Bottle from Yeme. Good IPA for winter days. Rather sticky texture, strong presence of hops. Medium bitter and lightly sweet. May feel bit heavy but it's winter after all.

330 mml bottle as part of the European Local Swap 1/2017. Many thanks to Gurthnar for this bottle. Firs of all, I must say that my review is not good because of the carbonation (maybe the trip from Slovakia to Spain didn´t help). Extremely large fizzy white head. Aroma of grains, hops and yeast. Taste is yeasty with a citrusy dry finish. Next one please!

On tap at the brew pub/brewery. Golden coloured, small white to off-white head, citrusy hoppy nose. Moderate malty, decent citrusy hoppy, mild caramel and notes of oranges with rather bitter finish. Really pleasant surprise.

Bottle, 6.0%. Cat urine hop aroma with a little pine. Cloudy grey amber colour. Big stable creamy white head. The flavour is quite malty with a teaish hoppiness and a decent bready finish. Teaish hop aftertaste. Good body, and a quite flavourful beer, so it makes sense to drink it in winter.

Bottle from the brewpub. Pours hazy pale straw with stable off-white head. Clear aroma of yeast, with notes of citrus and hops. Bitter, hoppy flavour with notes of malt and yeast and grassy touches. Lingering, bitter and estery aftertaste. Quite nice.
