0,5l can from Vierumäen matkakeidas, enjoyed @ Vaihala. Honestly I thought I bought Maku brewing. I made a mistake. This is bad even for bulk lager, even for Pyynikki. Aroma is somewhat clean, flavor is not. Quite awful.

50cl can from Stockmann Herkku, Helsinki. Pours clear, deep golden with a white head. Catpiss, caramel and dried fruits, mild notes of citrus and malt. Sweet, watery and rather bland, but drinkable. Far from memorable.

50 cl can @ home, BBE 6.6.2024 Aroma has fruit candy - like those Tropical Fruits winegums from the nineties. Flavour has fruit candy, grapefruit, some odd yeasty notes. Fruity and even slmewhat crisp but also weird and messy.
