3.4 Sampled from tap at BPBW 2018. Sweetish, fruity-resiny aroma of mango and pine. Moderately sweet, malty, moderately fruity and slightly resiny taste of mango, pine and passion fruit, followed by a short, moderately bitter, quite resiny and slightly grassy finish. Medium body, slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!

4.1 Első keményebb IPA élményeim egyike. Nagyon meghatározó volt az ízlésem kialakulásában. Az újítás és a hidegkomlózás jót tett neki, de sose feledem az eredetit. A színe se volt olyan szép mint az újnak.

3.8 On tap at Bastion. Firm creamy white head, clear amber colour, citrusy aroma. Bitter, rich taste, low carbonation, IPA as it is supposed to be. Long bitter finish. Very good.

3.4 This beer is sufficient because there is citrus’s taste so me isn’t very good!!

2.9 0,1l from bottle at Spirits&Friends, Vienna. Amber hazy colour, small white head. smells rather of stale hops, musty, lightly resiny, quite muted smell. Medium to Full Body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes herbal, chlorophyl, bit leathery, yeasty, peppery. finishes light to medium bitter with notes of grass and herbal notes. rather unbalanced.

3.3 Medium dark amber, opaque, strong white head. Strong galaxy hop aroma. Nice bitter taste with strong hoppy notes,

3.0 Tasting Session at Élesztő Starts with an unpleasant, sulfurish smell, backed by malty notes. Flavour is burned sugar with tangy and bitter Galaxy hops. Amber body, usual IPA mouthfeel. As if the otherwise fine taste would miss a considerable share of its aroma.

3.8 Bottled. Traditional solid IPA from Hungary. Galaxy paradise with a great body. Moderate bitter aftertaste.

3.4 Stable IPA. Strong fruity aroma, more lasting dry bitterness in mouthfeel. Always good to have around.

3.2 Bottle, friends gift from 100 piv Bratislava. Pours deep golden, slightly clear with tan white/off-white head. Aroma: moderate hop aroma with citrusy, spicy notes, supported with malt aroma, which takes on biscuit, toffee. Flavor: intense malt backbone with notes of biscuit, toffee, even caramel ( which I see as unproper for a style and way too sweet) supported with moderate hop notes, with notes mentioned above. Finish is slightly bitter. Body is medium, texture soft, carbonation is medium.

4.0 Borostyán szín, fehér hab. Keserű íz, citrusos-mangós mellékzöngékkel. Jó kis sör.

3.9 Kolor bursztynowy, piana dość obfita ładna gęsta i drobna. Świetny lejsing i dobrze się piana utrzymuje. Wygląd wzorowy. aromat słodkich owoców głownie, chmielowy. goryczka raczej średnia, ale wyraźnie zaznaczona. Wyraźna słodowość, bardzo pijalne z każdym łykiem goryczka coraz bardziej pozostaje w ustach. Dla mnie mogłoby być trochę bardziej wytrawne, ale poza tym to bardzo dobra ipa.
