2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 Snegurochka (320) - Tromsø, NORWAY - APR 24, 2013
500ml can from Einotekis, Finland. Shared at Back to School Beer Session 22.Aug.2011. Organic and green, which is mirrored in the design. Still, what looks like two sami people next to a haystack(?) is quite peculiar. Pours a hazy golden body with foamy head, that rapidly diminishes. Sweet fruity aroma, straw and hint of citrus and celery. Grass, honey with hint of tobacco, clove and citrus in taste. Dry finish! It’s looks, tastes and feels very organic and green.
