3.2 Amber with a creamy white head that lingers. Aroma full of pine with mixed tropical fruits underneath. Nice. Taste is full bitter with some acridity at the finish. Unforgiving. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Drinkable.
3.9 Can from Beer 52. Aroma is mainly pine hops with some citrus and tropical fruit. Pours a golden yellow with a foamy white head. After an initial burst of lemon and grapefruit, pine hops again predominate in the mouth. Finish is dry and hoppy with a hint of ginger. Excellent – this is what a proper IPA should taste like.
3.6 Puszka. Mętne o dość ciemnym bursztynowym kolorze. Piana biała, średnia opada dość szybko. Sporo cytrusów, są grejpfruty ale także słodkie mandarynki. Słodkie owoce pestkowe, lekki karmel i ziarno. Do tego spora dawka żywicy. Wysycenie średnie,goryczka raczej mała, słodkie nuty biorą górę. Bardzo fajne

Taste is sweet malts, grapefruit, big citrus and pine notes, moderately resinous. Strong bitterness in the finish. Moderate body and carbonation. Very good IPA.

4.2 Appearance- Clear deep golden colour with large slightly off white foam. Aromas- Sweet and hoppy with strong notes of pine and resin, a touch of citrusy grasses, grapefruits and fresh green hops. Palate- Full body with smooth and thick texture leaving bitter dry finish. Taste- Initially sweetish and malty with notes of straw and sweetgrass but later developing rather punchy and harsh hoppiness with notes of bitter herbs, citruses and hops. Overall- Fantastic and solid IPA, not watery, great palate, aromas and taste!
4.4 Tap@O'Connell's, Tampere, Finland. Amarillo, Citra and Nelson Sauvin in their own character! Balanced, quite fresh product with slightly overaged fruits like mango and citrus. Also some hops detected. Medium/highly hopped. Medium taste spectrum and long aftertaste with hoppy fruits and slightly bitter malts. Medium body with medium carbonation. Overall, high quality IPA with reference nuances for slightly sweet British IPA. 8 5 9 4 18
4.0 IPA correcta. No és gaire amargant. No sé trobar el amarillo.
3.9 440 ml can at home, canned 26.3.2019. Pours a nearly clear dark golden with a white head. The aroma is medium hoppy and lightly to medium malty - pine, resin, some grapefruit, lots of bread, light floral notes, hints of caramel and hints of biscuit - nice smell. Medium body with a soft carbonation, a light to medium sweetness and a medium to medium-heavy bitterness. The flavor is similar to the smell, medium to medium-heavy hoppy with pine and resin and some bready and biscuity malt. Overall a classic IPA, very well balanced with lots of hops and a decent bitterness. Pretty good. Aroma: 8 Appearance: 4 Taste: 8 Mouthfeel: 4 Overall: 15
3.7 12-06-19 // can shared with the team. Super classical IPA, english touch. Malt body present. Lemon herbal hoppyness and a balanced bitterness. Nothing to complain about. Simple and good.
3.8 Color naranja pálido, translúcida. Espuma blanca de un dedo de espesor y corta retención. Aroma equilibrado entre cítrico y resinoso con un punto de hierba fresca. Sabor en esa línea, más resinoso y ese punto herbal del aroma se convierte en la boca en un completo bocado de césped verde, final, evidentemente, de amargor herbal, ligeramente seco. Textura entre acuosa y oleosa. Carbonatación media.
3.8 Deep frothy white head stayed on an unclear dark golden still body. Bitter hoppy aro a with catpiss, pine & grapefruit. Medium bodied, sharp & tingly over the to give with a light cloying finish. Bitter/Sweet citrus, pine, resin, grapefruit, pith & peach tastes with undercurrents of faint malt & a long tangy finish.
3.7 Tap at 100 piv. Quite your classic IPA. No surprises here. Med-high bitterness, moderate resiny zesty citrusy hops character, moderate body to support it all, with light honeyish maltiness present. Easy drinking, good one.
3.7 Vycap 100 pív. Vôňa krásna citrusova. Farba zlatista. Chuť citrusová jemna lahucka.
5.0 Cloudy poured haze of sheer liquid wonderment! Lightly floral flavours on the nose. Plenty of flavours that roll across the tongue. And a zesty fruity taste of flavoursome zing at the end! Oh yes
3.7 Taster from tap at Lajbah, Ljubljana. Hazy golden, small off-white head. Moderately hoppy, citrusy, fruity, some malts. Floral emerges, nice, almost perfumy. Moderate to high bitterness, very serious. Hoppy flavour profile. Sharp, but that is what is wanted. Medium body, still drinkable. Lingering finish. Although not complex, it is a proper example of an IPA that the society needs.
