Keg (Villi Waino, Helsinki)
Hazy rich reddy brown, tiny off-white head. Sweet, but also peppery hops - EKG? Beautiful hoppy taste, dry and crisp. Gentle carbonation. Finish very nice and malty, but quite light malts, but still full-bodied. Some wool. Very like a real ale, not keggy at all. Did I spot some ginger? No strawberries at all - if you had that, you had the end of a keg - grab another one!

A very traditional bitter from Huvila. Styrian Golding makes the difference.

Tap at Angleterre. Coppery amber, yellowy thick head, looks delicious. Nose has hops, caramel, malts. Flavor has roastiness, malts, caramel, earthiness and nice hoppy bitterness. Full and flavorful, even some citrus there, fresh. Good, extra points for being only 4,x %.

(Draught@Villi Wäinö) Very hazy red-amber with a smallish, tight and creamy, lacy head. Mushy-fruity aroma with berryish notes. Flavor has mostly strawberries, plus some fruit. Typically for a Huvila brew, it’s hard to grasp into any particular flavor. Almost medium body with soft, quite high carbonation. A quite ok session brew: nice for the low ABV (the brewer told it’s actually 4.4%), but not very interesting.

Draught@Villi Wäinö.
Hazy amber color, good beige head, lace. Fruity hoppy, sweet berry aroma .. certainly has some Huvila house aroma. A bit light palate. Fruity hoppy, sweetish, nice bitterness in the finish. Ok session beer, maybe a bit yeasty.
