Bottle picked up from Kykao Brewery, Patras, Greece and consumed on Asterion II, Anek Lines RoRo ferry en route from Igoumenitsa, Greece to Venice, Italy Friday 18th September 2020. Cannot tell the colour as drinking from my kleankanteen. Nice bitterness, the hop combination works really well here, fruity, good bittersweet bite. Really good IPA.

5/7/2019. Bottle at VinoBeeroteca, Palaio Faliro, Athens. Pours slightly hazy golden amber with a small white head. Aroma of pine, hops, citrus, tropical fruits, flowers and grass. Medium sweetness and medium plus bitterness. Medium body, oily texture and very soft carbonation. A decent ipa with lovely bittersweet finish.

Bottle [from Euro Local Swap 2018-3 thanks to Rouhlas] @ home. A bit unclear yellow orange color, medium sized white head. Aroma and flavor both are decently malty, nicely hoppy, but carbonation is a bit high and lightly annoying. Overall good though.
