Keg (Pikkulintu, Helsinki)
Rich red, healthy keg head. Wheaty, sugar puffs and coriander seed aroma. Also some hints of ginger. Sharp carbonation. Slightly soapy hops, a little bit of wet sheep. A little thin, but quite refreshing. Not a usual brown ale.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy to clear deep orange/brown with a lacing off-white head. Citric to green peachy hops aroma. Malty and liqourice note too. Flavour is mild fruity hops with a solid bitter bite closely following this. Quite dense caramel fnish with a lasting breadish note far into the finish. 8 months after BBD - holding up great!

Draught at Pikkulintu. Pale brown fast disappearing head. Copper brown colour. Maltiness and more than average hoppiness. Syrup and malty taste. Bite of hops at the end.

Draught, 5.3%. Grassy hop aroma. Clear dark brown colour, stable creamy light brown head. The flavour is malty and quite hoppy. Distinct bitterness, quite late, could get a bit too rough.
