500ml can @ Pien, Helsinki. Sweetish, slightly buttery and bitter with some floral notes, grass and earthiness. Feels more like a Czech pils than IPL.

500ml Can - Hazy golden with a white head. Peach, mango and lychees in the aroma, a hint of pine. Hoppy taste with peach, syrup, grapefruit, orange and some slightly earthy notes.

Just a smidge better than the WLP830, cleaner and tighter, with a grassy middle laced with grain, apple, and white bread, and a more pronounced floral hop presence in the finish. Better fade as well, lacking the hints of buttered popcorn in its sister can. Not an overly memorable pils, but a good enough pint.

Clean and crisp, with a bright cracker malt front backed by hints of grass, lemon, apple, and yeast, followed by a grainy middle and a mild floral bitterness on the finish. Lingering yeast in the fade. Undertones of butter and sweet corn. Not bad, but a bit sloppy for a pils.

Close to being a sour IPA. The kveik yeast brings out heavy notes of tart berry, grapefruit juice, and chive, with a little funk underneath. Yeasty, with less bitterness than London Fog but also harsher, less refined. Interesting, but neither of these IPAs are all that great.

Dryer than its counterpart, with a heartier dose of citrus pith, backed up by stone fruit and a moderate mineral bitterness. Neat experiment drinking these two IPAs side-by-side, but both are rather mediocre overall.
