On tap at Man in the Moon. A bit hazy golden/yellow with a white head. Aroma of hops, malt and grapefruit. Similar taste. The body was medium as was the bitterness. A decent one.

Keg at Monk’s American Bar, Stockholm. Clear golden rich head. Fruity apricot aroma. Very sweet with medium body and rounded, sticky mouthfeel. Syrup, canned apricots and sugary. Mid bitter finish. Messy.

Clear golden coloured body with a very thin, two centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of pure fresh hops with high alpha acids, some yeast, grain and a good deal of citrus - very, very nice. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong rich malt flavour with a lot of very fresh hops, some subdued caster sugar sweetness, with a lot of dry grain and malt notes with the pervasive hop bitterness - very nice. Aftertaste finishes with some super hop elements, a good deal of malt and grass and a very nice fresh pine and pineapple hop flavour that shows very well. Overall, a great beer - definitely nice to sample, especially here within the blandish lagers and typical beers of French Polynesia. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from the Kona Wine Market in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii [Island], Hawaii on 10-August-2016 for US$2,70 sampled in my hotel here south of the Equator on Mo’orea in French Polynesia on 17-August-2016.

tap - This brew smells of resinous hops with a touch of citrus. It has a pleasantly bitter, earthy and resin taste with some citrus and caramel. It’s fairly good and there’s something different about it. Besides the color... in this case, and I was assured that this isn’t the norm but it didn’t seem to hurt the flavor, the beer poured a completely opaque light tan color. The bartender said some beers do that near the very end of the keg. Odd that over the years I’ve not seen it before. Oh well.

Can at AA. Citrus nose, cat piss, pineapple, grapefruit. Hazy golden-orange with lace. dusty flavor, lots of something like chewing tobacco, weak malt, a bit oily. Weird. Flavor completely unexpected.

Hazy golden color. The nose shows lots of pineapples, very yeasty. The mouth is odd, green pepper and some other strange notes. A bit of lack of balance. Very odd. But not bad
