In my point of view, this beer is perfect for the summer, at our Lemanus lake or lake of Geneva for the tourists, dry, hoppy and resinous, 22.11.19, at Hoofdroop, buying it at one Albert Heijn, Amsterdam Zuid

Hoppy aroma of citrus and some tropical fruits. Flavour is hoppy and fruity with a light to medium bitterness in the aftertaste. Quite fresh and easily drinkable, mission accomplished. Rerate from bottle: Aroma is grassy hops, floral, fruity notes. Flavour is almost medium bitter. Body is light. Enjoyable refreshing session IPA.

Tap at Botermarkt Bierfestival, Haarlem: Slightly hazy golden colored brew with an nice bitter taste, hints of citrus fruits. Not bad brew but works really good in the summer.

Murky orange with foamy head. Tropical aroma—a mix of honey melon, citrus and caramel. Light-bodied, watery, a touch oily, with a short, bitter finish and a tad too much carbonation. Fails to really feel refreshing. Drinkable.

Bottle. Golden color. Lemon, grass, onion and mango in the aroma. Watery and thin, but delicious. Lemon, hay, grapefruit. Layers of hops, slightly herbal. Grassy citric aftertaste.
