Bottle
Fizzy golden appearance, white head vanished in seconds. Sweet and industrial malty aroma. Some sweet malt flavor rapidly changing to watery tasteless finish. Not the worst lager anyhow: it has some taste and not any ugly metallic flavors.

Bottled. Golden colour. Clean and thin with no bitterness and not much flavour. Pointless but at least not offensive.

(33 cl can). Golden lager, low head, some hops in the aroma but not much, slightly sweet, at least some malts are detectable in "the best Finnish ground water". Drinkable (not offensive), but far from great.

(Can). I only sampled the contents of half the can (without much carbonation) as the other half leaked out in my suitcase during the flight from Helsinki(!) But even a normal carbonation couldn't possibly have hidden the fact that this is just another golden "get drunk fast" strong lager, quite uninteresting in any aspect. I give it a few points for not being blatantly offensive.

Golden coloured. Syrupy sweet, no flavours apart from the alcocohl. Very poorly made strong lager.

Canned Clear deep golden, minimal head. Lighty fruity nose. Sweetish and light bodied with some crystallic malt and salt. Finishes with low bitterness. A flawless standard lager, which far exceeds my expectations from these guys.
