Draft at Oluthuone Haka, Helsinki. 24/05/2025.
Poured clear and light amber in color.
Caramel and toasted malty notes dominates. Pleasantly dry. Good drinkability, maybe not the classic ESB but not complaining.

Poured creamy looking orange in color with a white head.
Coconut dominates this one. Sweet, not much bitterness and slightly boozy. Not really for me.

Poured golden and nearly clear in color. White head.
Minerally, grassy and grainy pils with a good bitterness. Not the cleanest beer though. Some off flavors. Either the line or the beer.
