4.2 Another beautiful beer by Mikkeller. Excellent exemple of this type of beer. Subtle taste and long aftertaste. Very refreshing.

3.4 Draft at Taps Beer Bar, Changkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy light amber with some clingy lace. The aroma is dry yeast, light citrus, big floral hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a light zesty citrus yeast, floral peppermint hop bitter palate and a long lasting bitter finish that just goes on forever. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

3.7 Aroma: Tropical fruit, mango, oranges, light bread, light herbs. Appearance: Hazy golden colour, head is not too dense, medium-high, very durable. Taste: Tropical fruit, grapefruit, some caramel, resin, some herbs, quite high stingy grapefruity biterness but very short. Palate: Finish is dry, body is low, carbonation medium.

3.6 330ml bottle pours a slightly hazy golden orange color with a finger and a half of off-white head that leaves some decent lacing on the glass. Aroma is tropical fruits and grapefruit with some malty notes. Taste is a grapefruit bitterness with a tropical fruit and malty sweetness. Light bodied with good carbonation. Overall, a well crafted pale ale that suits the style well and is recommended to try.

3.4 Data ważności: 24.09.2016 Kolor: Ciemnożółty, nieprzejrzysty. Piana: Wysoka, biała, drobnoziarenkowa piana. Wybornie przykleja się do kieliszka i nie chce się wcale od niego odkleić. Powoli opada do okazałej oponki. Znaczy szkło w stopniu bardziej niż satysfakcjonującym. Po opróżnieniu szkła duża jej część ciągle w nim pozostaje. Super! Zapach: Fajnie zarysowana słodowa baza w postaci lekkiego karmelu, ciasteczek i odrobiny zboża. Na przeciwległym biegunie chmielowe akcenty. Głównie owoce cytrusowe - mandarynki, pomarańcze, liczi i pomelo. Na zapleczu mnóstwo żywicy i sosnowych igieł. Smak: W smaku bardzo dobre, konkretnie wytrawne, mocno nachmielone American Pale Ale. Chmiele nowej fali dają tutaj sugestywne cytrusowe nutki owoców pomarańczy, pomelo, ananasa, czy mandarynek. Raz po raz pojawia się trawiasty posmak w ustach, a za nim odrobina kwiatów. Żywiczne detale wibrują śmiało na języku prowadząc do konkretnego wytrawnego, cytrusowego finiszu. Na szarym końcu piramidy smakowej pojawia się trochę fenolowej pikantności. Goryczka długa, wyraźna, sugestywna. Posmak albedo pomarańczy jest nieodłącznym jej towarzyszem. Balans przesunięty wyraźnie w stronę chmielu. Sam aftertaste jest czysty. Ciało półpełne, faktura zawiesista, gęsta. Doskonale gasi pragnienie, na długo pozostaje w pamięci. Wysycenie: Średnie. Podsumowanie: Pierwszorzędne American Pale Ale. Skrojone na miarę i fantastycznie wpasowane w ramki stylu. Subtelna ciasteczkowa, słodowa podbudowy i tylko muśnięcia karmelu. W smaku została wyparta niemal całkowicie przez pokaźne nachmielenie. Średnie ciało, gęsta tekstura, konkretna chmielowa goryczka i odpowiedni balans. Świetny trunek.

3.3 Butelka z datą: 24.09.2016 AROMAT: Średnio intensywny. Dominują cytrusy (grejpfrut). W tle słody. WYGLĄD: Barwa złota, zmętnione. Piana średniej wysokości, krótka. SMAK: Wytrawne. Grejpfrutowe, nieco ściągające na języku i podniebieniu. Mocno nasycone, co w połączeniu z niezłą, choć krótką goryczką, daje efekt orzeźwienia. OGÓLNIE: Całkiem, całkiem.

3.2 W aromacie dzieje się niewiele, leciutki chmiel w stronę tropiku i słodowość. W smaku lepiej, pełno, fajna pszeniczna (?) słodowość, krótka, średnia goryczka. Bardzo pijalne. Szkoda, że nie świeższe, ale i tak jest ok.

3.4 Very good, lightly yellowish head over cloudy yellow beer. Milky, lactic nose followed by sweetish exotic fruithops. Later, however, the lactic touch turns towards spoiled milk. Bitterish-fruity. Again very (exotic)fruithops (mango, lychee, passion fruit, rosewater). Feels very carbonated, medium bodied @ best. Decent APA, nothing special.

3.4 Bottle @ the hotel. Straight forward hop dominated beer with notes of lychee and citrus. Bitter finish. A bit thin.

3.4 Bottle at michelberger hotel. Pours golden with a white head. Aroma is hoppy with citrus and exotic fruits. Taste is fresh with a bitter finish.

3.8 33cl bottle at home from Biernavigatie.nl. Nose is fruity, malty. Body is hazy orange, head is big, offwhite, frothy, mostly lasting, good lacing. Aroma is tropical fruits, honey, malt, weed. Medium sweet, light bitter, hint of citric sour. Finish is long lasting hoppy and malty medium bittersweet, developing hoppy bitter. Medium body, dry texture, lively carbonation. Easy, refreshing, simple, good one.

3.7 Aroma: Fruity hops and malt. Flavour: Fruity sweet with strong bitterness and citrus. Notes of grape. Finish is bitter. Colour: Amber with an offwhite head. From: Tap @ Mikkeller Bar Aarhus Jul. 2016.

3.6 Bottle. Sensoric. Golden, medium hazy with medium, white, semi-sensed head. Very good head retention and mediocre lacing. Nice medium tropical fruits aroma along with some citrus character. Taste is light to medium bitter, the bitterness quite quickly disappears. Light body, creamy texture, average carbonation, finish is lightly bitter and nicely refreshing. In general solid APA, but nothing outstanding.

3.9 Hazy ochre yellow, large dense rocky head sticking on glassware. Fresh fruity nose. Lemon, blossom, tropical fruit. Light to medium body. Dry flavour. Hoppy profile. Lots of citrus & tropical fruit, additional resin. Medium bitter. Being not a big fun of the gypsy empire I’ve got to admit this is a damn good thing again.

3.0 Smell of hops, mango, grain. Cloudy amber colour, high white head. Aroma of grain, hops, straw, bread. Lightly bitter. Flat carbon, slightly dry palate, light body. Good but very unsurprising.

3.2 33cl bottle from Beer52.com. A somewhat lively pour settling back to a hazy pale amber body with a loose white head; the aroma has some muted tropical fruit and lime; the taste is fuller with more tropical fruit; and a gentle bitter finish with traces of lime juice and zest. Overall a rather subdued APA.

3.8 Hazy amber, fairly large slightly off-white head that dissipates quickly. Lovely aroma of tropical fruit and citrus. Similar flavours, with a little malt, some pine, slightly earthy notes. Moderate sweetness is well balanced by a decent but not overwhelming hoppy bitter finish. Light to medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Really nice.
