Bottle from Alko. Originally rated on 17.12.2009 as Stallhagen Julbock. Probably had a bad bottle, because the taste was sour, unbalanced and homebrewish. Almost undrinkable.

Dark brown with white head. Starts out with a heavy portery aroma, then gets watered down and the end is sweet and caramely. Somehow still artificial.

(Draught at Hilpeä Hauki, 20110715) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was small and white. Aroma had grass and a hint of yeast. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, mildly grass and fruitiness, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was bitter. This reminded me of no kristallweizen. Just a poor pale lager as omhper already wrote.

(Bottle, Bishop’s Arms Folkungagatan, Stockholm, 8 July 2011) Dark amber colour with frothy, beige head. Fruity, malty nose with caramel, toffee, orange peel and apricots. Malty, fruity taste with notes of caramel, orange peel, apricots and generous amounts of earthy hops in the finish. The bitterness isn’t really that direct and in-your-face, but it sneaks up on you and is quite impressive. More than medium body, with balanced sweetness. Nice one.

Draught at Villi Wäinö, Helsinki. Lightly hazy golden, minimal head. Cidery nose. Light bodied with clean mouthfeel. No phenols, no cloves or banana. Just bland and cidery. No bitterness. More like a filtered, underhopped lager than a kristallweizen.
