Had this beer some time ago (years months), transferring data from a data base I was using to rate beer. As I drink these again I will add a complete review.

Bottle. Clear copper colour with a thin white head. Metallic malty aroma. Artificial malty flavour.

33 cl bottle @ Accenture christmas party
Somewhat light aroma has some grass, starch and hints of grainy malt. flavour has grass and grainy malt with somewhat starchy feeling. And very starchy aftertaste with hints of metal. One of the best finnish bulk lagers but nothing much still.

Pours pale clear golden colour with medium white head. Aroma of light grain and a bit sweet malts and grass. Flavour of sweetish malts, dry hay, grain and some metal. Straightforward and easy to drink.

Poured a light copper, head disappeared almost immediately, taste was so weak I was incredulous. Smelled slightly more promising, light and refreshing.

Best thing about this beer is its aroma. Poured with a fizzy white head that settled out right away and no lace. Color is a deep amber with lots of large bubble trails. Aroma is beery, malt, and a little hop. Flavor is sharp with the carbonic tang and sweet, but not all malt sweet. Also a little wet cardboard. Body’s on the thin side and carbonation is overdone. Finish is like flavor and of medium length. Don’t want any more.

Bottle. Pours golden with a white head. Aroma of grassy hops, fruitiness, malt and yellow apples. Flavor is sweer and malty with some grassy and metallic notes.
