Miksu (4538) - Jyväskylä, FINLAND - MAR 14, 2008
0.33 l bottle. Amber color with small head. Caramel, toffee, nuts, rye and disdinctive fruity juniper in the aroma. Tart fruity, woody and piney juniper flavor with caramel and toffee. Very low carbonation give this a bit thin mouthfeel. Decent aroma but strong evergreen wood flavor is too much for me.

Bov (8204) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - FEB 19, 2008
courtesy of oh6gdx - amber-orange colour with a bad head retention; aroma of dried dates with a touch of vinegar (didn’t catch the juniper here); sweet and with a low carbonation; quite thin-bodied; low bitterness and more notes of dates in the finish - confusing

Bottle from Tbone_, thanks! Reddish brown color. Grape juice and red berries in teh strong aroma. Thin. Vinous flavor with berries. Somewhat dusty aftertaste. Very fruity traditional ale.

diabel (1584) - Aarschot, BELGIUM - OCT 15, 2007
Bottle, thanks to Pat for trading! Deep amber body. Small, off-white head. Sweet apple aroma. Lightly bitter, moderately sweet flavour. Lacks carbonation. Very unattractive.

From a trade with oh6gdx, thanks Patrik.
Bottled(330ml). -as Käki Olut III.
Clear amber coloured, small (almost no) head, mild malty nose. Weak and watery with notes of something sweet (maybe apple). Short dry finish. Very watery palate, and quite nice label.

Marko (3614) - Split, CROATIA - SEP 25, 2007
Bottle (cute label!) shared with ozujsko, received in a trade with oh6gdx.
Poured a lovely dark copper colour with a tiny white head that went away slow. It got suddenly fizzy after I drank half of it. Odd. The nose was extremely faint. Some malt, and very faint hints of coconut and some random berry. The taste is as faint as the nose. Damn watery. Some malt, weak weak hints of some apple bubblegum that’s lost most of its taste (wiht just a touch of mint), a tad salty. Erm. A huge disappointment after I read it had juniper and rye malt.... haven’t seen a beer more deserving of a 1 in palate in a while.

fonefan (29292) - VestJylland, DENMARK - SEP 18, 2007
Bottle. Clear medium amber color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, caramel, light to moderate hoppy, hubabuba. Flavor is light to moderate sweet with a average to long duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is flat.

faroeviking (10300) - FAROE ISLANDS - AUG 26, 2007
Bottle. Pours a thin brown colour. Short head. Aroma of spices and herbs with some caramel and fruits. The flavour has spices, cardboard, ripe fruits, caramel, bit of wood and some bitter hops.

KimmoS (51) - FINLAND - AUG 10, 2007
Lovely coppery color. My nose cant pick up anything special or even strong. No unique flavors, easy drinking lager. Quite sweet. A bit vatery and flat. Good drinking stuff nothing special and the label is pretty!
