This American-hopped IPA marries a bold and complex hop character of pine, citrus and spice with fruity notes and a crisp finish created by our Kölsch yeast.

A slight hazed blonde IPA with fantastic aromas of spicy fine, resinous hop character, and citrus fruit. Balanced flavor between the American hops and our German Kölsch yeast strain provides a very unique backdrop for the hops to interact.

Draught @ One Pint Pub, Helsinki. Pours clear golden orange with a foamy white head. Aroma of fruits, pine, grass, caramel and citrus. Taste is sweetish, malty and herbal with some pine, grass, citrus and resin. Finish is crisp, hoppy and slightly herbal with some fruits, pine, grass and citrus. Okay, not super fresh though.

Can from Asda. Slightly opaque gold, with a tight, white, head and moderate carbonation. Aroma of stone fruits and mango, with a floral hop edge.Flavour had more fruits, some green herbs and robust, slightly toasty malts, before a lingering, bitter, finish. A pleasant IPA.

Tap at Ravintola Kirjakauppa. Slightly yellow color, small white head and some lace. Aroma has citrus and pineapple. Medium-bodied. Active carbonation. Flavor has bear gums, citrus and pale maltyness. Easy with tropical candyish twist (interesting as no special hops used).

12oz can pours with a clear gold body that supports a full tall off white head of foam. The aroma offers up malts, crystal like malts, a bit of spicy yeast and spicy hops with a load of floral hops bringing up the rear. The taste delivers bready to bitter floral hops flowing into a modest sugary malt sweetness to midway. It gets a little sweet lime like here and there too. Decent but the hop and malt bill aren’t my favorites for this style.
