Aroma is light citrus , grapefruit and clove. Taste is citrus, clove and light malts. Appearance is a hazy yellow body with a thin pearl head that retains fairly poorly.
330 ml bottle. Pours a hazy orange copper colour with a small foamy head. Aroma of sweet passion fruit, some herbal notes and also grains. Flavour of sweet juicy fruitiness, floral bitterness, lemon peel and grainy malts. Light bodied with a very juicy, mildly bitter finish. Rather subtle in bitterness, but very juicy.
330ml bottle. Hazy, bright orangey golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity, hoppy aroma, somehow disguised hints of mango and passion fruit, some grapefruit, a perfumy touch. Taste is slightly tart, bitter hoppy, tangy, unspecific citrusy fruity, grapefruit peel bitterness. Slightly unbalanced.
Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with a white head. Nice lacing. Aroma of peach, orange and rose petals. Flavour of floral hops, lemon iced tea, grapefruit and a dry, peppery finish. Medium body with a creamy texture. Soft fizz. I really enjoyed this.
Fonefan 251014. Golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is berries, floral, malt, hop, fruit, citrus, pine. Flavour is berries, floral, malt, hop, fruit, citrus, pine, passion fruit. Medium body. OK beer.
Nice aroma but I really did not like the taste of it. Good looks with larhe head but it does not deliver.
5.6% ABV. American Pale Ale.
It tapped out very nicely with a smooth creamy head, and a nice deep golden color.
Aroma. Hoppy with esters, ripe fruit and passion fruit.
Taste. Strong carbonation. Thick malty body. Bitter hops. You get some nice graham cracker, black bread flavors as well. Neatly balanced with the hops cutting the sweetness of these other flavors.
Aftertaste. Bitter hops. Lilies. Plenty of herbaceous and fresh botanical flavors. Very satisfying.
Mouthfeel. Soapy, but in a good way like a properly brewed ale should feel like more than just water in your mouth.
This was done as a blind tasting and I just kept coming back to this one which I liked very much. After it was unveiled, it just strengthened my already fanatical adoration of everything Mikkeller. Goes on my favorites list for sure.
A murky pale ale brewed with pineapple, this beer gives away lemony hops and spices on the nose; pineapple, lemon and pepper on the tongue. Very little bitterness until a little punch at the end with alcohol hidden nicely. Tart but thin.
Bottle. Hazy, orange, frothy, white foam, medium bitterness, light sweetness, medium body, thin feel, soft carbonation, & long finish.
Nice bottle from my future son in law, brought it back from Sweden. Finding this beer in the data base was like happy bullshit where’s waldo. How many one offs does mikeller sponsor? Anyway, a cloudy beer with initial a big head that fades quite rapidly to a pond scum. Taste is just a tad tart but its mostly medium hoppy american style pale ale. Yes, some fruit in there but just barely. Decent for a change but not sure if I’d pay any preemy for this stuff. Not impressed but glad to have had the chance to try it.
Jajamän, det här var gott. Det här känns som en lyckad ölserie med hög klass på samtliga. Smaken var fruktig med toner av grapefrukt och ananas, kroppen var okej och balansen närvarande. Som sagt, gott skit!
Not a huge aroma, yellow almost orange, hazy.
Tastes of fruit, passion and love.... Nice finish with fresh bitterness, balances the sweetness. Oily and average in carbon...
I like it
Výčap Richtár Jakub. Mútna zlatá farba, biela pena. Vôňa ovocná, chmeľová. V chuti jemná kyselkavosť na jazyku. Ovocné, jemne citrusové tóny, pikantnosť. V pozadí trávnatosť a ľahká horkosť. Nie dobré pre mňa.
Draught at Stone's. Very fruity (orange, kiwi, passionfruit, mandarin), pith, zesty, resinous grassy hop, faintly doughy/malty.
Tap at Richtar Jakub. Hazy yellow orange color with huge white head.
Fruity aroma with nice portion of hops. Fruity hoppy bitter taste with butterscotch and watery finish. Thin bodied beer.
Tap at RJ. Aroma flowery, fruity, lots of hops. Hazy golden colour. Taste is hop-centered, lots of bitterness but a bit too thin body, seems watery. Also slight lack of hops flavour, rather lots of bitterness. Citrusy, slightly tart, lemony, grassy. Interesting, but definitely not my favourite.
Bottle 330ml.

330ml bottle can’t remember where I got it. Rosey pale gold colour thin head. Fruity, citrus, and tropical fruit aroma, taste is sharpe grapefruit. Very refreshing.
33 cl. bottle poured in to a Tulip, label says 5.2 % alcohol. Hazy, golden-amber colour with a fat, white cap on top. Fruity aroma with citrus, grape, sweet, exotic fruits - passion fruits. Herbal notes and peaches. Taste is bitter. Medium body with a creamy texture and a soft carbonation. Finishes dry and fruity with citrus and passion fruit. Rather rich on the passion fruits. Nice APA.
Draught @ BBB. Pours hazy and milky deep yellow with a frothy white head that leaves some sparse thick trace and lacing on the glass while dissipating. Smell is fruity and grassy with crackers, grapefruit juice, mango, passion fruit, freshly cut grass, pine needles and lemon zest. Taste is tiny sour, bitter and fruity with crackers, grapefruit juice, mango, pineapple, passion fruit, freshly cut grass, pine needles, kumquats and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is dry, astringent and medium bodied. Finish is bitter with crackers, grapefruit juice, mango, pineapple, passion fruit, freshly cut grass, pine needles, kumquats and lemon zest. New batch? Tastes incredibly fresh and fruity! Damn good!
330ml bottle from Beer Cartel in Sydney. Label states ABV is now 5.2% for this latest release. Amber coloured pour with a medium-sized white head that provides a decent lace. Aroma and palate of malt grains, light passionfruit and pineapple plus some grassiness with a medium fruity hop bitterness to the finish. A pleasant straightforward easy drinking pale ale along the lines of Stone & Wood’s Pacific ale.
1/2 pint on tap @ One Pint Pub. Pours hazy yellow with a low head. Aroma is malts and plenty of sour fruit. Flavor is sour fruit, malts and hops. Not bad.

Bottled. Pours hazy, pale golden with an average white head. Aroma of citrus, peachy notes and caramel, can’t really sense the passion fruit. Sweet flavor that ends up dry and decent bitter. Light to medium bodied, watery to oily texture and average carbonation. A very nice IPA.
at the beer festival dijleschuimers in kessel lo together with Yves and benny hazy golden blond colored body with a white head and a fruity hop aroma a hops fruity sweet taste with a bitter finish
Bottle from mane liquor. Pours a orange with a small white cap. Nose is passion fruit driven. Very fresh! Taste is loads more passion fruit and citrus. Hint of pine and toast. Pretty decent stuff.
Une mousse duveteuse se dresse sur une robe orangée assez trouble. Lorsqu’elle se disperse, cette mousse trace une dentelle délicate sur les côtés du verre. Les houblons utilisés dégagent des flaveurs enivrantes d’ananas et de pêches, cette vague fruitée étant supportée par une présence céréalière discrète, mais juste assez présente pour apporter un petit mordant intéressant en bouche. L’amertume est très délicate et cette bière se boit à grandes lampées.
Flaska. Dimmigt orange med ett litet men konstant vitt skum. Dofter av citrus, passionsfrukt och örter. Fina och rena smaker av citronskal, passionsfrukt och gräs. Mjuk beska. Lätt fruktig sötma. Medelkropp.
