(Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm, 16 May 2022) Golden amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, malty nose with dried fruit, peaches, black-currant, herbal hops and hints of gummy bears. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of dried fruit, peaches, black-currant and a generous herbal bitterness. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well made DIPA. Very nice.

16 oz. can. Appearance is extremely gross. Lots of yeast particulate and turb. Hey brewer, can the turb be left in the whirlpool rather than staying in contact with the fermenting wort?? Jeez, if I don’t look at it actually taste OK. Citrus, grass, and mild florals. Good balance. Just wish I didn’t have to look at it while I drink it. -sigh-

Can at home. A bit hazy orange color, medium sized quickly diminishing white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, hops, sweetish hops, yet also some hop burn. Dec body and med carbo. Ok but not my kind of DIPA. Great label / sticker on the can though btw. 7-3-7-3-14.

Can. Hazy gold beer, tiny pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light creamy sweetness from the malts. Nice light cooling piney hops. Smooth and slightly ripe mango led tropical fruits. Nibbly hop spice. Modest citric hops. Light crisp finish. Lovely. Smooth, piney and with a decent spicy bite. Excellent stuff.

I Draught /I Light yellowish head, leaving lace over fully hazy orange-ochre beer. Very dry hops, hopbales, citrussy lupulin overload. Sweet-bitterish, orangepeel, grapefruit, bananapeel. Slightly cheesy, asafoetida. Feels pretty carbonated, hopoilslick, at least medium bodied. Better than average DIPA.

Can sourced from Beerdome and shared at home - pours hazy orange with a white head. Sweet fruity with some nectarine and grapefruit, light peachy accents, pine needles, sweet caramel malty backbone, piny resinous bitter hoppy finish.

473ml can. Cloudy, orangey golden colour with average to huge, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy and minimally piney, hoppy aroma, sugary, caramel malty background, notes of lemon, orange, grapefruit, a tropical fruity touch of passion fruit and mango, some apricot and peach. Taste is sweet-ish, sugary, caramel malty, citrusy hoppy and minimally alcoholic, notes of orange, lemon, grapefruit, a touch of passion fruit and mango, peach and apricot. Fruity, but not that juicy as a typical NEIPA, rather sugary sweet than dry, oaty and wheaty; kind of West Coast and New England (D)IPA hybrid.
