Bottle from Galleria Kaufhof, Munich. Golden, slightly amber, clear body, with medium, frothy, white head, that leaves a fair lacing. Aroma of flowers, grass, honey, malt, slight tropical fruit notes. Taste is medium bitter, slightly dry, with grass, honey, biscuit, some citrus and only subtle fruit notes. Mouthfeel is medium to thin, with a good carbonation and finishes bitter and dry. Not bad, refreshing, but pretty one-dimensional and less fruity than promised on the bottle.

Klar brun med høyt hvitt skum. Aroma av malt, humle, sitrus. God fylde og ganske lettdrikkelig. Mere humlepreg i smak enn i lukt. Godt karbonert og noe bitter ettersmak.Frisk...

At a tasting, many thanks Tom, smallish head, a bit hazy and a touch pale orange colour, aroma of pomello, grapefruit peel, and some maltiness in the back, flavour of biscuit with pomello and grapefruit and a pleasant citrusy bitterness and sourness. Quite nice and highly drinkable

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks Tom L. Clear amber. Great hoppy aroma full of overripe tropical fruits and light earthy hints. Flavor has light sweetness, some malt, a caramel hint, lots of fruity hops flavor and some bitterness in the finish. Medium-bodied. Very nice.

It says "Powerfully Hopped" and that’s true. Fresh, aroma with citrus and tropical fruits. Fruity in the flavour too giving a pleasant juicy, sweet taste with a good hit of fresh green hop. It’s not overpowering though.

Nose is mango, some citrus. Taste is lightly hoppy, lemon balm slight mango, grassy, slightly bitter finish. Mouthfeel is appropriate. It’s drinkable, but not hoppy enough for an American style IPA but slightly to hoppy for an old school English IPA.
