#summerbeer22 A surprise invitation by our summerhouse neighbors: a new batch of local Sahti for tasting. Juhannussahti by the local brewer didn't impress me, far from it actually. Let's see if this performs any better. The Sahti colors misty, light-brown. Even with a slight, deep orange hue. Carbonation is basically nonexistent but a surprisingly good, latte-hued, soapy head forms on the top and melts then quickly away. The scent offers the familiar banana aroma, nicely ample, and some dried apricot as well as sweet bun. Much better than the Juhannussahti version. Banana hovers beautifully on the tongue. It's somewhat fermented but doesn't forget fresh flavor completely either. I can also pick some dried apricot and a bit of orange peel as a new element. The taste is considerable nicer than that of Juhannussahti. There isn't such an unpleasant alcoholic touch as what disturbed me last time. The body is medium-full. The finish doesn't change from upfront at all. The aftertaste dives into the Scandinavian pagan history for a while. The mouthfeel is soft, smooth and lip-glueing. It's also modestly tart but neatly attractive. Good stuff this time!
