(Keg at Villi Wäinö, 20151007) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, pine and perfume. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, malts, yeast, unfermented malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity, musty and bitter. The aroma was rather good but the taste was simply messy.
