Jun 3, 2007 Updated: Sep 11, 2007Appearance: Pours a mostly clear, pale copper body with a sudsy white head. Good lacing, too.
Smell: Toasted nuts with a bit of caramel and some light soapy, floral hop notes.
Taste: Light caramel malt sweetness with more of those toasted nuts. Hops, though relatively mild, provide flavors of grapefruit and lemon. The taste of pine appears just before the brief, bitter finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Mild carbonation.
Drinkability: It’s okay!

Jun 3, 2007 Pours a dark, clear amber with a frothy off-white head. The aroma is fairly muted with a light nuttiness and a faint hoppy spiciness. Medium-bodied with an odd nutty-metallic finish, the flavor is sweet malts with a nutty, bitter finish and a metallic aftertaste. This Pale starts off well enough, but the finish keeps this one from being a repeat performer.

May 29, 2007 Gotta agree with EithCubes, very sweet hoppy floral aroma. Bitter and malty sweet going down, nice finish.

May 20, 2007 Bottle. Sweet hoppy aroma, floral with lychee and some light grapefruit. Clear pale orange with another huge soapish beige head. Predominately yeasty taste, lightly malty but skewed toward the hops. Spicy with a touch of toast malt and nuttiness. Caramel and florality. Thin body, slightly hoppy aftertaste. Easy-drinking, but not really feeling this one.

May 19, 2007 12 oz bottle, bottled the 2nd week of March. Clear amber with a thin white head. Nose is sweet caramel malt and earthy hops. Toasty malt and mild earth flavors. Fairly well balanced. Just a bit weak in the finish, when a slight citrus bite shows up. Solid.

May 14, 2007 Updated: Jan 25, 2009Rating is average of 2 tastings - bottle and keg
355ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki , American Week 2007).
Typical unsophisticated US style overrelyance on hops to carry a beer. Unbalanced, lacking a full malty body, and instead being sticky and sweet. (4-3-5-3-12=2.7)
Keg (Pikkulintu, Helsinki, American Weeks 2009)
Pleasant, gingery, hoppy. OK quaff. Sherbet finish, sweet palate. Nice. (6-4-7-3-13=3.3)

May 10, 2007 This is pretty fucking accessible and digestable, however, there are way better beers brewed by this company. Try their IPA, it will put hair on your bush.
