Bottle, gift from a friend. Aroma is piney hops with some bready malt, touch of orange and grapefruit, pine. Flavour is medium bitter with a moderate sweetness. Body is medium. Malty, bitter(sweetish) and piney. Nicely old school IPA-ish.

Bottle. Color: Hazy orange amber, off-white head. Aroma: Floral and citrus hop. Taste: Floral and piney hop, slightly resinous, citrus fruit (orange, hints of orange zest), malty backbone. Moderate sweet and over moderate bitterness, going to medium at the long lasting dry-ish finish. Medium body, just below average carbonation. Going towards old school British IPA style. Nice.

Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass with a nice head. Fresh hoppy aroma. Starts mild, malty-spicy. More and more fresh hoppy, mild sweetness. Mild bitter background. Finish well balanced. Quite drinkable. Not bad.

Bottle with many thanks to kappldav123! Cloudy brown colour, mid sized beige head. Hoppy nose. Malty, quite dry with low sweetness, resiny and very slightly fruity hops. Bitter hoppy punch in the finish.

Second Hensen bottle of the night. Big thank you to kappldav123. Murky flat copper in the glass, one finger foamy white head. Floral briish style IPA on the nose, malty background. Taste starts with an intensive hop bitterness, floral with citrus, malty backbone, more sweet than expected. Nice.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy dark orange/gold with a lovely white head. Aroma of citrus fruits (mostly oranges), pine and resin. Taste of those fruits mentioned above, honey and resin. Bold bitterness. Medium carbonation. Just ok but then again my bottle is probably too close to its expiration date.

Bottle picked up from Die Bierothek® München and consumed at home Attenkirchen, Saturday 14th March 2020, we moved here one year ago this weekend! (tomorrow to be exact) we're listening to Balthazar - Fever We're making Spice Marinated Beef Kebabs, Aubergine Rolls and I was going to make an Ice Cream but we'll have that tomorrow now. Copper in colour with a sticky white head. Toffee prominent, malty, sweet but not too sweet, soft carbonation, it's got a bitterness but it is not overly bitter. In terms of fruit it is mostly citrus. Good.

Tap at Frisches Bier. Cloudy Orange amber clouds, dolid golden foam. Grassy, citric, light lychee hop aromatics, a hint cheesecake, medium mellow dry body, light earthen herbal notes on a bready base, citrus peel finish. Hop bitterness stays on the palate.
