Pale yellow with lasting head. Aroma and flavour have plenty of floral and skunky hops. Texture is very fine and smooth for an IPA. Very full flavoured. Not overly bitter or syrupy. Background sweetness. Good stuff.

Suave amargo final también herbaceo fresco y persistente. Cuerpo medio algo pastoso y denso pero fácil de beber. Refrescante y bastante buena. Para repetir.

355ml can into shaker. Slightly hazy golden beer with solid white head. Laces well. Practically no carbonation, the odd lonely bubble. Nose is mostly malt with earthy hops in the background. Good body, smooth oily texture. Surprisingly easy drinking at 8%! Finish is subdued bitterness with a hint of fruit and warming alcohol. Nice one.

Can at home. Pours a slightly hazy orange colour with an off-white head. Aroma with lots of pine, ammonia, apricot and some caramel, spicy hops and dry hay. Lots of grassy hops in the flavour along with citrus, pine and some caramel. Has a slick and soft mouth feel, full-bodied and medium bitterness. A rich and hoppy IIPA, but well-balanced.

Medium offwhite head doesn’t last. Clear still deep yellow body. Tropical fruit and pineapple aroma with alcoholic notes. Sweetish toffee and tropical fruit taste with pineapple notes. Fullish body. Mild, slightly hot mouthfeel. Dryish resiny tropical fruit aftertaste with grassy spicy floral notes. Decent malt base, and clear, vivid hop flavours on top. Balanced and drinkable. (0.355l can, not sure where from.)

650 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 8.0%. Golden colour, moderate white head. Lovely aroma of fruity and piney American hops - notes of tropical fruits, citrus and pine needles. Lots of fruit, pine needles and resin in the slightly sweet flavour too. Bitter finish, very bitter aftertaste.
