Draught at Old Bricks Inn, Jyväskylä. Pale gold color with thick head. Herbal hops, sweet malt, raspberry and mustyness in the aroma. Sweetish malty flavor with somewhat pungent and rough hop character. Citric and fruity hop flavor with firm bitterness. Too heavily carbonated.

(As Old Bricks A). Golden colored, medium white head. Fruits, hops and mild yeast in aroma with obvious lemon. Medium bodied. Yeast also in flavor with fruits and even mild spices, aftertaste lasts with lemon.

Draught@Old bank, Hazy light yellow in colour. Minor white head. Hoppy and malty aroma, kind fruity. I’d say that the flavour is lightly influated by juniper berries when it comes to the bitterness and the acidic tones in it reminds me of not fully materd gooseberries.Its drywith a bitter sting. It has a dry aftertaste.

Draught. Pale yellow colour, also slightly hazy. The head is mediumsized and creamy. Fruity, hoppy and malty aroma with some hints of caramel. Same in flavour, but the fruityness is quite "acidic". Aftertaste is again smoothly fruitish malty. Carbonation bites a bit much, but otherwise a very good brew.

(Draught) Slightly hazy pale yellow color with a small, tight head. Honey-sweet, yeasty aroma with toffee hints and a hint of aromatic hops. Grassy-hoppy, yeasty and honey-malty, slightly acidic flavor. Light to medium-bodied, slightly fizzy palate. Easy to drink. The Belgian origins are quite clear - it’s something like Duvel with lots of added water (and without the enormous head).

<!-- i -->Draught<!-- /i --><!-- br --> Very pale yellow, creamy white head, lace. Lemony, "dishwater nose". Lemony hoppy, citrusy, also in the aftertaste. A bit thin malty background withouth being sparse. Well hopped.
