Canned (from Alko). Hazy golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is tropical fruits, citrus and some slight nectary tones. Flavour pretty much has the same elements as the aroma, but also has a slight sweetness to it. Refreshing!

How stupid ass can you get, having the customer try to figure out what studid ass fricken hops are in this. There has got to be 15 different orbital tilts in the data base and they are all made by Lawrence, WTF! I'll guess citra by golly. Smells a little piney. Taste is big bad bitter. Its just another stupid ass straight up IPA like all the other gazillion out there. Taste one CL orbital tilt, you had em all, there, you have it. Very disappointing. Beer tasting, its really getting boring lately. IPA, the new mass produced style. Gimmy a good old lager p-lease to rinse my mouth out. Slight warming sensations on the finish.

(Can, 0.355 l - canned on 11.10.2019, from Alko, 20200221)The beer poured yellow and cloudy. Its head was large, white and it lasted long. Aroma had tangerine, grapefruit and menthol. Palate was medium bodied with rather high carbonation. Flavours were grapefruit, grass, tangerine, resin and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A surprisingly pleasant hoppy brew with dry bitter finish.

Can 355ml (Alko web, BB 10/2020)
Murky orange colour, nice firm white head and lace. Aroma is at first very peachy, then watermelon and citrus with cut grass. Medium-bodied, a bit too much carbonation. Quite bitter and lemony almost to sticky level. Then pine and resin ride in. Ok hoppy brew but for being Citra it is quite sharp bitter, maybe yeast has done some tricks here.

Crisp amber and copper coloured body with a very dense, three to four centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of grass, flowers and a lot of the very pungent, bitter hops that show citrus fruits and a lot of perfumey characteristics. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and floral bite from the hops with a lot of citrus and grainy flavours show through with some good malt support and a dash of yeast and light funk that couples well with all the bitterness provided from the hops. Aftertaste shows some of the drying, herbal components, but this really is about the deep bitterness from the hops and a dash of the floral and grassy notes. Overall, a nice and pungent IPA (mine wasn't hazy, nor would I perceive this as a New England IPA at all) with a lot of flavours and robust quality that shows exceptionally well, especially for a lower alcohol IPA. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Wine in Springfield, Virginia on 20-October-2019 for US$2,29 sampled in my hotel room in Richmond, Virginia on 25-October-2019, just five days later.
