| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Apr 9, 2009 Bottle. Copper colour with a small white head. Hoppy aroma with pine, citrus and some other fruits. The flavour is pine, fruits and toffee with some bitterness in the finish. Not bad, but I was expecting a little bit more from this. rosenbergh (992), Helsinki, Finland
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Apr 5, 2009 355 ml bottle. Finland.
Reddish amber colour with thin white head.
Nice fruity hoppy aroma. Sweet flavour with hops. Watery. I was expecting more from this since Brooklyn Lager is a great beer. Not bad. I guess this is brewed because Alko doesn’t sell the Brooklyn Lager anymore. TBone (6868), Pori, Finland
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Apr 5, 2009 Bottled (BB 02/2010).
Clear copper color, small off-white head. Bready nose with citrusy hops and fruits. A bit oily palate with crisp carbonation. Light citrus (orange), orange peel, a bit of sweet fruits and notes of yeast. Light brew - flavor is dissapointing - but probably reasonably refreshing sauna beer for the summer. TET (246), Finland
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 4, 2009 Beautiful, copper-brown beer with small and white head. Aroma is pleasant, lot of tropical fruits, some bitterness and pine needles; Cascade and Amarillo won’t let you down. Fruits are gone from the flavour, and there are some bitterness, pine needles, grass and simple taste. Quite easy to drink but not watery. Apperance and aroma was promised quite a lot but flavour was slightly disappointment, anyway quite nice beer that I will buy more. oh6gdx (9109), Vasa, Finland
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 3, 2009 Bottled (from K Citymarket Kivihaka, Vaasa). Amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is hops, and rather bready malty. Flavour is bready malts along with some soap and also quite much flowery and earthy hops. tlind2 (605), Helsinki, Finland
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 31, 2009 12 oz bottle (as American Ale). Coppery color, frothy off-white head. Fresh hop aroma. Smooth, bitter flavor with citric hops. Very drinkable. Medium-light body, medium carbonation. The aroma is the best part, the taste doesn’t really match up. Not bad, though.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 31, 2009 Updated: Apr 13, 20090.355 l bottle from K-market Länsiväylä, Jyväskylä. Copper color. Lime, pine and toffee in the aroma. Dry toffeish and biscuity flavor with some mild fruity-citrusy hops. Biscuity, lemony, salty and bitter finish. Light bodied and somewhat bland. Lalli (165), Helsinki, Finland
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Mar 26, 2009 355ml bottle, like my fellow Finns labeled "American Ale". Nice light amber color. Nose is surprisingly malty at first, with hints of bitter hops. Taste is disappointingly watery, even though refreshing citric hops can be found.
