500ml bottle (Stockmann, Tallinn)
6 Pleasant sweet and very yeasty (marmitey/meaty) aroma.
3 Laced-with-caramel bold redness, brief head leaving not even a ring.
6 Sweet maltiness, again doped with that meaty yeastiness again. Malts are very sweet, but not actually sugary.
3 Simple smooth palate, quite full, moderate carbonation. Leaves the mouth a little sticky. Finish has gentle noble hop hints, reasonably reminiscent of the cones themselves, and gently bitter.
10 Easy quaffer, but a bit too sweet to really quency your thirst for any length of time.
