33cl bottle from Sip, Tallinn. Pours dark brown, close to black, with a beige, short lived head. Rather intense aroma of spruce already from the pour. Does certainly remind of cleaning products straight away. Spruce is very dominating in the flavour too, some roasty notes, but totally dominated by the spruce. Usually I like these kind of beers, but this is a bit too much. The cleaning liquid associations is constantly there. Hmmm, might be interesting to re-try after some aging?

Tap at Koht. Amber colour, small steady white head. Aroma has fruits, spruce and spices. Medium-bodied. Flavour is similar. Marmalade, spices, citrus and spruce. Hides alcohol but too gimmicky ipa.

Bottle (thanks marduk). Pours dark brown-black. Aroma is sweet, fruits, spice, spruce, rubber. Flavor is sweet, spices, spruce, roast, malt. Overall: drinkable. PS: nanoPruul is new Genika for me, why would anyone brew there?! (unless you're cheapskate, but then you shouldn't brew beer to begin with!)

Bottle. Brown-orange, hazy, with lace. Huge pine / spruce nose, caramel, rich malts. Great fruit flavor, lots of spruce, chocolate, caramel, but strawberry flavor as well. This is a really fun beer. Super fresh and resiny and the spruce really works imo.

Tap at Koht. Pours amber, some white foam on top. Aroma has deep, wet and swollen spruce, not too resiny but feels somewhat heavy. Taste that follows has some citrus, some spruce resin and spruce needles. I don't know, for me it sort of feels heavy and hard, not that easy to drink. Flavour itself is not unpleasant, just not sure if this spruce is really contributing or maybe making it too hard for me to drink.
