From a 1l PET bottle, huge thanks SaintMatty for bringing this! Murky dark red-brown body. Raisins and cardboard in the nose. Sweet yoghurty cardboard taste, some raisins & soap... eeh, different?

Thanks SaintMatty! Dark amber color, small off-white. Some plastic, caramelly, harsh aromas. Toffeish, diacetylic, sweetish. Some brown sugar but not much roastyness. Not totally hopeless, but not a great either.

Plastic bottle. Deep golden colour with small white head. Aroma is sweet alcohol, some metallic notes as wll as butterscotch and some biscuits. Flavour has a rather nice malty body along with some caramel, grass and mild notes of metal. Alcohol shows as a slight burn in the finish. A positive surprise.

Plastic bottle (Thanks TM). Golden colour, not too much head. Aroma is biscuits, bready malts, some mild notes of grains and rubber. Flavour is quite much the same, as well as some strange sweetish starch/maizelike notes lurking as well.

Plastic bottle 1 ltr @SOPP. Slightly hazy yellow colot, small white head. Diacetylic, slightly sour nose. Very sweet flavor, almost caramelly, some grassy notes. Covers alcohol very well. "Best" of three Karksi beers.

Plastic bottle 1 ltr @SOPP. Clear amber color, small off-white head. Buttery, diacetylic aroma. Butterscothy, sweet malty flavor. Distant grassy hops, toffee. as hopeless as pale one.

Plastic bottled 1 ltr@SOPP. Clear yellow color, small white head. Cracker malty aroma, light plastic botttle - diacetyl nose. Sweet corn-like maltyness, butterscotch, some unclean notes. Not totally horrible but "new" brewery is not started very well. Of course it is very Baltic.

Draught (Õllesummer 2009, Tallinn) - Brown with a slight haze. Fruity aroma with raisins and hints of roasted malt. Fruity and slightly hoppy taste with raisins, caramel and malt. Not bad and fairly refreshing.
