lagomswedish (206), Umeĺ, Sweden May 5, 2008 Bottle from ALKO in Finland. Hugely sweet porter that is way off balance. I struggled to find anything behind the sweetness and gave up after a few sips. That they add sugar - among other things - marks this beer right down in my book. Drink enough of this stuff and your teeth will all fall out.
