Draught @ Ukkometso. Aroma has tropical fruits and fruit candy. Flavour has grapefruity hops, mild tartness and watery finish. Unusual and interesting but too mellow at the end.

0,33l can from Salama brewery, Espoo. Front of the can tells that ABV is 3.5% but backside tells that this is 2.8%. Weird. Edit. Asked from the brewery and they told that correct ABV is 3.5%. Hazy, pale yellow beer with good white head. Aroma has sweet exotic fruits, pineapple and citrus mainly but also some mango. Good and fresh! Taste has not much fruits at all. It has some grass and citrus but body is very light and watery with average carbonation. More like fruit vichy at the end.

Draught @ Old Bank. Aroma has tropical fruits, pineapple juice and some grapefruit. Flavour has grapefruit, fruit juice, some tropical fruits and moderate hop bite in the finish. Drinkability is very high, this could be more rich though; the flavour feels a bit short. Salama seems to know how to IPA.

330ml can from K-Citymarket Ruoholahti. Batch 0006 BBE 051019. Smooth, fruity hoppy and citrusy with some hints of tropical notes and mango. Okay, a bit light bodied and carbonated fruity session IPA.
