From the 50 cl can, in Finnish: "Pehmeän Maukas Vaalea Lager" or a "Soft Tasty Light Lager." And that's what this 5% Helles is. Soft, creamy, biscuity, herbal, and leafy, with a light honey finish. And damn tasty! Ingredients: water, malted barley (Finnish: Pilsner, Caramel Pale), hops (German: Magnum, Perle), and yeast. I need more of this beer in my life.

The smell is absolutely horrendous, almost like a damp cellar in dire need of spring cleaning. The taste however, is very enjoyable and fresh. Quite neutral, if you are into that - it doesn't offend nor excite you.

This was dirt-cheap, and it shows in the quality. It smells almost exclusively soapy. With that said, I found the taste/drinkability of this surprisingly mediocre considering the awful smell. It's bordering on sour, but with some well hidden malty sweetness.

This is not a good beer, but considering how taken aback I was by the smell it feels like the beer that had to work really hard to achieve a rating of 2.15. My emotional reaction to this beer is thus fairly positive, even though at the end of the day it is still a quite disastrous beer.
