From tap at Planet Oedipus ’17. Aroma is herbal hops, caramel malt, herbal tea, soft fruity notes. Flavour is mild sweet with a bitter finish. Body is medium. Agreeable IPA with a strong herbal tea character, hardly smashing but I liked it.

MBCC 2018. Green. 'Free sauna with your ticket'. Keg. Almost clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Dry malts, modest sweetness. Dry floralness. Dry orange peel. Dry bitterish finish. It's not awful but the dryness makes it harder work than it should be.

Keg at MBCC 2018 Green (session IV), 12/05/18. Golden orange with a decent off white covering. Nose is bread dough, citric tinged straw, orange peel, light floral notes. Taste comprises more breads, hint of grapefruit, orange, melon, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced moderate hop bitterness. A pretty pedestrian mom and pop brewpub kind of IPA.

Draught at MBCC green (fourth) session. Clear amber-gold body, filmy layer, spotty lacing. Inviting aromas of herbal hops and grainy malts. Tropical fruity flavours on a backbone of earthy malts. Hints of piney bitterness to the ending. Fine bodied. Standard, well made IPA. Like it. (Copenhagen 12.05.2018).

Tap at Young Master beer festival in HK 5-2018. Clear amber copper pour with minimal head. Aroma is cereal malt and overripe fruit (but might be due to multiple fruitier beers having been in the glass previously). Biscuity malt taste with mild bitterness. So so.
