(Bottle, 0.33 l, at Tuulensuu, 20120811) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had farmhouse backyard, hops and Belgian style yeastiness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, hops, malts, unmalted barley and bitterness. Aftertaste was messy and bitter. An interesting and also not so good version of double IPA.

33 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, BBE 04/2015
Aroma is weird, sweet and stale. It has some soapy fruits and artifical candy. Flavour is bitter with nettles and gooseberry bush. Also some fruits. Hoppy and dry finish. A bit too messy, the hops do not fit here at all.

33cl bottle @ home. Hazy murky opaque orange color with a big white head on top. Smell malts, hops, slightly sweet. Taste malts, hops, slightly grapefruit, tangerine, bitter. Soft carbonation, medium body. Decent, but lacks intensity imo.

Bottled at Pressklubben, Stockholm. Clear deep golden with rich dense head. Overt citric tangerine aroma with yeast induced spruce needles shining through. Sweet and fruity, medium-full body with soft mouthfeel. Spun sugar and tangerine, citric and aromatic. Restrained bitterness. More sweet and citric than bitter sweet.

33cl bottle. Orangée/brumeuse, col blanc épais. Arôme de houblon amer et fleuris, levure ce profile agréable de malt et grains. En bouche, bière fruitée assez douce laissant une pointe d’abricot et citron. Malt est léger allant vers la noisette/grillé/caramel, levure est bien active et reste aussi présente donnant un palais épais. Une IPA sympa avec une inspiration belge mais où la levure reste trop présente.
