that, nice deep amber colour with a creamy light tan coloured head. Minimal lacing. Scents include light caramel, club soda and a little roast. First swig was quite thin on the mouthfeel, with flavours of very light caramel and bleach? Finish is almost salty with a little hop flavour/bitterness lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
