Teerenpeli Kampin Brown Ale

Brewed by Panimoravintola Teerenpeli
Style: Brown Ale
Lahti, Finland

Draught (Teerenpeli, Helsinki) - Brown with red tinges and a foamy head. Dry and malty aroma with a slightly fruity hint. Moderately bitter taste with some fruity hint and some roasted malt with a roasted and lightly hoppy finish. Not a traditional brown ale in my opinion but a good interpretation. It has the potential to be better though.

Tap at Teerenpeli Kamppi. Brown, lacy beige head. Nose is a bit yeasty, some nuttiness and roasted malts. Flavor is a bit homebrewy sour, flat with a bit of that nice brown ale nuttiness somewhere in the background. Overall feel is loose and lacks body. Not my kind of brown ale. There seems to be two kinds of Teerenpeli brews. The other one being sturdy and professionally solid, and the other flat and homebrewy. This is homebrewy.

Draught (Teerenpeli, Helsinki)
Completely turbid orangy brown. Simple slightly sweet nutty aroma. Served cold, needed to be held in the hand for a while. Carbonation lively, but not excessive. Simple, but tasty. Some caramel, and a touch of nuttiness. Fairly full and pleasing in the mouth, but very refreshing.
