2.7Tap @ Ølhus København, Helsinki. Pours yellow with a decent, white head. Aroma is light and soft, some lime, some lemon. Taste is somewhat citrusy, more lemony. Light, grainy. Not very IPA-like this.
3.0500 ml bottle @ Nordic
Hazy orange beer with white head. Aroma has yeast, hay and dried fruits. Flavor has sweet fruits and apricot. Medium full palate with medium carbonation.Finish has quite strong bitterness. Aftertaste has dry apricot. Disappointing, but sadly the BBE date had gone past by a month.
3.5Bottle at local restaurant. Limited taste and aroma for an IPA. More of an old style IPA with European hops.
3.1Tap at Kitty’s, Helsinki. Colour is slightly cloudy orange with small white head. Aromas and flavors: Fruits, some citrus, hops and malts. Nothing special.
2.9Draught at the Kitty's, Helsinki, Finland.
Slightly cloudy amber colour with a small white head.
Yeast, wheat(?), bready malt and mild bitterness in the aroma. Bad.
The flavour is yeast, bitterness, fruits and malt. This ain't that great.
3.5Nice and tasty IPA, but unfortunately it doesn’t feel hoppy enough for me. A good beer after all.
3.3Bottle@ølhus oslo. Orange hazy. Green, herbal, earty (mossy) hoppy nose, murky caramels below that, english citrus. Med bodied, round, dry. Caramels, light breadyness. Herby hops. Ok old world- like ipa. Tasty if you like english hops.

3.3Backlog. Tried on tap and bottled a number of times. If you’re into the more english-style IPAs you should try this.
3.1500ml bottle. Golden body with a big white head, that leaves loads of lacing. Malty with hints of citrus, cloves (?), yeast, grass and british hops. Medium carbonation.
3.1Flaska @ Printz. Doft av bröd, säd och citrus. Lite maltsötma matchas av neutral beska. Lite tråkigare än jag minns.
3.1Inte min favorit direkt. Underlig aroma tyckte jag. Lite lätt i kroppen också kanske.

3.1Bottle - 500ml. Hazy golden body with a good white frothy/creamy head. Well balanced hoppy aroma with malty and flowery hints. Its malty/hoppy taste carries citrusy and grainy hints. Ends with a decent bitter finish. Interesting.
3.4Det här var en bra ipa, för att vara en brittisk inspirerad ipa är den riktigt bra. Ölen innehar en fin och bastant beska med en tillhörande tillfredställande kropp. Smaken är behaglig med inslag av frukt och gräs.

3.3Draught @ Konttori
Aroma has hay, caramel, some peaches and resin. Also a feeling of bun dough. Flavour is somewhat hoppy with vanilla, caramel, some hay, yeasty notes, resin, pine needles and nettles. Finishes with metallic and distant woody notes. Too sweet and stuffy.
3.1Draught @ Konttori, Tampere. Pours a copper colour with a strong chunky lacy head. Aroma of English toffee, herbs and hay. Flavour of sweet caramel malts, berries, grassy hops, some metallic notes, weak vegetable notes and strong hay. Medium bodied and oily mouthfeel. Lingering bitter, sweet and grassy finish. Not my kind of an IPA, and in addition to that this has some off-flavours.
3.6Draught @ Oluthuone Leskinen, Oulu. Coppery golden beer with a small white head. Aroma has caramel malts, toffee and aromatic hoppiness. Flavour has light to medium maltiness and quite strong dry bitterness which is a bit too stingy. Medium- body. Nice but more malts and body would make this a bit better.
3.3Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Sweet malt, fruit, caramel aroma. Flavour of hops, caramel.
3.4Shared bottle at Cardinal. Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of flowery hops,red ripe fruit. Taste is moderate bitter, grapefruit some toffee malt and some spices. Crisp finish with a lingering bitterness.
3.6Aroma: The smell is mostly citric fruits and flowers, a bit of dried grass and a malty sweetness, but also some bananas and spices.
Appearance: A deep gold beer with a off-white head leaving some lacing.
Taste: Tasting mostly of bitter notes from the hops, but also some raisin-like sweetness. A belgian yeast vibe from this keg.
Palate: Medium carbonation, a soft texture. A medium body with a somewhat dry finish.
Overall: A very nice sipping beer full of nice floral and fruity smells.
Note: On-tap at a De Klomp tasting. Reviewed 2013-01-19.
2.1Ar: Grass, straw, hay, yeast, almost Belgian in style, spices, no obvious hoppiness, this is all wrong for an IPA
Ap: amber colour, creamy White head, lots of lacing.
F: low skunky bitterness, metallic, weird yeastiness, herbs, hay, spices, this tastes all wrong, I can’t believe that a quality brewery like Nynäshamn meant for it to taste like this. Warming finish.
M: average.
T: I don’t think this beer is right.
3.0Bottle at bar. Amber color, white head. Bitter taste with citrus, grass, caramel and hops. Dry bitter finish. Ok brew, not really IPA.
2.2Smells really not a lot, does not taste so much. The aftertaste was not so much. The aftertaste tasted sausage sadly. Still disappointed by this brewery.
