Tap at Beergeek Bar. Hazy amber body, off white head. Citrusy hoppiness, cookie dough maltiness, actually quite interesting. Lean, dry, sbut sweetish citric taste, with a pretty solid bitter kick, some more of that cookie-like maltiness. There's a certain astringency about it but it's also quite unique on the other side. Was intrigued by it more than thrilled.

Amber with a frothy head. Aroma of butterscotch with both citrus and floral tones. Taste is bitter the whole way through, turning sharp at the end, with a very mild underlying sweetness. Dry with a light warmth. Medium bodied, moderate to mild carbonation. Okay.

Kolor herbaty mocnej. Smak bittera, takiego ciastkowego. Ma troche goryczki malo fajnej. Nie ma owocowosci. W cholere ciezkie w odbiorze. Karmelowo-ciasteczkowe. Jakies przyprawy. To jest jakis wynalazek a nie imperialna ipka... no, moze taka z xix wieku

Thin tight off white head left a collar on a reddish brown, finely carbonated body. Summer fruits, Tropical fruits & candy aroma. Medium bodied, slightly tingly to the fore followed by a smooth creamy back. Sweet citrus, fruit juices, kiwi, peach, confectionery, berries & mango with a long tangy hoppy finish.

On tap @ Ghetto Something. Aroma is resinous, caramelly, fruity and slightly herbal. Pours hazy brown color with large soapy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts with moderate sweet caramel and resin, follows by orange and marmalade with grassy note, mouthfeel is smooth and warm, while finish is pretty bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Nice old school DIPA...

Amber colour with thin head and low carbonation. Aroma and flavour are quite syrupy. Somewhat resinous and grassy. A bit dank and misses some fizz. Not so much California sun, more like a wet weekend in Wuppertal.

On tap at La Fine Mousse, Paris on 25th November 2017. Brownish copper with thin ring-and-film. Sour citrus and intense malt aroma. Zesty peel and tart orange citrus in-mouth with sweet malts and berries. Rich and intense, long lasting citrus zesty finish. Medium bodied with a zingy mouthfeel. Absolutely exquisite.
