Bière bouteille bue au Tipografia à Brasov. Couleur blonde qui tire sur l'ambrée. Belle mousse blanche qui tient à 1 cm. Au nez, très agréable odeur houblonnée, typique des IPA. Carbonatation moyenne. Au goût, fruitée, bonne amertume mais un peu courte en bouche, manque un peu de complexité, reste basique dans ses saveurs.

33cl bottle from a friend of the brewer. Amber pour, hazy, with a white head. Smells like malt sugar, bitter hops and it has a metallic feeling. The taste is a bit oxidated, followed by some malt sugars and generic bitterness. Seems a bit stale (even though the bottle was fresh), but is quite drinkabe.

Shared BOTTLE 33 CL. Clear amber, almost no sediment, off white head. Sweet citrus and some caramel, bit sugary. Just hint of dank. Taste: hints of orange, citrusy hops, sugary caramel. Piney bitterness with a slight harsh edge.
Got better and cleaner since the last time. Still, bit too sugary. 6-4-7-3-13=3,3
------------------
BOTTLE 33 CL. Hazy red-brown, beige head. The aroma is mostly sweet - lollipop, toffee, creme brulee - with hops supporting the malts. The taste is also, not too heavy on hops, and the malts are light too, exposing the beer’s natural acidity a bit. The finish is nice smooth moderate bitterness. Cleanly fermented, no astringency. Not bad, but hops have to be pumped up a bit. 6-4-6-3-13=3,2.
