Canned, thanks oh6gdx! Clear pale golden, mid sized head. Faint citrus and soap behinf the boiled vegetables in the nose. Sweetish with light body and clean mouthfeel. Slight orange and sugar. Low bitterness. Unusually tolerable Finnish macro lager.

568ml can (K Kamppi, Helsinki)
Pretty standard Finnish pale lager aroma, a little spicy, almost a hint of ginger once or twice. Fairly full for a pale lager, sweetish softness, but fizzy carbonation. Quite hoppy, but very chemical metallic hops, nothing full or aromatic. Finish is mostly the hops. It’s perfumey, but only in the tongue-scraping way that drinking perfume would be. So Anna tells me.

568ml can, beer gift from Finn, Shared with Frau Eva. Bright golden coloured body, greyish-white head, some of it remaining. Spare lacing. Lighter aroma of pale malts, mid-sweet. Grainy malts in flavour, rather sweet. Sweet finish as well. High level of carbonation. Non-offensive, quite boring macro lager (Tromsø, 14.10.2012).

Regular Olvi bulk lager. Nothing to remember. Not bad, still not going to buy again.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
568 ml can. Pours clear deep golden with a large foamy head. Aroma of grain, hay, paper and a bit cloying maize. Taste of cloying sweet maize, grain, hay and mild grassy hoppyness. Stinging high carbonation, light bodied and watery mouthfeel. Dry grainy and a bit harsh finish. Not very bad but a basic lager and very typical Olvi taste.
