Bottle at home, orange beer with a small head, aroma is full of fruits, and hoppy. Taste is the same, nicely bitter, quite a long aftertaste. Very nice.

Taste malts, hops, resinous, nicely bitter. Medium body and carbonation. Nice IPA with quite a full hoppy flavor. Thank god I had this fresh.

Bottle. Clear, amber body, with a medium, creamy, white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, peach, mango, some other fruits, caramel. Taste is refreshingly light bodied, with about the same aromas again and also some biscuit, grass and tea. Mouthfeel is medium, slick, with a medium carbonation and it finishes smooth, medium bitter, with lemon zest, pine, grass and some fruits. Tasty! A refreshing, light bodied, but still fully aromatic IPA, with a nice balance of fruits, pine and malts.

Bottle from The Beer Junction, Seattle
Hazy light amber color. The aroma is nicely hoppy and fruity, fresh. It has a dry mouthfeel, some caramel flavor, although more was expected from the malts; strong bitterness, the hopping is moderately resiny and lightly fruity; the final is caramellish and a bit harsh.
A good IPA, not as refreshing as it could be.

Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is a little airy and slightly crisp. Light semi sweet malts, touch of cream. Good hops - nice balance of floral pine and fresh orange. Good tangerine streak runs throughout. Traces of lemon and citric peel. Light finish. Fresh orange and marmalade linger on. Nice one, very tasty and by far the best hop led beer I’ve had from this brewery.

Bottle from Biernavigatie, large sample, served in a shaker. Almost clear golden color, medium frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, some cookie, bit grassy, some sweet candy, some mango. Medium bitter in taste, quite some malt. Bit one-dimensional. Slight sharpish in the finish. Medium carbonation, medium body. Average IPA.

355ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, orangey golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy hoppy aroma with hints of grapefruit, biscuity malt basis, hints of almond, sugar powder, marzipan, also a touch of ’Sauerkraut’. Taste is initially simply bitter hoppy, later citrusy with lemon notes, minimally sweet biscuity malt basis, hints of lemon biscuit; bitter finish with almond touch. Second class IPA.
