Description
Founded in late 2017, ETKO Brewing was made of humble love for simple, yet enjoyable beer that makes you want to have another one. By “humble” we mean “brewing beer in a bathroom in somebody’s flat” -humble – the typical story of how Finnish craft beer scene came to be by trial and error, flamed by the enthusiasm of being at the frontier of something new. Any pour could be the beginning of an adventure!

ETKO shares its facilities with Factory Brewing. Etko Brewing is more of an "All-round" brewery, which means making all kinds of beer.

Sampled at Juova, Helsinki.
POured light hazy orange in color.
Some lemony notes in aroma, citrus fruity, light bodied brew. Crisp and quite quaffable, no flavor bomb though.

On tap at BeerGeek Bar, pours a clear dark golden with a small white head. Aroma has gently dank hops, resinous notes, and bready malt. Flavour is clean, but just doesn’t have a great hop expression—just lots of bitterness and a mineraly body. Not bad but not great.

On tap at BeerGeek Bar, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of dank, tangy hops, with crisp crackery malt. Flavour has plenty of tangy melon, mineraly notes, and biscuity malt. Crisp, mineraly; not a fan of the hop expression. Okay.

Tap at BGB with mcberko. Clear golden body, white head. Brown sugar and citrusy notes in the aroma, some resin. Lean, dry, empty taste, some low oxidized fruity touches, fruit tea undertones, resin, low citrus, some astringency, but pretty much no bitterness... Eh nah.

Tap at BGB, with mcberko. Clear golden body, off-white head. Hugely pungent aroma, melon, citric, some NZ herbal notes and onion but less as it opens. Lean, dry taste, more on the onion, diesel, NZ herbal side of things, minerally, low citrus notes. Simplistic, astringent. Eeeh. Not just the hop's fault.

On tap at Haka, pours a dirty dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of cinnamon, dirty earthiness, and some light roast. Flavour is pretty muffled, with lots of dirty, earthy, bready malt, and gentle cinnamon. Very muddled malt profile. Something seems off here.
