Huge, very fine & dense yellow head over bright if veiled orange-golden beer with classic lacerings. Very inviting straw-lupulin-citrus nose, intense. Some (dry) cookie malts. Fresh lupulin and orange, and ultra-dry straw, lupulin galore. Grapefruitpeel, dried. Medium bodied, little bit chewy, oily. Medium to good carbonation. Quite good DIPA, absolutely.

330ml draught shared with Finn at Cafe Sara. Patchy surface blanketing the glass, Hazy golden body. Inviting hop fruity smell of peaches and apricot. Flavoured with citrus and apricot, grainy malts beneath. Ripe fruity ending, bittersweet. Nice.(Oslo 28.11.2022).

Can. Color: Very hazy orange, white head. Aroma: Hoppy and malty, some citrus fruit. Taste: Very smooth light to moderate sweet wheat malt backbone. Citrus hop, orange, orange peel at the finish. Starting moderate bitter, going towards medium bitter towards the finish. Easy drinkable, refreshing, nice.

16oz can from Tavour. Hazy yellow golden pour with a creamy white head . Light bready aroma. Taste is also soft, bready malts, mild sweetness, and light bitterness. This is not the hop bomb I was imagining, instead a very approachable hazy IPA.

Can. Hazy gold, white head. Citrus, tropical fruit, peach, resin. Sweet finish. Not as bitter as you would think at 100 IBUs.

Tall can from Ktown Liquor at home while building furniture. Opaque hazy yellow slightly peach pour with puffy white head. Milkshake opacity. Aroma is lemon pith and some juicy pineapple and mango. Taste is similar - pithy bitter bite at the top, followed by juicy sweet tropical fruit and some alcohol. Palate is fuzzy and pithy prickly tingle, while maintaining a richness throughout. Very good example of the citrus forward - lemon mainly - pithy juicy style. Dry mineral finish - a bit unusual but not bad. Worth a try for sure.
