COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Unlike previous Lentomestari versions which were brewed at Bruuveri, and unfiltered, the Saimaan version is filtered, and uses more new-world hops.
Bruuverin Lentomestari on täyteläinen ja runsaasti aromihumaloitu Extra Special Bitter, ESB. Sen kantavierreväkevyys on 15,5 % ja alkoholipitoisuus 6,2 t-%. Brittibittereistä poiketen aromihumalat ovat amerikkalaiset "Amarillo" ja "Tomahawk".

SaintMatty (2847) - Uppsala, - NOV 18, 2009
Draught (Bruuveri, Helsinki) - Amber in colour with fairly lively carbonation. Slightly hoppy aroma with hints of grapefruit and caramel. Crisp and hoppy taste with spicy malt, grapefruit and caramel. Tasty, enjoyable and it certainly doesn’t taste its strength.
