Ukko-Pekka Alkoholiton Pöytäolut
Can brought back from Oulu by me Mum. New region tick and wanted it as it's where her family are originally from. Aroma is low key - a tad malty, a tad citrusy, watery. Clear light gold. Frothy foamy white head. Initial light sugary malts. Some citrus, which adds bitterness into the finish. Boiled veg core. Light. Thin. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Sugary malty stuff. Not horrible but hardly a replacement for beer.

From the Can at Chris O's Pre-GBBF Shindig 04/08/2012 Malty aroma. Golden coloured fruity and a little sweet on the palate with a hint of dryness in a full malt finish.

Ukko-Pekka perinteinen kotikalja
Big 1500ml plastic bottle kindly shared by djoeye. Black in the glass, filmy layer, clingy lacing. Sweet smell of roasted bread. Dark bread and dried fruity flavours, sweet. Roasted sweet malty end. Okay, but overly sweet. (Rating session with lmojoh, Finn and djoeye, at Finn's, Tromsø 28.01.2021).

50 cl can.
Pours pale clear golden color with a large white head. Super sweet aroma, artificial at that, corn notes, wet cardboard. Flavor is bitter with mild malty notes, grain, corn, toffee. Slick palate, medium carbonation. A one-time deal for sure.

500ml can from a supermarket in Helsinki. Clear gold colour, small fizzy mostly vanishing white head, some lacing. Aroma of grain and boiled vegetables, marginal hint of grassy hops. Taste is initially slightly sweet turning into a a finish that hs hardly any taste except for metallic. Light body, dry texture that turns watery fairly quickly, lively carbonation. Fairly weak even for a nonalcoholic beer, drinkable but would rather have mineral water.

50 cl can @ home, BBE 30.05.2014
Pale appearance with some small partickles floating – wtf? Aroma has wet cardboard, some citrusy notes and hints of corn. Flavour starts with cardboard, gets soon some metallic savors and finishes quite empty with some citrus typical to cleaning liquids. Teh horror.

1 500 ml plastic bottle as Rainbow Kotikalja/Svagdricka. BB 03/11/13. (Prisma) Helsinki, Finland.
Dark brown colour with a small off-white head. The aroma is rye bread, malty sweetness and The flavour is dryer with rye bread, mild tartness and hints of citrus. Not bad but not traditional kotikalja either.

Pours a bright clear yellow with a thin white cap of foam. Nose has a little malty sweetness with a touch of earthiness or dung. Taste is sweet followed by a slight dryness. Leaves a metallic taste in the mouth. Feels watery and thin in the mouth. Ok to quench your thirst on a hot summer day, atleast better than a sugar-laden sodapop.

Bottle at Chriso’s Pre-GBBF Shindig, 2012, London. Pours clear yellow with a medium, white foam head. Poopy hay in the nose, some corn. Medium sweet flavor with corn, cereal, light metal. Light bodied with moderate carbonation. Sugary sweet finish, some buttered popcorn, straw. Weak effort here, fellas.

Bottle at Chriso’s Pre-GBBF Shindig 2012. Pale gold with a fine white head. So much grain going on as well as paper, corn & rice ’qualities’. Some vegetable notes too. Light body, watery & thin in the mouth, medium to full carbonation with no real bitterness or finish to speak of. Dull but no quite offensive.

Bottle @ Chriso’s Pre-GBBF Shindig. The pour’s light gold with no head. The nose is nasty rotting burning vegetables, some light chili powder. The taste is much the same - nasty corn, rotting vegetable. Ugh. Light body. Terrible.

500 ml can. Pale yellow with minimal head. Weak if any aroma. Soda-like palate, quite watery. Not much of a beer, but still better than sugary lemonade for quenching one’s thirst on a hot day.
