Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Grassy aroma with soft fruity hops, malt, floral notes, some grapefruit and citrus. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a mild bitterness. Body is medium. Drinks more like a mild APA or hoppy Golden than an IPA, it's a bit mild overall.

Clear gold to orange beer, big creamy bit irregular white head, unstable, falls down quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: oh my, super fruity, lots and lots of citrus, pineapples, passion fruit, herbal, celery, a little piny, dank, very intense, love it! MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: good bitterness up front, zesty, grapefruit, grassy hops, a little sourish, some lemon zest, herbal, a bit piny, tropical fruits. Aftertaste: resinous hops, piny, pretty dank finish, cheesy touch, very fruity still, lots of grapefruit, lovely session IPA!

On tap at the Lighthouse Tavern. Pours a clear gold with a white head that lasts throughout the beer and laces. Aroma has bright grass and slightly bitter citrus with light grains backing. Flavor has a nice citrus with growing grass and a bit of grain coming through in the finish.
