0,33l bottle from Deli Bakers, ABC Lohja. This beer seems to be brewed at UG brewery in Lohja nowadays. Clear golden beer with medium but quickly vanishing head. Aroma has malt, bread and sweet citrus notes. Flavor has malts, citrus and grain. Sweetness turns into more dry touch at the end. Quite basic, ruispalat is difficult to find.

Has a real home brewed off flavor. It is harsh and bitter but the bitterness not good, ashy. 8-bit Helsinki
