Laitilan Kesä

Formerly brewed at Laitilan Wirvoitusjuomatehdas
Style: California Common
Laitila, Finland

Bottled. Smells nuts, a bit roasted. Taste almost smokey. Dark dark, a bit hazy with a tiny white head.

Light lemonade yellow, quick fizzy head. Fruity and vegetably nose, wheat and yeastiness. Flavor is quite malty with citric hops, quite strong soap, a bit spicy finish. Medium bodied, average carbonation. A few off-flavors, still quite nice & refreshing.

Bottled at Old Bank, Turku. Clear golden, rich airy head. Ashy fruity nose. Light-medium bodied with spritzy mouthfeel. Short but lively wheat malt flavour followed by banana and minerals. Finishes with salty hop bitter finish. An interesting, drinkable beer

Slightly cloydy yellow beer with medium white head. There are some bitterness and wheatbeet-like aromas. Something forest type flavour is found, maybe pine needles, but that makes flavour little fusty. Little too much of carbonation with some spicy flavours but still medium body even with these alcohol procent. Pine needles dominate little too much but still Laitilan kesä differs from other lager, positive ways.

Murky yellow, white small head diminishes totally. Sour yeasty fresh, medium bodied. bitter hops. Fresh hoppy yet yeasty aroma

Pours hazy golden colour with a quickly vanishing small head. Sweet aroma having some malts and hoppy notes of grass, citrus and bananas. Unfiltered yeastiness gives some edge and character for this beer.

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet malts, grassy hops and some mild vegetably notes. Flavour is bigtime grass, some fudgeish/caramellish malts with mild wheaty and saltwatery notes. A good, easy-to-drink and refreshing summerbeer.

500ml bottle (Kitty’s, Helsinki)
Yellow, fizzy head. Fresh wheaty and hoppy aroma. Very simple light malty taste. Very tangy hoppy taste - like other laitilan hops, quite pungent, but not as vegetal. Refreshing, wheaty and pretty tasty.
