Canned@Kahdet Kasvot, Tampere. Yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is mild green apples, some malts, grains and mild alcohol. Flavour is malts, grains, mild metallic notes as well as some alcohol and mildly hayish notes.

Can 50 cl. Courtesy of MiP. Clear, deep golden with an off-white head. Rather malty nose. Medium body with a solid malt base with distinct alcohol. Has a light fruitiness. The finish is a little raw, sulphurous and bitter. But far from the worst example of the style. 031008

50 cl can tahnks to my uncle. BB 04.08.08. Hazy yellow color, white head. Apple, malty, grainy scent. Sweet, herbal, apple, grainy taste. Medium mouthfeel, medium bitterness. Some alcohol aftertaste. Much better than expected, not as all as present alcohol that I imagined before hand.

Can, 50 cl, thanks gnoff. Hazy golden, medium white head. Honeyish and bready malt aroma with some fresh acre notes. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Well balanced, low bitterness.

<b>Can, 500 ml</b>
<b>Appearance: </b>Pours dark golden to amber body colour, perfectly clear in texture with no sediments, head is initially snowy white, frothy, quite dense, medium in size, slowly decreasing to small, compact in its structure and leave some lacing. Carbonation of the body is lively to moderate initially and than moderate.
<b>Aroma: </b>Dusty, some malty sweet background, cardboard, slight notes of alcohol, dull sweetness, considerably heavy malty sweet background. Rather simple, not sophisticated aroma.
<b>Flavour: </b>Front is dull, dusty, moderately to heavy alcoholic, unballanced, very dull, just not good and rather awful, overlycarbonated and the carbonation yet strenghtens this awful, poor beer taste. Not ballanced, without any direction. Some notes of grainy bready sweetness at front becoming poor, dull and really unfresh in the aftertaste. Very poor skunky dull hoppy profile. Finish duration is long and nasty.
<b>Palate: </b>Body is medium to heavy, texture is rather wattery, carbonation on palate is lively but nasty, giving an impression like somebody spit in your mouth. Finish feel is dull, dusty, dry, harsh and heavy alcoholic, really awful and hard to bare.

50 cL bottle, courtesy of MiP. Pours clear and golden yellow with a slowly collapsing white head. Malty and slight cornish aroma. Flavour is sweet caramel malty and cornish towards light bitter and vaguely metallic. Smooth and caramelish finish with a decent level of bitterness.

Can. A dark golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty combined with notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and metal as well as light notes of honey, leading to a slightly bitter finish. Thanks MiP for sharing.

Can, 7.2%. Peppery aroma. Clear dark golden colour. Small white head. Strange bready flavour, good alcohol level. Some slightly rotten vegetable.

Can . Dark gold with good , thick head on top . Mineral , grassy aroma with slightly off grainy fell . Full bodied with strong malt presence . alcohol well hidden . Sugars well in check with earthy hop character behind . Good example of this style .
