A murky amber body reminiscent of apple cider topped by a well laced white head. The taste profile leads with citrus hop elements - grapefruit, orange and lemon. Mild bitterness but fresh. Some spice, grain and honey add to mix.

Nice citrus notes, earthy hops, fresh cut grass. Solid biscuity malts, cereals, and grains. The balance is quite impressive. Medium bitterness, citrus grassy finish.

Can from Lekkerbier, Sint Nicolaasga. Aroma is grapefruit, fruity hop, pine resin, citrus, malt, orange. Flavour is medium bitter and light sweet. Body is medium. What a pleasant time capsule to the kind of classic IPA that bewitched me so way back in the day.

Pint at beerbistro Toronto pours a lightly hazy gold with plenty of lacey white head. Nose has plenty of soap and grass, some citrus and a little crackery malt. Flavor is a little bit of orange soda, muddled citrus, simple malt, plenty of soap and herbs. Bitter finish but a bit over fruited.

Dark yellow colour with fluffy head. Very citrusy, even a slight lemony sharpness. Background piney notes.

Poured from the tap. Hazy gold with small white head. Pine and citrus hops, balanced chewy malt backing. All around very good and balanced.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy gold-orange with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, caramel, grapefruit, lemon peel, peach, floral and piney hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, caramel, grapefruit, orange peel, peach, floral and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with a watery to oily texture and soft carbonation. Decent.

473ml can. Smooth, sweetish and caramely malty with some grassy hops, pine, citrus and hints of grapefruit. Decent, quite generic.
