| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 1, 2009 Updated: Apr 2, 2009(Bottled) Clear golden with a medium, firm head. Citrusy-grassy hops in the fruity-malty aroma. Strongly bitter, lemony-fruity flavor with moderate maltiness, and a slightly ashy-dull, steam beer -like finish. Medium body with soft carbonation. Really a world of difference between 2 bottles bought at the same time from the same shelf. Maybe some quality control issues, but I’m glad the second sample was ok (first was 6-3-5-3-12=2.9).

Nice dry and crispy mouthfeel, long aftertaste. Hoppy grapefruit, extra bitterness, some grassy notes there. Overall great addition to Finnish beers. mjs (1542), Helsinki, Finland

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 31, 2009 50cl bottle. Clear golden with coarse white head. Straightforward citric hoppy nose, lemon seeds, grass and grainy malts, little toast. Flavor is dry malts and mild citric fruits. Warming peppery and a tad minty finish with truly lingering grassy bitterness. Light bodied, average carbonation. Quite mild aroma hops for being dry-hopped, but the bitterness really bites. Probably Laitilas best beer to date. Archibaldo de la Cruz (418), Finland
