Bottle 33cl. Cloudy yellow with a small white head. Yeasty aroma and mandarine. Some exotic taste, mango and mandarine with a firm bitter finish.
Bottle. Cloudy golden with white head. Full aroma of hopps with citrus and grapefruit with a hint of malt. Same template at the mouth with massive hoppy bitternes lasting in the aftertaste.
Med en IBU på 95 så er der virkelig smæk for alle pengene på humlen. En fin humlet sag med masser er smag.
12oz bottle on 30th June 2017 at The Crown Inn, Oakengates. Slightn haze to the golden pour, white topping. Citrus fruit esters rule the aroma, orange being the main player. Taste wise, again orange flavours bossed the citrus stakes from the hops. Liked it.
murky deep gold with a medium white head. Tropical floral and citrus aroma. Thick and oily on the lips. Bright citrusy taste then big good hop bitter kicks in and follows all the way through the finish. A very solid IPA!
Lovely grapefruit, some lemon, some grass,. Light tartness with moderate lasting bitterness all the way. Decent, but bit boring
Light amber with almost no head. Sweet fruity aroma with bitter notes. Good hops bitterness with fruity sweet-sour background. Lasting bitter aftertaste.
Aromat: mocny i świeży aromat cytrusów, słodkich owoców tropikalnych i żywic.
Wygląd: jasnobursztynowe, dosyć przejrzyste, warstw białej piany, ładnej, dosyć szybko opadającej.
Smak: lekka owocowa słodycz kontrowana potężną goryczką. W smaku pomarańcze, grejpfruty, mango, marakuja, ananas. Baza słodowa lekka, bardzo świeża, przyjemna, żadnych karmelowych lub landrynkowych nut.Goryczka silna, żywiczna i grejpfrutowa, zalegająca, ale bez nieprzyjemnych odczuć. Lekkie ale nie wodniste, bardzo orzeźwiające i pijalne, a przede wszystkim bardzo smaczne. Lubię właśnie takie IPA. I czuć to IBU
12oz bottle cloudy gold pour with white head aroma is resin, floral and citrus zest taste is light sweet and sour with a heavy bitter finish
@ Saga Hotel, Copenhagen 20170512. Bottle from Kihoskh. Fruity and hoppy, sweet, citrusy, bitter finish.
Pours cloudy golden with low white head. Aroma of citrus, tropical fruit. Taste is sweet fruit, lactose, mild bitterness in the finish. Light and smooth body with soft carbonation.
Chuck’s 85th, Seattle. Soft white cap, mostly clear pale gold. Smooth, rich sip. Lots of onion, super ripe fruit with a strong bitter finish. Strawberry, sorta, with plenty of grassy hops. Biscuit malt base. This grows incredibly bitter and features just a massive depth of hop. Reminds me of the ultra high IBU trend of years past. Plenty of flavor, and this isn’t bad, but the alpha hop explosion is taking even me back. Round, juicy body underneath that flavor at end. Nice.
33 cl bottle. Pours hazy yellow, huge and white head. Aroma is mild peachy, slight grapefruity hoppy. Bitter, slight herbal. Mild citrusy fruity. Dry and bitter. Lingering toasted malt and bitter far finish.

Bottle. Golden pour. Aroma of mild grassy pine, citrus and biscuity malt. Taste of citrus, bitter grassy pine, herbs, biscuity crispy malt and a dry bitter finish. Solid ipa.
Pale blond with light haze. Aroma and flavour have plenty of citrus, pineapple and resinous hop. Nice, full bodied feel. Fine but prickly carbonation.
Bottle from tavour. Pours a golden color: quite a lot of resin flavors with some sugary lemon taste. Nice malt base in this. Not bad.
On tap @ Queen’s Head Stockholm. Hazy yellow with a creamy head. This is fully packed with elegant citrusy and resinous hops. Great! Also, it’s a dry mouthfeel with low maltiness. This is one for the hop heads.
Hazy, pale yellow colour and a small, creamy, white head. Aroma is light hops, some grapefruit. Taste is hoppy and the hops get even more intense towards the end. Not super bitter but quite dry. Medium body, smooth mouthfeel, easy on the carbonation. Overall it’s alright but the taste is pretty much only hops which I’m not too fond of.
Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity grassy citrus hoppy aroma. Fruity malty grassy citrus hoppy flavor. Has a fruity malty grassy citrus hoppy bitter finish.
Bottle@home. Medium, slightly bitter aroma with citrus and light mango. Lighter yellow color with small white head and hazy liquid. Medium, averagely balanced taste with citrus-like fruits and some hops. A hint of malts. Narrow/medium taste spectrum and medium aftertaste with hoppy malts. Light/medium body and medium carbonation. Overall, simple and bit rough, though refreshing.

Tap @ Fairbar. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste grass, straw, fruits, malt and hops. Nice bitter finish.
33cl bottle from Alko, Helsinki. Pours hazy golden with a white head. Rather intense hoppy, dominated by pine, grassy and herbal hops, some fruity notes too and hints of malt. Moderate to medium sweet with medium flavour intensity and a fairly strong bitterness in the finish. Herbal and quite refreshing, but not too easy to drink, but certainly decent.
pale orange with a resiny hop aroma with caramel malt in the background. A little tropical fruit and citrus peel in the flavor as well
