Finally ticking this bish thanks to Al and Darrin :) Thanks guys! Bottle shared at the Blåbær Lambik 2016 release at Ølbutikken, Copenhagen. Pours hazy yellow with a big white head. Aroma is fruity as hell. Lots of tropical things like pineapples, mangos, melons going on. Also a lot of herbal spicy hops. Fresh citrus and tangerine. Taste is hoppy, tropical, dank, herbal, citrussy, melony. Delicious!

Keg at BD Mighty Boost, 01/11/19. Pasty yellow with an off white cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is weed, ripe citric flesh, pine resin, dank exhaust, melon, grapefruit, raw green leaning hop shit in a good way. Taste comprises mixed tropical fruits, weed, grass, pine needle, cantaloupe melon, orange pith, spruce. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with moderately aggressive weedy come danko hop bitterness. Solid DIPA... could chug !

Keg at BD Castlegate. It pours crazy cloudy milky gold with a decent foamy white head. The aroma is bright and fikthy green, crazy weedy, dank, bong rips, spring onion, ripe apricot, peachy, mango and floury bread. The taste is bright green and dank, filthy green bitterness, raw, weedy, onion, piney sting, peachy, apricot, lick of alcohol, spicy, pithy and floury bread with a drying finish. Medium+ body and fine, foamy carbonation. Big, green and filthy. Love it. Very moreish.

Keg at Brewdog seven dials. A murky golden orange coloured pour with a lasting sticky white head. Aroma is big dank hop, onion, rubber, green mango, smooth bready grains.. Flavour is composed of smooth creamy wheat and oats, spicy citrus, juicy dank hop, fresh green hop with mild hop burn,. Spicy citrus rind in the finish. Palate is lovely rounded, highish carbonation and a drying finish. Good stuff.

Taster at Hops & Pie. Pours a light, hazy, yellow color, with a big, foamy, white head. The nose is orange juice, mango, vanilla, and light pine. Sweet and juicy, with a mellow bitterness. Medium body, with a pulpy, acidic, and smooth palate. This is a tasty, aromatic IPA. Fun.
