After an appalling example of a pilsner some time back, I've risked a Rutherglen IPA 'Turon Widow'. Happy to say it's decent. Sells like an IPA without being a shining example. Not an overtly hoppy pale ale, an IPA. Fruity hops with borderline pine and pushing more on the juicy side. Give it a crack.
 
I should have learned by now that if you can't understand the language on a beer then google it before you buy it. I saw Citra and Mosaic on the labels and got excited. When its 6:40pm and still 40c i can almost understand why people like sour beers. Almost. Mikkeller Spontandryhop Mosaic. The Citra tasted the same to me.

First ever sour beer and I liked it, completely different from anything else I've tried.
 
Yep. About 10 minutes from Ivalo hoping to see the northern lights although the weather doesn't look promising. Google says it's -11. Our guide said we missed the -41 cold snap last week.
 
At St Urho's pub in Helsinki. It's 3 minutes walk from our room which is a stroke of luck. It seems to have a bit of history behind it. Probably nothing new to frequent OS travellers but the beers on tap taste so much better than what I've had in Australia. Drinking a Hoegaarden now. The Fuller's ESB on the hand pump was magic. I went to Brewdog last night and had lost of great beers. Ten Fiddy on tap was superb. Leaving tonight unfortunately.

Had a few commercial beers over the past week or so.

Fred IPA from Murrays - had this after a wheat ale so the aroma and flavour was pretty obvious.

God damn. I like me some hops but they are on another level.
