Lovely iced tea brown pour. Head is creamy for 2 seconds, then it runs for cover. Nose is of brown sugar and day old bakery. Tastes like cold coffee with cinnamon, caramel, and something else I can’t put my finger on. Smells and looks good. ****NOW HEAR THIS, NOW HEAR THIS!!!!!*** I don’t like this at all. But you might! So give it a try yourself. My sense of taste may be different from yours.

Brown/amber color. Nice aroma’s of brown sugar, fruits, and spices. The flavor is similar, but clean, easy to drink and not overdone. Sure, there is nothing extreme about it, but it’s a solid lager.

355 ml bottle. 5.6%. Finland.
Clear reddish brown colour with small off-white head. Aroma is sweetish caramel and malt with spices and hints of hops. Sweet flavour with some hops, malt, spices and ginger. Bitter aftertaste. This is enough for me for this season...
