Can, courtesy of fonefan. It’s a clear, dark amber beer with a small head. Roasted malts, toffee and a touch of fresh and dried fruits in the aroma. The flavor has much the same, roasted malts blending with a fruityness. A hint of bitterness and metal in the end. Medium body, quite dry. A drinkable beer indeed, but as interesting as one might expect from a 4% ABV Finnish macro. 110416
