A: The beer is crystal clear amber in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a off white head that left a layer of bubbles covering the surface and a collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of caramelized malts are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and is rather malty with flavors of caramel and toasted malts, hints of malty sweetness, and a light amount of bitterness.
M: It feels medium-bodied and a bit clean on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is nice and malty but isn't overly heavy on the palate. There are just enough hops to help prevent things from becoming too sweet.
Serving type: can

Brief impressions from a 50cl can in Kuopio:
This is a nice clean-tasting amber lager with a nice albeit minimal toasted malt presence and a crisp overcarbonated mouthfeel. Appearance is generic for the style, and the aroma brings only basic notes of clean barley, pilsner malts, and Noble hops. But overall, it's well balanced and pleasant to drink, if simple and shallow. Aptly medium-bodied, with decently dialed-in thickness on the palate for an amber lager. Smooth, wet, and approachable.
Some drinkers might notice a faint metallic tone throughout.
It won't impress the discerning drinker but it's a drinkable lager. Definitely a few cuts above the usual pale lager schlock sitting beside it on Finnish hypermarket shelves. I'd buy it again if not for the price.
C+ (3.16) / ABOVE AVERAGE
