3.6 Rating #2735 2017.12.05 - Beer #5 in the 2017 Craft BeerAdvent Calendar. Pours a hazy yellow with a decent frothy white head, lots of lacing. Aromas of belgian yeast, tropical fruits (papaya, pineapple), and some candy sugar. Lots of tropical sweet flavours up front, with a dry, delicate earthy bitterness to balance it out. Medium body, moderate carbonation, this beer is pretty tasty.

3.1 Craft Beer Advent Calendar 2017 Cloudy blond color. Nice aroma, strong character, resiny hops, spices. The mouthfeel is dry, high carbonation, strong spices, astringent final, a bit too unbalanced, too strong yeast.

2.8 330ml bottle @ Matt's. Pours a hazy golden colour with a small white head. Nose is bready with fragrant floral hop note. Flavour is essentially just raw bitterness with a trailing biscuity malt. Not for my liking, but nothing off.

3.5 Bottle - Grapefruit and Mandarin. Cloudy gold with a nice white head. Grapefruit with some peel and a very dry finish.

3.2 Slightly hazy, light amber. No head. There's a fair bit of papaya, fruity hop, though it is a bit on the stale side. The balance is nice; there's some good fruity character. A bit stale, but you can see there's a decent IPA here.

3.4 330mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma is fairly harsh on the hops, with light citrus and biscuity malt. Flavour is quite bitter, with lots of citrus hops, bitter pine, and biscuity malt. Thick, frothy palate. Good stuff.

2.6 Pours golden with an active, frothy head. Aroma is surprisingly boozy, with some grapefruit from the hops. Long, moderately bitter finish. IPA's are not my thing at all, but those one tastes like it was well-crafted at least, even if I didn't like it.

3.6 330ml bottle. As Alien Klaw. Pours a hazy orange-yellow with a large, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves plenty of lace. Sweet fruity aroma of pale malt, orange, tangerine, pineapple, papaya, passion fruit, floral and Belgian yeast. Sweet fruity flavour of orange, tangerine, peach, mango, melon, caramel malt, floral and Belgian yeast with a dry, bitter, pine resin finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Nice stuff.

3.8 Light cloudy golden color, white head. Heavy fruity nose, passion fruit, mango, melon, peach, floral notes. Fruity esters taste, peach, floral, grass, citrus, grapefruit, resin, moderate bitterness. Medium body, soft carbonation. 8, 3, 8, 4, 15

3.5 Bottle from World Beer Market (Sake no Taniguchi). Lightly funky nose of rich fruit, yeast, citrus zest -- all quite earthy and a bit floral, too. Cloudy light gold color with a creamy white head. Light tropical fruit flavors, fairly intense bitterness, grapefruit sourness, and some yeast. Medium body, with a slight hop burn. Interesting stuff. Kind of muddled, actually, but overall it has a tasty combination of Belgian yeastiness and a heavy load of hops.

4.0 Guldgul, disig med stort vitt skum. I doften finns jäst, örter, kryddor och citron. Smaken är kryddig och örtig med citronskal och mot slutet det vita på grapefrukten. En mycket bra blandning av IPA och belgisk blond, välbalanserad och smakrik; en av de mer lyckade hybriderna jag testat.
