A cloaklike nose. Quite foaming. Some hoppiness in the nose. Thin and waterly taste with some hints of malts. Slight vanilla in the nose. A 0.33L bottle from local shop.

Canned. Pale golden beer. Small and diminishing white head. Aroma is grainy and there is some vegetable-like notes in it. Unpleasant, stingy hops in the finish. Some grassy elements are detectable. Quite metallc finish. Flavor is dryish and grainy with light bitter finish. Light bodied and a bit fizzy carbonation. Somewhat unpleasant mouthfeel with fizzy Co2 and stingy hops. Maybe the worst Finnish bulk lager.

Golden-yellow colored beer with small white head. Aroma is sweet malty, slightly buttery. Grainy malty flavor with strange bitterness. Light-bodied and carbonatedly foamy palate.

Bright bronze colour with a thin foam. Reminiscent of honeyed whole grain toast with shy floral accents. Light grains are quickly replaced by a brackish mid-palate then a leafy finish. Weightless and watery; soft carbonation and building astringency.

Strange minerality and numbing quality in contrast to a pleasing appearance and aroma.

33 cl can, best before 07.10.2008. Tasted blind in a class III showdown, 4th place (of 8).
