5.6/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
Bottled@101 Beers, Tampere. More or less black colour, small beige head. Aroma is raisins, some toasted malts and mild floral notes. Flavour is think, but has toasted malts, toffee, liquorice as well as mild wooden notes. Thin, sweet, but still not too bad considering the abv.

Draught @ Bar 101 beers
Aroma is light and a bit saison-like with funky yeasty notes, some citrus and hints of banana. Flavour is rather odd. It starts with tart citron, turns into some tervaleijona drops and finishes with yeasty cardboard. Stinging palate. Not your typical wheat ale.

Draught (9,5%) @ Bar 101 beers
Bright apperarance, no head, looks like filtered. Sweetish and a bit stale aroma with banana esthers, some yeasty notes and hints of hay. Flavour is sweetish and slightly ’floury’ with banana esthers, some yeasty notes and hints of tart grapefruit. Leathery and dry finish with woody notes and some alcohol, that becomes a bit disturbing after some sips. Juniper starts to linger in my mouth at the middle of the glass. No noticeable off-flavours. A bit straightforward and the juniper is too strong, but a decent sahti anyway.

33 cl bottle @ 101 Beers, BBE 07/2014
Aroma is quite light with some licorice, syrupy notes and malt. Flavour has syrupy and sweetish malt, some licorice, hints of soy sauce and cocoa. Also some toffee typical to English ales occur at the middle of the glass. Fenol-like alcohol lurks in the background but does not disturb. A bit straightforward and thin for this ABV and the syrupy notes do disturb. Not bad anyway.

Draught @ SOPP 2013

Pours yellowish orange with a smooth head. Aroma of yeast, wheaty malts, hints of smoke(?!) and other off-flavors. Taste is sweetish, yeasty and malty with sourish notes and hints of smoke. Finish is sweet, sticky and a bit sourish and musty. Not very clean or balanced.

(Keg at SOPP’13, 20130725) The beer poured orange and cloudy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had farmhouse, fruitiness and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, farmhouse, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste had earth and bitterness. A bad bad brew.
