Teku showing moderately filtered dark gold with half a finger of clean white foam.

Then nose shows moderately intense notes of papaya and guava.

The palate is medium bodied and well carbonated with a moderate alcoholic bite and a strong citric zest throughout. Papaya and pineapple forward with a mild bitterness. Had about half pint but would have been happy with a third, it kinda tires your palate.

Can poured into an IPA glass. Dark, hazy gold with a large white head. Aroma is grapefruit, orange, fresh citrus rind. Initial taste is balanced with bright citrus mixed with earthy notes. Fades to citrus, earth, rind, pine. Full body and steady carbonation. Fantastic.

Heavy palate, lots of stone fruit, modest hop burn, grapefruit and tropical fruit. Modestly tart and dank. Decent but not mind blowing

(Bottle, thanks to Håkan) Golden amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, grapefruit, gooseberries, resin, pine needles, biscuits and herbal/vegetal hops. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of crisp-bread, citrus, grapefruit, apricots, resin, pine needles, mandarin and a generous piney/herbal bitterness in the finish. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Clean and fresh, hoppy and well balanced. Great IPA.
