Bottled. Yellow/golden colour, small white head. Malty aroma with hints of fruit. Bready malty flavour which turns into sweetish alcohol in finish. Not much aftertaste. Hides alcohol pretty well, so good Finnish strongbeer in that way.

Thius bears best feature is the aroma, typical pilsener-like and yasty, but actually very strong. The appearence is OK but the head is diminishing, the finish is very metallic and not pleasent.

Bottled. Pale golden colour, huge white head, which disappears quickly. Sweet honey in aroma, with hints of smoke. Taste is very wellbalanced, first filling taste of sweetness (incl. honey), and aftertaste of malt. Turns from sweet to bitter, but the aftertaste is a bit short. There’s also hints of smoke in the flavour.

Bottled. Black (or very dark) almost opaque with huge brown head. Roasted chocolate in aroma. Mainly chocolate in the taste, with hints of roasted malt. The balance between chocolate and roast is perfect. Canned in 2008. Same looks, aroma is lots of chocolate, some mild roast. Quite watery mouth these days. I blame the lowering of scores on too much other good beer I have had .)
