Barwa brzoskwiniowo pomarańczowa, silnie zmętniona. Piana biała, puszysta, średnioziarnista, wysoka, choć dość szybko się redukuje, niechlujnie oblepia ścianki szkła.
Gaia w aromacie przynosi tropikalną słodycz, delikatnie karmel i nuty żywiczne.
Smak jest bogatszy, w porównaniu z aromatem, jest zdecydowanie silniejszy, a oleista faktura piwa dodaje mu ciężkości. Podobnie jak wcześniej tak i tu jest mnóstwo owoców tropikalnych, do nich dołączają się cytrusy, nuty iglaste, żywica.
Kropkę nad i stawia żywiczno owocowa goryczka, sucha, długa a zarazem lekka, fantastycznie redukuje ciężar piwa i nadaje Gaii lekkości. Wysycenie średnie, jak najbardziej mi odpowiada.

Kolor herbaciany, klarowny. Piana barwy białej, wysoka o średnio długim czasie opadania. Drobne pęcherzyki nieznacznie osiadają na powierzchni szkła.
Aromat głównie karmelowy ze słodkimi, owocowymi nutami w tle.
Smak delikatnie kwaskowy z przyjemną, średnio wysoką goryczkową w kontrze.
Wysycenie wysokie, musujące. Tekstura gładka. Ciało średnie. Posmak długi kwaskowy, goryczkowy, "suchy".
