Old rating from 10-08-15 - 330ml bottle, pours a amber colour with a white head that doesn't last long. Aromas of malt & fruit. Tastes very much of the high ABV level with flavours of the hops just about coming through. Feels of medium carbonation. Overall a disappointment.

Cask. Hazy pale amber colour, small foamy head. Aroma is sweet fruits, some ripe fruits, mild floral notes as well as some biscuity and bready notes. Flavour is similar, but also has a slight alcoholic sting to it. Yet easy to drink and balanced.

Bottle from an online shop. Medium amber, orangey with a small head. Nose is strangely sweet, syrupy, tangy citrus hop notes, but then a chemical-like tang. Creamy mouthfeel at first, quite alright, decent malt aftertones. But then an artificial and metallic taste is left which kind of kills it for me. For sure it's bitter enough to call itself an IPA.

330ml bottle. Clear, faint, orangey, dark golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Floral and minimally herbal, fruity, hoppy aroma, caramel malty background, hints of orange, rose hip, nettle, thistle. Taste is slightly dry, caramel malty, herbal and floral hoppy, subtle residual sweetness, hints of tea, thistle, nettle; lingering, bitter-herbal finish. Oily texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Not the most flattering hop flavours, quite herbal, earthy - so-so.

clear dark golden colour, medium sized acru-ish head; aroma of canned apple or apple pie, grape juicy, pear and floral notes; taste of fruity (pear and grape-like) sweetness, resiny-hoppy bitteness and some spicy horseradish-like notes; enjoyable IPA - but for sure not a hop monster

33cl bottle. Pours red amber, fully transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is at first malty and herbal, but later reminding dishwashing soap. Body is too light, with moderate carbonation. Taste is medium-high bitter, with a little underlying sweetness. Final is thin, like the body.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Bottle. Golden color. Citrus, toffee in the slightly herbal aroma. Tea-like hopbitter flavor with citrus and floral notes. Slightly alcoholic. Fairly well balanced. Hint of toffee in the finish.
