330ml Bottle - Black with a small head. Plain chocolate, molasses and grain in the aroma. Malty and roasted taste with chocolate, raisins and grain standing out. Reminds me of a very dark doppelbock rather than a porter.

33cl bottle from Pien. Poured deep golden in color with a thin white head. Belgian yeasty aroma, some wheat, hint of banana even. Flavor has sour berries, cloudberry notes, wheat and some sweetness in the finish. Harsh at first, but that faded away when the beer warmed up. High carbonation.

Bottle from Citymarket Kupittaa. Mild smell of hops and grass. Hazy amber colour, white head. Aroma of grass, spruce, hops. Very flat carbon, slightly dry palate. Bitter. Rather good character for being market strength, but it’s still just yet another session IPA.

Bottled 330ml (K-Citymarket Puuvilla)
I have mixed feelings with this one as OMH company Biohit’s CEO asked on Twitter people to rate this on Ratebeer after someone had already made few fake ratings from same ip. Hazy yellow color, small white head. Pale malty. Light grainy nose has some fruityness. Light-bodied. Quite harsh and grainy flavor with some grapefruity bitterness. I’ve noticed similar harshness in some other glutein free beers before. Maybe ok for someone who can’t drink beer and wants to try IPA. For me just too light and harsh.
