Perhaps the most unusual beer in Scotland. Deep amber colour, huge white thick head. Citric lemony aroma with hints of honey and pale malt. Intense fruity, hoppy and grapey flavour. No carbonation. Delicious.

500mL bottle. Poured clear, brighter golden with a tight-bubbled off-white head.. set up nicely in the glass. The aroma picked up some lovely bready malts accented by grassy, herbal, and slightly grainy hops.. balance was spot-on.. I really enjoyed it. The flavor found semi-sweet bread and honeyed malts at the core, surrounded by lightly-bitter lemon rind and herbal hops.. finished with a kiss of lemon over honeyed malts. Lighter-bodied with lively carbonation on the palate.. just enough tanginess/bitterness from the hops to keep it interesting.. really, really good stuff.

En gyllengul öl med ett vitt skum. Doft av säd, gräs tillsammans med citrus. En stram munkänsla med samma smaker som i doften. En beska som inte dominerar men harmonierar.

Kullan värinen olut melko niukalla valkoisella vaahdolla. Tuoksussa on sitruksista humalointia ja maltaisuutta. Maussa on keksiä, sitrusta, yrttejä ja rapeaa maltaisuutta.

super clear crew sporting light amber colour. bubbly brew. nice aroma considering i was expecting much more macro-lager notes. some hay/cereal but there is a nice floral note i can’t place. palate is balanced, malted and slightly bitter. very tasty lager!

500ml brown bottle. Clear golden pour, compact white head with minimal lacing. Nose is grainy, some mild citrus, grass and mild fruits. In the mouth - toasty up front, grain, citrusy and fruity middle, grassy end. Pleasant bitter fade. Good soft mouthfeel, easy drinker.

500ml bottle pours a pale golden orange color with a 2 finger white head that leaves some decent lacing on the glass. Aromas are grass and citrus with some cereal grains. Taste is pleasant grassy and citrus hop bitterness with a nice grainy malty balance of sweetness. One of the better lagers that I have ever tried. A well crafted lager truly deserving of premium lager status.

500 ml bottle. Finland. HHOKXI.
Clear pale golden colour with small white head. Fresh grassy and fruity hops in aroma. Hops slightly subdued. Some malt too. Flavour is very grainy malty (some Müsli too) and fresh fruity hops. Thin but very drinkable Lager.

Clear dark yellow body, white head. Aroma is fresh with green hops and grainy malt. Flavour is hard with grainy malts. When warms turns bit unpleasant and harsh bitter. Nice one.

Clear golden colour with minimal head. Was expecting more. Malty, bit hoppy. Good, but really pricy lager.

Bottle from Alko. Golden color, white head. Slightly bitter taste with plenty of malts and some citrus. Very decent lager.
