Miksu (4537) - Jyväskylä, FINLAND - MAR 1, 2011
0.5 l can from K-Länsiväylä, Jyväskylä. Copper color, long lasting head. The aromas of honeyish and slightly bready malt and some light caramel. Honeyish malty and slightly fruity flavor with hint of herbal hops. Not very bitter, yet some hoppy roughness in finish. Very distant hint of toffeish and nutty dark malt character. Almost like a standard Swedish lager.

mikkopen (662) - Oulu, FINLAND - FEB 10, 2011
500 ml can. Clear pale amber colour, thin white head. Sweetish malty aroma with a hint of grassy hops. The flavour is like the aroma: sweetish malty, with a mildly bitter hoppy finish. Simple and a little dull, but drinkable.

Hermod (2196) - Vantaa, FINLAND - JAN 29, 2011
50cl can, Prisma Jumbo, Vantaa. Poured amber color with a white head, highly carbonated. Some sweet malty and bready aroma. Flavor is sweet malty, some hoppyness towards finish. Exceeded my expectations, although wouldn´t have guessed this to be an altbier.

Marko (3612) - Split, CROATIA - NOV 21, 2011
Oooh yeah, this one’s "all mine", bought in Finland, shared with ogivlado. Not sure but a thanks to a friend who carried some of my beers to Croatia might be in order, so a "thanks Mišo!" goes here. Anyway. Golden body, full and dull. The same 2 adjectives can be used for the malty nose, polleny/flowery in a bad way. Empty sweetish, vaguely polleny taste, slightly oily. Better than the nose, overall hardly good, but not particularly bad. Unless you look at the style, then there’s just no excuse.
