This full-bodied, hazy double IPA is Citra-hopped with a juicy combination of mango, orange, and pineapple flavors finishing with a grapefruit aroma and ferocious bite.

Tap at Beer Temple, Amsterdam, 23rd March 2022. Pours a hazy yellow orange. Aroma is orange and tropical fruit, fresh fruit salad. Taste is smooth, fruity and easy to drink. Very decent, but doesn’t blow me away

It’s agood beer. With true classic ipa bitter firmness. This is sublimely balanced by the malty sweet body. Though it is a little acrid. It’s a nice balance between the classics and the modersn. Beertemple ams

very hazy pale yellow colour with floating (yeast) particles, large, dense and quite stable ecru-ish head; aroma of lemon peel, pine resiny, grapefruit, some dill, grassy, moderate pineapple and mango notes; taste of syrupy sweetness, definite hoppy bitterness and the same notes as can be felt in the aroma; great IIPA!

US Pint can from Hi-Time Wines, Costa Mesa. Drank at my daughters place in Laguna Hills on 22nd December 2021. This was my last beer of a mini-session with myself. Hazy/cloudy golden body, huge white head of billowing bubbles. The Citra hop gives of it's well known flavours and esters, so it's an orange/pineapple/mango tropical fruit cocktail of a beer. I liked the alcoholic kick it held too. Nice!

My first can of King Sue, a tall boy at that. Great expectations, let us see if it delivers. I will pour into my New Belgium globe glass because it just seems to be the thing to do. I determine a very hazy, goldish orange body with a momentary head of large bubbled, near-white foam, settling to a skim. I will say, that is a fine nose, tropical with a bit of pine. A drink gives some good follow-up, pineapple, varnish, pine cones, lemon, some grassiness and orange juice. I like the juicy sweetness and the smaller bitterness. Good for the style, I like others more.

Burk på Månen stockh . 👃 stoppa i glaset ja då blir jag glad. Doftar klassiskt USA tungt men blandning av 🥭 frukter. Törstig som jag är efter rört mig långa sträckor Så klunkar jag. Och ja fyllig citrus 🍊 och efter några sekunder kommer lite dovare smaker som Papua. Liiite tallbarr finns också Ja fan jag håller med ölnördar denna är sjukt 😋. Goood Heja USA Dipor (Alkoholhalten låg står 7.8% på ratebeer. Få ut så mycket smaker👍men på burken i äkta USA stil står ingen info alls om alkoholhalten) lite kul
