oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - MAY 31, 2008
Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet malts, grassy hops and some mild vegetably notes. Flavour is bigtime grass, some fudgeish/caramellish malts with mild wheaty and saltwatery notes. A good, easy-to-drink and refreshing summerbeer.

yespr (20653) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - FEB 19, 2009
50 cL bottle, courtesy of Papsoe/oh6gdx. Pours hazy yellow with a white and slowly collapsing head. Dry and phenolic yeasty aroma. Mild sweet malty and yeasty flavoured with a light phenolic touch. Dry and yeasty finish. Belgian yeasty brew - not a California Common!

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - JUN 16, 2008
UPDATED: SEP 5, 2008 Bottled at Old Bank, Turku. Clear golden, rich airy head. Ashy fruity nose. Light-medium bodied with spritzy mouthfeel. Short but lively wheat malt flavour followed by banana and minerals. Finishes with salty hop bitter finish. An interesting, drinkable beer

TBone (9096) - Pori, FINLAND - MAY 18, 2008
Bottled (BB 01/2009)
Hazy yellow color, small off-white head. Fruity (orange) and maybe a bit spicey - witbier-like aroma. Flavor is yeasty with typical unfiltered beer-like grainy notes. Also kind of bean flavors. Unfiltered lager with wheat beer character. This is funny summer beer from semi-big Laitilan brewery. Maybe the start of series of seasonal beers?

liinis (1103) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JUN 4, 2008
Murky yellow, white small head diminishes totally. Sour yeasty fresh, medium bodied. bitter hops. Fresh hoppy yet yeasty aroma

mirjukka (748) - LOHJA, FINLAND - MAY 24, 2008
bottle at Angleterre Helsinki 130508 Color: hazy yellow. bit head Taste: nice mixture of easy wheat beer and some citrus fruitiness too. Oh, finally I have found ideal after sauna beer for me and available also in supermarkets. I walked in to bar and chief told me: Now I have you something what I haven’t tasted yet.

Bottle, cloudy yellow color with yeasty look too. Nice carbonated mouthfeel, tastes of lemon with hops also hint of tobacco. Overall a pleasant suprise.
