NB - should this be merged with the Bruuveri Vaalea entry?
Keg (Bruuveri, Helsinki)
Rich orange, small head. Decent wheaty aroma - quite sharp, but not actually sour. Quite hoppy, some toffee, something quite weird, probably related to the bitter hops. Served cold, and with quite harsh carbonation. Odd.

On the tap. Singular example of wheat beer but in a horrible 25 cl Cocktail-like glass. No head at all, totally flat (the girl said that was because too young). Red-orange, not clear but not hazy as expected. Very faint aroma, with a little bit of banana and clove. Than unripe friuts.
Quite sour taste, with sweet and citric notes. Bitter final and light astringency. Medium bosy and quite good carbonation which actuallt coats the whole mouth.
