0,5 l can. Pours almost black with a finger of light brown, quickly dissipating head. Aroma of medium roasted coffee, caramel, dark chocolate. Taste is heavy sweet and medium bitter. Flavor generally follows aroma, there's a hint of saltiness. Alcohol is well hidden, although ABV is a bit low for imperial. Just enough bitterness to offset heavy sweetness. Body is full, texture oily, carbonation gentle. Very decent. Hardly imperial though.
Humalane, lääge, puuviljane, tsitrus. Ok

Can, 0.44l. Cloudy orange pour, three finger frothy off-white head, medium retention, slight lacing on the glass. Fruity sour notes on the nose, mild rhubarb, light peach.
Light to medium body, lively carbonation. Average mouthfeel and texture, fizzy, lightweight, refreshing. Sour and tart taste balanced with mild sweetness in the background. Aroma of ripe fruits, peach, citric acid, yeast. Rhubarb, light candy notes. Not much of a vanilla in there but there's some creamy yoghurt sweetness in the background. Medium lasting finish, dry, tart, sweet.
Solid sour but nothing special about it really.

Can, 0.44l. Hazy amber/copper pour, three finger creamy off-white head, long lasting, excellent retention, sticky lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, malty, sweet candy notes, overripe fruits in the background. Interesting.
Full body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, thick and chewy, creamy, sticky. Very nice. Sweet malty taste balanced with mild bitterness. Aroma of caramel malt, molasses, jam, candy. Overripe tropical fruits, plums, grassy notes. Strong alcohol presence, dry, warming. Long lasting finish, sweet, dry, boozy.
Tasty enough, perhaps a bit too much on the sweet side.

Unclear orange with a foamy head. Resin, some caramel, hints of white wine, lemon zest, stone fruit, mango. Dry zesty resinous bitterness, malty fruity sweetness. Medium bodied, creamy texture, lively carbonated, dry zesty hoppy fruity bitter finish. A quite well made APA, expected a average one, but this is surprisingly pretty good!

Tasty.
