mice (3145) - Espoo, FINLAND - AUG 9, 2016Kirkas, punertavan kuparinruskea olut pienellä, mutta aavistuksen pitsiä jättävällä vaahdolla. Tuoksu makeahko ja maltainen. Myös maku makea ja hyvin miedosti humaloitu, loppujen lopuksi aika yksiulotteinen tapaus. Aavitus hapanta katkeroa maussa mukana. Tuli testattua lihan kanssa ja kyllähän tämä alas meni mainiosti, mutta ei tosiaan ihmeellinen.
Senka (1138) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - MAR 28, 2014From the archives: June 2011. Finland. Very good vienna. I was surprised to see something similar in Finland. Most of the time it was pale lagers, and then this one. Malty, fizzy a nice beer to look at.
TheCellarer (61) - Tromsø, NORWAY - MAR 28, 2014Half-litre bottle brought from Nourgam in Finland and kindly shared by Elisabeth at session XX. Clear reddish brown body with small head that leaves some lacing. Crisp and fresh aroma of dried fruit (raisin) and sweet caramel. Flavour resembles aroma, but is weaker. Weak is also the key word for how it feels in the mouth: Flat, thin and very little carbonation. Quite promising to begin with, but fails to live up to that promise. Still an acceptable brew though.
Nijstrom (280) - Turku, FINLAND - NOV 23, 2013500ml bottle. This beer has an amber colour with small off-white head. There are notes of malt, bread and caramel in the aroma and the beer is moderately sweet and mildly bitter. Light-bodied with a thin, watery texture and soft carbonation.
VastActiv (15705) - Espoo/Tampere, FINLAND - AUG 4, 2013Bottle 0.5l from local market. Originally rated 06062012. Colour is clear copper with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Grain, sweetness and malts.

laiti (11482) - Tampere, FINLAND - FEB 1, 201350 cl bottle @ Nurmo, BBE 18.08.2013
Aroma has bready malt, some toffee, hints of vegetables and metal. Flavour has metal, bready malt and hints of vegetables. Finishes somewhat sticky with syrup notes. Feels kind of artifical.
