3.3 12 oz bottle at Parkway Social. Pours a clearish golden colour with modest-sized white head. Aroma is muddled tropical fruit with citrus and grains. Flavour is mellow passionfruit and grapefruit with graininess. Body verging on medium. Solid.

3.3 355ml bottle. Poured clear amber with a tall and lasting off-white. Mango, passionfruit, peach aromas. Zesty plate and a dry bitterness of moderate length and intensity. Mid-weight, medium carbonation, firm mouthfeel.

3.4 Can. It pours bit hazy yellow with a creamy white head. Notes of floral and citrusy hops. Light malty. Quite bitter hoppy finish.

3.6 3,800원 거품이 거의 없고, 초반의 과일향과 씁쓸한 뒷맛이 있으며, 수산물과 잘 어울림 패션프루트, 오렌지, 구아바 농축액이 포함됨

3.4 330ml bottle @Jumbo, Breda. Lovery synergy between fruity sour, light sweet ang hops bitter. Very bitter for 4.5%, but it is smooth infused in overall flavor. Pours light amber, no top or lasing. Medium carbonation, but feels fizzy enough. Im surprised of balance from bitter- not much malt thickness, body, but more fruity flavors. Interesting for brewing ideas.

2.8 12 oz. Aroma has notes of passionfruit, guava, cat piss, orange, pine, bready malt. Pours hazy orange with a one finger bone white head that falls into a ring quickly. Taste has a light to moderate pithy bitterness and a hint of tartness. Watery harshly carbonated mouthfeel. Bland and mediocre.

3.2 pour dark gold colour with no head at all. amazing smell of guava hits the nostrils . Tart taste of orange peel with bitter finish that lingers. Medium ale like body with nice carbonation.

3.3 Bottle at Napoli Stories, Küttigen. Pours a clear golden colour with very little head. Aroma is light hops, citrus, pine. Light body. Flavour is light malt, crystal malt, light pine, herbal hops. Just fine, a good alternative to a lager as it's refreshing and not too complicated.

2.6 Really odd fruit flavours just stamped on top of a just okay session IPA. Passion fruit and guava make it fruity but in a rather offputting way.

2.7 Clear golden, white head. Aroma is peach and perfumed artificial flavouring. Candy, winegum and pineneedle. Bottle shared with jmd and eo.

1.7 Bottle shared with JMD and JFE at Bjørnøy 06.09.21. Golden. Some white head. Aroma of perfume and toilet cleaner, with a gentle touch of fresh sewage. Taste of dried apricot, tropical fruit jam and wine gum.

2.5 Mini-rbhd (trekkspilleren, eiendomsbaronen + undertegnede) på Bjørnøy sep-21: nå en 0,33 flaske fra Coop Extra. Klar gylden med kort skum. Paryme/såpe i aroma og iste med kunstig ferskensmak er noen av de mindre flatterende bemerkningene som svirrer rundt bordet. Merkelig ettersmak.

3.5 On tap @ Growler USA Honolulu. Cloudy orange beer with a white head. Has a lot of passion fruit and orange with the guava being a little less up front. A fair amount of biscuity malt aroma and flavor, which I wasn't expecting. There is a nice bit of passion fruit and guava tang to the flavor with sweet orange and pineapple notes to it as well. Light grassy and pithy bitterness. Pretty decent beer.

2.5 Bitter, lite fruktig

3.3 Pours clear gold, big white head. Aroma is mango, orange, tangerine. Taste is similar, moderate hop bitterness, I guess the other tropical fruits as well. Not bad fruited IPA.

1.7 Bière bouteille au bar du camping de La Rive. Bière très décevante entre goût de lager et de panaché. Pas une vraie Ipa selon moi et pour un connaisseur

3.6 Really quite like this one. Slightly hazy golden with a nice head of foam. Some nice bitterness without being overwhelming while the tropical fruits lingers perfect having BBQ Flank Steak in the 30 degree Celsius summer.

3.2 355ml bottle. Pours orange gold, medium transparency, with fine white foam. Aroma is somehow orange, mandarin and tropical. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is medium bitter. Final is weak.

3.3 Medium gold pour, quick off white topper. Nose is guava and passionfruit. Middle is slightly unripe guava, orange, floral, medium kilned malt. Finish is fruity with a citrus hop dryness. OK.

4.0 Bottled 0,33L. Unclear yellow/orange color, much fizzy and bubbly aspect with foamy white head of medium resistance. Aroma is moderate malty, with notes of fruits, pine, pale malt, tropical fruits, white bread. Pleasant crisp and lively palate, refreshing and fizzy impression, intence fruity and tropical mouth with long bitter/sweet body and fruity/hoppy final.

3.3 Bottle. Thanks to my father-in-law! Cloudy amber gold with a small, foamy, off white head that lasts and laces. Aromas of passion fruit, straw, bread, light mixed berries, pine, and pear. Flavor is sweet upfront with passion fruit dominating and some guava and slight orange peel and pear that moves into straw and biscuit and sweet toasted malt with just a slightly bitter pine and floral note. Light plus bodied, crisp with a dry finish. Highly drinkable.

3.1 Poured from the tap. Clear gold with white head. Mild pear and passionfruit, hint of berry, slight dry bitterness on the finish. Seems slightly unbalanced, but decent nonetheless.

3.4 @ Havregatan 20210507. Bottle (355 ml ) from Systembolaget. Hoppy, fruity and citrusy with tropical fruits like pineapple and passion fruit, medium body with a watery texture. The finish is bitter.

3.1 Couleur dorée, légère mousse. Nez malté et fruité clairement sur la passion . Gout malté doux et fruité juteux sur la goyave et note passions. Corps assez leger. Fin douce. Ca passe pour une session

3.6 Very fruity aroma of orange, peach and pineapple. Sweet taste with bitter ending.

3.3 35,5cl Bottle @ Drinks of The World, Geneva, Switzerland. Golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma is malt, hops, citrus, tropical fruits. Taste is malt, sweet, hops, citrus, peach, mango, resin. Medium body, average carbonation.

4.0 Mycket trevlig session ipa

4.0 Backlog from 2019. Pours clear gold with a small white head. It smells wonderfully tropical with passion fruit and guava dominating the aroma. Flavor improves as it warms going from mostly hops bitterness to a moderately bitter, malty, tropical fruit heavy IPA that’s refreshing and delicious. It’s the best session IPA I’ve had. It probably helps that it was likely fresh and being in Hawaii at the time certainly didn’t hurt.

3.2 Enjoyed: Poured from bottle into glass. Appearance: Blurry golden/orange colour, medium short-lived head. Aroma: Malt, fruits (passion fruit, mango, orange). Palate: Light body, gentle carbonation. Taste: Malt, fruits (passion fruit, mango, orange), gentle hops, gentle bitter aftertaste. Overall impression: Very easy and drinkable, refreshing.

3.1 Bottle from local Jumbo supermarket. Color: Clear golden, white head. Aroma: Floral, malty, where is the hop? Taste: Again floral, fruity notes of passion fruit, guava and a little bit orange. Pretty malty. Hoppy background, floral hop. Just under medium body, average carbonation. Mwah. Not much going on.
