The best beer of the months was also the most expensive one (some correlation, definitely no causation): Mikkeller’s Beer Geek Cocoa Shake sampled when the brewery opened a bar in Helsinki. Essentially this is a liquid chocolate cake, and would be awesome as a dessert beer in November – served way-too-chilled on an ever-bright summer evening was not its optimal operating environment.

The domestic winner was Radbrew’s Wasteland Oasis, a well-hopped wheat beer. The hops keep the bananish aromas well in check, and the beer is refreshing and very summery indeed.
FI: Vahva kontrasti – toinen toimii kesällä ja toinen olisi parhaimmillaan muumilaakson marraskuun depistä vastaan taistellessa.
