Named for our grandfather, who was lovingly called "The Master". Its unforgettable character mirrors that of the legendary urban figure of "The Master". It's a fresh, fruity IPA that is perhaps not as bitter and makes it pleasing to drink. Merkur, Nelson and Citra hops.

Bottle, bb 21.06.2018 (at koht). Pours amber with whiteish head. Aroma is hoppy, citrus, fruits, some Belgian yeast. Flavor is sweet and bitter, fruity, soapy, citrus, some paper and booze. Finish is dry bitter with some peaches. Overall: very good, love the dryness.

Clear copper-orange beer, big-bubbled, under a huge, fluffy off-white head, stable. Citrussy hops, lots of exotic fruit (grapefruit, passion, ...) hopoils galore, and unripe apples. Citrussy, with a near-perfect bitter-acidity balance, and underbuild of malts. Again exotic fruitesters; cat’s pee/valerian in the finish. Hopoils/lupulin to the extent of astringency. Medium bodied, feels better carbonated than it looks. Definitely good IPA, but less stellar than often heard.

Bottle, courtesy of Summer Santa Benzai. A citrus-dominated IPA with a very crisp carbonation. Aroma of some lemon, lots of citrus peel, grapefruit. I’m sure this would be a bitter beer by IBU, but strong malts and a powerful carbonation turn that irrelevant. Fruity medium long finish. Yum.

Lichtbruin bier met veel schuim. Smaak is bitter hoppig en licht zoet, ananas en thee overheerst. Mooie balans in smaak.

Hazy gold beer, good cream colour head. Palate is airy and semi dry and finely crisp. Creamy sweet malts. Hops bring mild spice and pine with orange and tangerine. Trace of generic fruits. Some nice hop action here but for the malts are a little too prominent and front stage. Decent nontheless.
