Bottle from an Albert Heijn supermarket in the Netherlands. "Session IPA" just below standard ABV... Thick, irregular, 'membranous' lacing, egg-white, densely moussy head, slowly dissipating in the middle, over a very lightly hazy orange-tinged peach blonde beer with visible strings of fizz, a bit more hazy and deeper orange with sediment. Dank aroma of old garlic, cedar essential oil, frying red onions, grapefruit peel, biscuit, sweaty T-shirt, pond water, tamarillo, very old abbey cheese, tangy spring onion juice, hints of caramel, mandarin, paprika powder, dried mango, marijuana, minerals, fresh green seaweed. Crisp onset, spritzy, 'clean' fruitiness with low sweetness (think unripe green banana, some raw pineapple, pear peel) and a somewhat stronger sourish undertone, minerally side notes, smooth and slick mouthfeel. Bubbly, fizzy carbonation impairs drinkability a bit, but underneath lies a rounded, biscuity and cereally maltiness with sharper grainy edges, supporting a very dank, aromatic yet somehow 'old' hoppiness, sweaty, cheesy and urine-like, with retronasal hints of - in descending order - spoiled red onions, garlic, herb cheese (old hops), grapefruit peel and pine resin. Ends in herbal, grapefruity, resinous and wormwood-like bitterness matched with ongoing biscuity and fruity juiciness, with those minerally notes persisting. Piney, cheesy, oniony and dank, this is perhaps more than I bargained for; expectations are never high when I fetch an IPA from a supermarket, but this one passes for me, as a very aromatic, almost 'moss green'-coloured, quenching and pleasantly bittering IPA, though 4.5% ABV is perhaps still a bit much for the intended style, resulting in something that could just as well have qualified as a standard 'American' style IPA. At least this is daring enough to punch a lot of hoppiness in your face - even if it is cheesy, old, dank hoppiness, perhaps a bit too much so in my particular sample. Must be a lot more elegant and refined when young and / or from tap - I have to remember that for the next time I may encounter it.

(Keg at Tapas Bar Inez, 20170211) The beer poured amber and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, herbalness and mildly spiciness. Palate was light bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, herbalness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A decent mild and hoppy brew but lacks character.

Bottle at Ministarstvo, Nis. Thanks to Marta :) We’ve agreed it has kind of sweet aroma, honey maybe? Sweetness won’t let you go later and using words of my significant other I would say it’s apple in caramel. Bit heavy drinking for Session IPA. But yes, life is a beach.

Bottle, 330 ml at Miners Pub, Belgrade. Pours cloudy orange, medium white head. Fruity, peaches, citrus, grapefruit. Sweetish with moderate bitter finish. Medium bodied.
