Draught @ Oluthuone Kaisla. Rated on 1.7.2012 Aroma is hoppy with exotic fruits (mango, peach) but also a bit watery. Also hints of caramel malt. Flavour is slightly sweet and a bit malty with exotic fruits. Starts a bit watery and finishes sweet with berries and hints of vegetables. Foamy and creamy palate. Also some hay‐like element I’ve usually noticed in Golden Ales. Decent, could be more hoppy and rich. 7-3-7-3-14 = 3.4 Cask @ Salhojankadun Pub Aroma has toffee and some bready malt. Flavour has strong toffee and fruity aromas with some resiny malt. Finishes with some strawberries and lingering grapefruity hoppiness - with a feeling typical to English hops. Some mildly sticky malt in palate. Good, although the hop profile isn't exactly my thing. 7-3-7-3-14 = 3.4

Draught at Kaisla, Helsinki. Clear amber, persistant creamy head. Mild grapefruit aroma. Mid sweet with medium body abd clean mouthfeel. Faint grapefruit, then slight resiny bitterness. Rather shallow character.

Draught @ William K Kurvi, Helsinki
Pours dark orange with a foamy head. Aroma of fruits, grassy hops and caramel. Taste is malty and fruity with grassy hops, biscuity notes and sweet caramel. Finish is sweet and slightly bitter with some English hops. Okay, quite easy to drink and tasty English IPA.

Draught@Rotterdam, Helsinki
Clear deep amber color, good off-white head. First impression of aroma: burnt sugar then nutty, flowery English-type hoppyness. Medium-bodied. A bit harsh, sticky and alcoholic. Quite sweet with hints of green apple. Nutty hoppyness. Bitter aftertaste. Quite a mess, although not a disaster.

(Draught at Milenka, 20120518) The beer poured deep amber and a bit hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, grass and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, fruitiness, herbalness, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was herbal, malty and bitter. An English style IPA with mild fruitiness and strongish bitterness. A bit unbalanced.

Draught@Villi Wäinö
Dark opaque black color, steady creamy brown head, lace. Aroma of wet ash tray, even some farmhouse. Light bodied. A bit sour, ashy and burnt flavor. Light milky note in the finish. Too burnt-ashy for my liking. English-style stout.

Draught @ HBF ’11. Rated on 08.04.2011
Aroma is rather strong on butter. Also some grain and hints of grassy hops. Flavour has grainy malt, hints of hay and grassy hops. More like bohemian pilsener, not a basic pils.
