American Dream has a hazy golden body with a medium off-white head. Packed with American hops, it is great for a hot summer day.
Aromas of apricot, grapefruit and peach with flavors of Earl Grey tea, passionfruit and grapefruit.

Tap, City Beer Store. A fine beer but not terribly exciting. This beer looks, smells and tastes a lot like a dry IPA. It drinks a bit bigger than the abv would suggest. The beer has a nice aroma that leans toward American hops - grapefruit rind and pine notes. There’s also a touch of grassiness and some yeast in the nose. The flavor is dry and yeasty with light hop bitterness. Mouthfeel is light and quite good. It’s a nice sessionable beer that costs a fairly outrageous price, at least this far from its home.

Clear cobber with a medium off white head. Hoppy aroma with pine and grapefruits. Loads of american hops in the aroma along with grapefruits and pine. So all the extra hops left out the space for the thirst crunching pilsener that the gemans have produced so excellent throughout a century. It’s a nice beer allright and I know It’s very popular to throw in a massive amount of hops, but it’s not a pilsener.

Cloudy, orange-yellow beer with medium blond head.Very temptating aroma, lot of mangos and papaiyas, some pine forest and resin. Lot of fruits are found also in the flavour and it turns into more bitter and also some pine needles are found with dry end. Quite ligot ht to drink as supposed but it won’t bother to enjoy this beer. First aroma and taste is awesome and that feeling abate slighlty but still is great fruitfull beer.

Hazy light amber color; thin creamy head. Powerful hop aroma, extremely fruity: orange, tangerine, passion fruit. Dry mouthfeel, dry malt flavor, with traces of crispness, but also yeast; surprisingly there is a pleasant smoke touch; soft resins and citrus fruits oils, a reminder of fruits too. The final is too bitter, without backbone, a bit astringent and yeasty.
Pleasant, but also too dry and yeasty.

Deep blond color. It has a nice sweaty and fruity aroma (grapefruit and passion fruit). Dry toffee flavor, strong bitterness, maybe harsh. Enjoyable.

(Draught at Glenfiddich Warehouse 68, Stockholm, 8 Dec 2009) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrussy hops, orange and grainy malt. Fruity, hoppy taste with grainy malt, orange, mandarin and a generous grapefruity, piney hop bitterness in a dry, well balanced finish. Medium body, dry. Brilliantly balanced. Very nice and tasty lager with a refreshing hop character and dryness.

Bottled at Örebro Öl- och Whiskeyfestival. Hazy deep golden. Sweaty rich hoppy nose, Salty ansd slim, dry with grainy malt and clean mouthfeel. Good late bitterness. A streamlined, clean hoppy beer that is hugely refreshing. I love this type of fairly light well hopped drinkable beers!
