(Keg at SOPP Helsinki 2015) The beer poured brown and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had caramel and malts.. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, sweetness, caramel and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and malty. A too sweet brew.

Clear dark brown colou, off-white head. Malty aroma, rubber, car tires, yeast. Malty flavour, dark malts, light decaf coffee. Very fizzy. Quite thin, but not bad for the ABV. Finish rubber, malts, caramel. Leaving it breathe for a while reveals some vanilla. Have a feeling this one might be better if it contained much less CO2.

Bottle [from trade with Rosenbergh] shared with Martinus @ Help Benzai to 10 Sahti/Gotlandsdricke/Koduõlu - ticks tasting. Almost opaque dark brown color with a nice dark red glare coming through when held into the light, medium sized quickly diminishing beige to light brown head. Smell and taste malts, lightly liquorice, iron, bitter. Medoum dry finish, average to decent body, a bit firm carbonation. Hmm not as good as I had expected, previous beers I’ve tried from this brewery were a lot better. Still very much drinkable though.

Smell of hops, orange peel. Muddy yellow colour, white head. Aroma of hops, citrus, a faint of tobacco and earth. Surprisingly watery. Medium bitter. Soft but lasting carbon. Tries to be hoppy, but ends up too light, probably due to low ABV. Not offensive, but just.. not enough.

Faint smell of berries, some hops and yeast. Amber colour, white head. Mild aroma of hops, yeast, malt, fruit in finish. Very light body, bordering watery. Mildly bitter. Very much a "comfort" beer, not challenging in any way. Soft but plentiful carbon. Fresh.

Smell of grain. Yellow muddy colour, small white head. Aroma of malt, hop, some paper in finish. Fizzy carbon, light body. Medium bitter. Light in flavour, but nicely fresh. Nothing surprising, but a good pilsner nonetheless.
