Rich orange, large thick head. Slight malty grainy aroma. Lively carbonation, possibly a bit harsh. Creamy and tangy bitter taste. Bitterness hangs around for quite a tasty finish. Good lager, and I don’t normally like lagers. mjs (1541), Helsinki, Finland

Amber colour, mediumsized creamy white head. Malty, typical kouluish vegetably aroma. Flavour of vegetably malts. Hoppy finish. One dimensional, and quite boring. omhper (12283), Stockholm, Sweden
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | Oct 6, 2003 Sampled draught at the brewpub.
Brownish amber, some head. A hint of vinegar in the nose. Dry and dusty, sharp, thin and fizzy. Slightly roasty. Except for being dry, and having a slight touch of grassy bitterness this beer has not many redeeming features, and bears no resemblance to the style it's aiming at.
