Draught @ Hatten. We dont usually get beers this fresh and intensly hopped in Sweden. This was chewing on a hop cone! Heavy notes of fruits. Also notes of grain and icecream. Fun but a bit overhopped.

Draught @ All In Beer Fest 2015. Pours very hazy pale burnt yellow with a big frothy white head that leaves some sticky lacing on the glass while dissipating. Smell is heavy fruity and grassy with crackers, grapefruit juice, heavy mango, freshly cut grass, pine needles and lemon zest. Taste is slightly bitter, heavy fruity and grassy. Mouthfeel is soft, slightly dry, slightly astringent and medium bodied. Finish is bitter with crackers, white bread, grapefruit juice, mango, papaya, freshly cut grass, pine needles and lemon zest. Simple mango-forward slightly dry and extremely quaffable APA. Damn good! --- Beer merged from original tick of Ben Simcoe Single Hop Pale on 07 Nov 2015 at 18:17 - Score: 9.

On tap at Omnipollos Hatt. Hazy golden with a white head. Fresh aroma of mango, citrus, lychee and some light hay. Similar taste. Kind of soft and nicely refreshing. Tasty.

Draught. Hazy golden liquid with medium off-white head. Aroma of mango, citrus, pineapple, lychee, lemon peel, light grain and passion fruit. Taste is dry and light to medium bitter with notes of mango, pineapple, lychee and citrus. Light to medium bodied with soft medium carbonation. Really fruity, juicy and drinkable. Right up my alley. Omnipollo bringing their A game. Had it something like 15 times by now. This is fantastic. New batch is a bit cleaner and more focused. Incredibly drinkable. Upping the score from 4.1 to 4.3.

Keg at Omnipollos Hatt, Stockholm. Cloudy pale golden, rich creamy head. Perfumy tangerine aroma. Mid dry with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Lightly fruity and bready, but tangerines and lychee dominate completely. A well balanced hop feast with long bitter finish. Uncomplicated but really tasty.
