Keg (Kitty’s, Helsinki)
Mid orange, thin head. Fruity toffee and caramel aroma - quite big. Very fizzy in the mouth, needs a lot of swirling. Aroma becomes a bit of wet sheep, a little creamy, some hops and lightly roasted malt, but a bit lagery. Grainy and shreddies in the taste. Feels a bit flat, but that’s probably as it was keg.
Miksu (1175), Jyväskylä, Finland
Jul 17, 2008 Draught at Gastropub Jalo, Jyväskylä. Copper color. Sweet aroma with herbal hops, honey and malty melanoidins. Sweetish and malty flavor with malt melanoidins, some herbal hops and some bitterness. Needs far more hops.
janir (131), Oulu, Finland
Jul 12, 2008 Clear coppery color. Head is white, thick, long-lasting and lacy. Very strong caramel malty aroma is also flowery, grassy hoppy and fresh. Toffy, buttery and caramel malty flavor with nice bitter finish. Medium-bodied and foamy carbonated palate.
taunusmies (221), Finland
Jun 15, 2008 Clear, deep golden colour with a medium head. Aroma is slightly dominated by grassy hops having also malty, bready elements. Notes of fruits and toffee. A bit buttery aftertaste.
Rune (1497), Tromsø, Norway
Jun 8, 2008 On tap at the brewhouse (CVC) in Copenhagen. Shared with Finn A. Thin, white head over a crystal clear, amber-golden body. Malty-sweet nose. Mild in flavour with herbs, grain and hops. Medium bodied. Smooth mouthfeel. More than average for the style, in other words; a decent pilsener (29.05.2008).
