In many sports the FREERIDE represents pure fun, a sense of freedom, spiritual communion with nature and open spaces: in a word, unconditional joy. Hops are the absolute protagonists of this beer, which is our recurring dream, addiction and care. Our lust for hops will find redemption from the worries whenever we can bring our lips closer to this beer. Pale orange colour, citrus and floral scents very eye-catching. Hops are the absolute protagonist of this beer, which has aromas of mango, tropical fruit, grapefruit, bitter orange and has balsamic nuances.

Old rating from 27-09-16 - On tap at the Beer Club House in Florence. Pours a hazy golden colour with a small white foam head. Aromas of citrus & hops. Tastes of citrus, grapefruit and hints of tangerines leading to a fruity mildly bitter hopped finish.

Bottiglia. Al naso l'aroma rimanda al luppolo. La finezza olfattiva è elevata e il modo in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. Il liquido si presenta velato. Il colore è giallo dorato carico. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, arancia e mandarino.

Aroma of Brett infection, soapy notes. Flavour is Brett with a moderate bitterness in the aftertaste. It’s really too bad. Hope to find a non-infected bottle and do a re-rate one day.

Pours a moderately hazy pale golden, average sized white head, good enough retention and nice lacing. Quite good intensity in the aroma: citric fruitiness upfront (lemon/lime, tangerine, maybe a hint of grapefruit), moderate piney background, perhaps a lightly perceptible crackery malts base. Simple and reasonably fresh. Taste notes follow the aroma, quite good intensity, so/so definition. Medium sweetness and medium bitterness; balanced, semi-neutral mouth, a slightly unpleasant sweetish reminiscence in the aftertaste. Light to medium body, average, slightly coarse carbonation (kinda macro lager like). Overall: a very basic ipa, and not so good at that, mediocre but still acceptable.

Bottle from Westhill Service Station. It pours clear yellow with medium fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh , bright, green, pine needles, sappy, biscuit, bread, pavlova, peach, mango, apricot, orange squash and orange blossom. The taste is crisp, dry, firmly bitter, snappy, pithy, zesty, tangerine, kumquat, grapefruit, pine needles, grassy and minerality with a drying finish. Average carbonation and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Feels really fresh. Has nice subtle nuances to it. Really enjoyed it.

Lekka brzoskwinia, tropiki, ziołowe, lekka siarka. Barwa złota, opalizujące, piany i lacingu brak. Goryczka zaznaczona, dość tępa, łodygowa. Mało tu west coasta. Nie jest złe ale brakuje mu czegoś.
