Bottle from Pazzeria, Milan; L0.62, bb 30.04.14
Dark brown color with small head. Aroma of caramel and smoke, light peat, apparently sweet. Quite sweet caramel flavor, hint of roastiness, and smoke well present; too low bitterness.
Not a medal winner (missing some character), but still a good smoked beer.

Hazy amber color with medium sized creamy head. Milo aroma in caramel and hops, oranges, light yeast, nice. Good body strength, caramel flavor, strong, with some malt, moderate residual sweetness, and strong bitterness; very good hop character, mainly citrus fruits, oranges and some cedar. Balanced final.
Very good.

Draught @ Viisi Penniä
Aroma has soapy citrus, some grassy notes and butter - feels like a Belgian wit. Flavour has citrus, grassy notes, some herbs and hints of peppery spices. Grass takes over at the end of the glass. Refreshing, feels a like a mix of pils and witbier. Reminds me a bit of Hopfenpflücker.

(Draught at Viiden Pennin Krouvi, 20130419) The beer poured golden and a little bit hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, grain and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, sweetness, grass, grain and bitterness. Aftertaste was grainy and bitter. I would have wished for a more intense bitterness that would have washed all the other flavours away. Well, this beer works nicely in this way, too.
