This beer is the first "commercial" beer produced by a Helsinki-based activity center of persons with disabilities. The collaborating partners include Nokia Brewery, Finnish Beer Association and two shops that sell equipment and materials to homebrewers. The beer pours semimisty, light copper with zero carbonation. No head emerges on the top. The scent is modest but recognizeably Christmassy: some gingerbread with especially ginger and cinnamon emanates to the nostrils. The tongue receives more pronounced gingerbread, again with stronger ginger and cinnamon, accompanied by a pinch of lemon peel and significantly faint cardamom. The body is scanty as expected. The beer ends with truly watery lemon juice and distant ginger, followed by a little bit of cinnamon. The aftertaste vanishes hastily from the mouth. The mouthfeel is somewhat watery, flat, substantially Christmassy, a bit spiced and rather refreshing. Decent, seasonally flavored low-alc (2.8 %) Table Beer to accompany a meal. Much better, however, than its nonalcoholic "brothers".
