33cl bottle from Drink shop, Tallinn. Pours slightly hazy golden with a white head. Mild malty and fruity with notes of tropical fruita and hints of pine and citrus. Moderate to medium sweet woth balanced flavours and a certain bitterness. Finishes slightly dry and the aftertaste is mildly bitter with some citrusy notes. Quite okay and sessionable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Pelgulinna õlu (official) on 10 Jan 2015 at 20:09 - Score: 5

330 ml bottle from "SIP veini- ja õllepood". Pours lighter amber, massive head that comes slowly down and reduces into a thinner layer. Aroma has a bit of malty bread that has been covered with grassy herbal blanket. Fizziness that the first pour revealed is also present in the first sip - beer expands in the mouth and lively carbonation hides other sensations. There is some bread with citrusy fruit notes before the taste succumbs into long dry and quite hoppy aftertaste. Good and sessionable, only bit too fizzy.

330 ml bottle from "SIP veini- ja õllepood". Pours darker shade of yellow, closing to amber. Has a small head that doesn’t really stay for long, reducing into a thin layer within seconds. Aroma has some grains, white breadcrumbs and also a hint of lemon. Taste. I really like it. Was not sure what to expect from this beer - and blonde ale is normally not my favourite style - but this beer really surprised me. First sip was full of bready maltiness, that was light, crisp and easily drinkable. Must have been that lemon. Crisp, malty and spritzy, didn’t think I can use these words in the same sentence. Light easygoing body with a lot of flavour. Nice dry hop bite dominating the aftertaste before culminating in longer herbal breadcrumb sensation. Well done, a great session beer.
