Commercial Description:
Sinebrychoff Kaura is blond, non-filtered bottom yeast beer, made by combining two rarely used malts, barley and oat. The product has been seasoned with a hint of honey. The taste of Kaura is fresh and fruity and a little sweet, due to the addition of honey. The aftertaste is long and softly refreshing. Honey-oat beer is best when served at a temperature of 8-12 degrees. As it is non-filtered, honey-oat beer contains more Betaglucane (a soluble fibre necessary for digestion) than other beers. Kaura honey-oat beer contains over 1000 mg/l of the fibre, when the average amount in beer is 50 mg/l. Original gravity: 11 %Pl, Colour: 10,5 EBC, Bitterness: 15 EBU.

Bottle, 0,5l. This is a beer with a smooth feel on the tongue, and a strong honey-aroma and flavour. The honey is complementing this beer, not ruining it. It looks hazy but a bit more yellow than your typical wheat beer. Niiice surprice from Finland.

Bottled 0,50L. Much compact and adherent head, discreet duration. Shining yellow color, lightly dark and loads, dense impression. Sweet and unusually honey scent, light malty notes, slightly pungent. Medium taste, delicate and little lively. Determined notes of honey and candy with a little bitter and a lightly mellow final. Uncommon.
Thanks to mabjork for this beer.

Bottled. Clear yellow with a white head, lacings. The smell of honey is strongly present in the aroma I’m wonderin wheater or not it is oats or malt that I’m smelling or if I’m fooled by the name? It has a sweet honeylike taste with malt. I like it, quite superb really.

An orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of honey, while the flavor is malty again with primary notes of honey, but on a thin body.

RBESG05: Clear gold in colour. Honey nose, loads of spice too. Clean malty flavour, with some interesting honey spice notes in the finish. Suprsingly drinkable.

Bottled at RBESG 2005. Clear yellow coloured with an off white head. Aroma of honey and dried fruits. Sweet flavour of fruits and honey. Not bad for an pale lager.

(on bottle at RBESG 2005)Funny history, but I don´t really detect the oats. Or do I? Semi-hazy yellow colour and a white head. has a odd commomilearoma and that could be tha oat.somewhat malty and a small hopfinish, easy drinkable.

(Bottle 50 cl) An oats-beer? Have I tried this before apart from oatmeal stouts? Hmmm, don’t really remember - but they’re definately not common. But disappointingly this isn’t really that different from an ordinary lager. But the honey-notes are indeed pronounced and very delicious. Gets better and a bit more unusual the more you get into this. Rather amusing that the commercial description claims barley to be a "rarely used" malt. Well, I’ve got news for you fellers.... 160405
