Lucked out and got a table in Sori Taproom on a busy Saturday evening.

The restaurant (ex-Kipinä / Comic Sans Sushi / many others) was packed full of tables, but it did not feel awkwardly crowded.

The selection on tap isn’t fully restricted to house beers, but they do feature prominently.

Had a three course dinner, where both the appetizer (soft-shell crab) and main course (brisket & flank steak) were excellent, and the dessert (pie with ice cream) was by no means bad either. A big plus goes out to the unseasoned meat, there’s a sixpack of sauces provided with the meal so that every customer can try out which flavour works out the best with each dish.

The beers are served a multiple glass sizes, and I was glad that Lizard of Koz was served in a 22 cl one. This was a clear miss from Founders, with far too much juiciness (and even plain sugar) in the taste.

Finally got a chance to try out Ikii Urso, Hiisi’s big brother to a persistent gargantuan favorite of mine. Ikii Urso is a dense beer indeed, packed with taste and alcohol. Roasty and sweet, with both chocolate and caramel in the taste. Thick and oily mouthfeel cap the anti-refreshing experience.

Will be back.
