Bottle (thanks VastActiv). Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is green apples, some yeast, mild sulphur and minerals. Flavour is quite mild, but there's some green apples, mild minerals as well as some yeasty and mild doughy tones too. Easy going and quite thin.

Bottle (thanks laiti!). Pale golden colour with a mediumsized foamy white head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is wine gums and some citrus and mild wheaty tones. Flavour is floral, some wheat, mild cardboard, some tea leafs and a bit yeasty tones. Feels a bit rushed.

Bottle (thanks laiti!). Murky ambery brown colour with a mediumsized off-white foamy head. Aroma is kind of Kotikalja/Kvassish, toasted, mild rye bready and some sweet syrupy tones. Flavour is toffee, rye bread, mild tea leafs as well as quite kotikalja like with some mild yeasty tones as well. Homebrewish, but kind of nice strong-abv kotikalja. As for a beer, well not that impressive...

(Bottle, 0.33 l - BBE 04/2021, thanks VastActiv, at Arde, 20210123) The beer poured brown and hazy. Its head was medium sized and nearly white. Aroma had caramel, wort and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, wort, yeast and bitterness. Aftertaste was yeasty and bitter. Poor.

33 cl bottle @ home Aroma has sweet apples and fruit sugar. Flavour has floury apples, gluey tones, staple remover and mild vichy notes. A tad watery with some off-flavours but drinkable.
