Cask @ BBF 2010. Tapped through heaps of hops (hoppinator), giving the beer a huge but adorable leafy citric hoparoma. Medium bodied. Malty. Leafy very fresh herbal and citric hops in the flavor, lingering on in the long aftertaste. The "hoppination" brings a world of goodness to this beer. without a Hoppinator...... Keg @ 2nd BBF. Orange color, hazy. Peach and confit fruit in the aroma. Strong cellar flavor, earthy with lots of hops. Totally unbalanced, alas...

Draught @ Örebro Ölcafé. Pours clear copper gold with a frothy offwhite head that leaves some spotty trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is malty, tiny fruity and slightly grassy with caramel, toffee, grapefruit juice, moist grass, pine needles, moist soil and lemon zest. Taste is very tiny sweet, bitter, tiny fruity and grassy. Mouthfeel is tiny watery, slightly astringent and light bodied. Finish is bitter with caramel, grapefruit, grass, pine, soil and lemon zest. But muted and doesn’t really pop. Solid I guess but I like my APA more aroma focused and with paler malts.

Draught @ Ølhus København. Aroma has strawberries, some sweetish malt and raspberries. Vomit-like(!) Foamy palate. Flavour is Orval-like with earthy tones, some grapefruit, hints of toffee, caramel and minerals. Also urinal cake. A refreshing bretta-IPA. I wonder if the bretta is intentional here?
