The Small Beer series continues: this is the series that we have brewed out of the second runnings of the Sahti wort and seasoned with one natural herb or flower or uncommon berry each time. We have brewed already 19 flavored versions plus two unflavored ones, so all the pleasant tasting herbs and flowers start to be exhausted. There are still a lot of edible plants available, of course, but they tend to taste like weed and are not particularly inviting. Can't help, the show must go on. This version was infused with willowherb. Okay, here we go. The beer looks lucid, deep gold. The carbonation is a bit limited but sufficient. A fluffy, clean white head remains below one finger and dies fast away. The scent offers barley malt, slightly worty, a bit of bread, a wisp of dry grass and a weedy note. It has the element that I was afraid it may portray but the weedy side is still not disturbing. The taste is pretty similar to the olfactory supply: barley malt but not actually worty, which is good because wortiness gives an unfinished impression. Bread can also be spotted, dry grass and faint citrus. Not bad if not too appealing either. The basic undertone is grassy, I can't associate the taste with willowherb, it could be basically any plant in the garden with no particular character though. Or maybe I just don't know all the plants thoroughly enough. The body is light minus. Sufficient for the moderate ABV. Ends like it starts. The mouthfeel is light minus, refreshing, marginally herbal, slightly crisp as well as balanced. Simple. Maybe I should characterize this product as "not as bad as it could be". It's actually relatively okay. The willowherb is not known to be an extraordinarily tasty plant, which is reflected in the taste profile. Therefore, the taste is somewhat generic with an unrecognizable herbal twist only.
