Can, oh this was good when one was wee and in Finland. Now one is not wee and not in Finland. To much alcoholic, metallic flavors.

330ml bottle from Alko Muonio. Airy, bubbly white head. Clear, golden-amber body. Earth malts in aroma with wet paper notes. Malty sweetness makes up the flavour with a discreet finish containing hints of rounded hop bitterness. Medium bodied. By and large alright for the style (Tromsø, 22.09.2009).

330 ml can. From m/s Silja Serenade. Clear bronze colour with small white head. Boiled vegetables, caramel and metal alltogether in aroma. Wood, vegetables and malt in quite stale flavour. Some hoppy bitterness in aftertaste. Far away from the refreshing taste of Karhu III.

Its an okay beer if served cold (only bottle - can ruins its taste). Maybe a little too malty. I would not recommend this beer in addition to a meal but it works great as a saunabeer.

A 0.33L bottle from Alko. Mild malty nose. Pale golden yellow colour. Slightly sweet malty taste. Bitter hoppiness. Fast dissappearing pale head.

Can. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of cardboard. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of citrus and cardboard. The body is thin. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.
