Half IPA! Light-bodied gluten free ale but ‘enhanced’ with generous amounts of hops. Citrus and floral long flavor. It is our tribute to the Ska-Reggae-Soul band from Barcelona after more than 25 years making people dance.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks troubles. Golden. Hoppy aroma of overripe fruits, a bit of graininess. Dry flavor with a bit of graininess, and bitterish fruity hops. Light-bodied. Refreshing.

Bottle from Drank van de Meisjes, small sample. Slight hazy golden color, short frothy head. Some caramel in aroma, slight yeasty, bit grapefruit and citrussy hop. Soft to medium bitterness, some caramel and toffee, slight yeasty notes. Feels like a decent homebrew.

Ambar, nebulosa, espuma blanca, buen aspecto. Aroma a lúpulo herbal y resinoso, pino. Acentúa en boca, claramente lupulada, pero de rica base acaramelada. Cuerpo moderado y perfecta de gas. El sabor adquiere tonos frutales, menos herbal que en el aroma. Estupenda APA.

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Thompson, Niilstrong and Bobson. Clear yellow orange color, medium sized off-white head. Aroma is malts, a lot of grassy hops and lightly a hint of resin. Taste malts, hops, grassy hops, lightly resin, fruity and perfectly bitter. Oh yes, I love this, would love to know which hops were used in this beer.

Pours golden with a frothy white head, nice carbonation. Aroma of citrus, malt, sweet, citrus, exotic fruit. Taste medium sweetness, weak bitterness, thin mouthfeel, malts, yeast, light pine, citrus, in mather of fact it's a more balanced version of the amarillo ipa, this one tasted better. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a lazing yellowish head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and straw, leading to a bitter finish.
