Tap at SOPP Turku. Opaque colour, small beige head. Toasted, bready, a bit ashy aroma. Medium-bodied to full-bodied. Toasted, bready and a bit ashy flavour too! Their first impy is straight-forward but clean. Not much edge here but it is ok.

Tap at SOPP Turku. Murky red colour, small steady pinky head. Cassis gives odd flesh aroma, then like blackberry stones. Light-bodied. Flavour of course has cassis with milky mouthfeel. Blackberry leaves. Simple, a bit tart.

Strong smell of malt, also some grass. Hazy golden colour, white head. Aroma of grass, some herbs, and a long malty finish. Medium bitter. Lively carbon. Nice and balanced no-risk beer from a new brewery. Manages to be a good malty helles, which is a rarity among Finnish crafts.
