Bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who got it in a trade with Allen (thanks!) Poured an amber body with a small white head that went away fast. Intensive and very nice sweetish agrumey nose with some herbal hints. The taste delivers on the promise that the aroma makes. It’s a bitter, pungent IPA, with agrumes, pine and pineapple (quite distinctive, the last one). Strong bitterness leaving a long aftertaste. Some sticky maltiness shows there but it’s covered by the hop. Almost superb really.

33 cL bottle, courtesy of fiulijn. Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma is yeasty and crisp fruity. Peachy and mild grapefruity flavoured. Bitter and crisp dryness into a lasting fruity finish. Vague yeasty note.

Draught Good very fine & dense, snowwhite head over pale amber-gold beer with " Grünstich ". Very malty nose, with just enough hops (noble, but not C-) to call it APA, but as to IPA? Still, very nice. Taste however, is hoppy " à souhait . Still pretty sweet-malty base, near sugary; again more EU noble hops, very little citrussy, let alone resiny. Rather light body, but slick and even sticky, again pointing towards lots of maltsugars. Nice, if (or maybe because of) uncharacteristic IPA. European version...

Thanks Alex! Hazy beige-tan colour. Fruity aromas (peach, orange) with a light malt underpinning. Slight tartness, bitterness, kind of juicy in its hop accent. A more refreshing example.

Bottle (kindly delivered by Allen!): Light amber coloured, hazy, bigger rocky off-white head, sticking to the glass; solid aromatic-peppery hoppy nose with both a malty and a yeasty touch; solid bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied; lingering hoppy (aromatic, spicy, medical) finish, balanced by a small amount of sweet toasty malt. Hopp Schwyz......!

(bottle, 33cl, with thanks to Allen!) Hazy, golden colour with a medium-sized and slightly off-white foamy head. Fresh, lemon-fruity and piney hoppy aroma with notes of pine-apples and a mildly yeasty and pale malty background. Moderately bitter flavour, medium bodied with a sparkly carbonation. Quite complex hops profile with mainly fruity accents of citrus/lime, exotic fruits and piney, woody elements; dry and slightly bitter noble hoppy finish with a mildly malty sweetness. A very aromatic and rounded brew. 21.XII.09

Bottle: Poured a cloudy hazy dirty orangey color ale with a super large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of dry European style hops with light citrus notes also noticeable. Taste is also dominated by dry and astringent hops with light citrus notes also noticeable and some light Belgian style malt base. Body is quite full with great carbonation. Well done thought maybe a bit too astringent for my taste.

Bottled. An amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of hops and flowers as well as lighter notes of peaches. The flavor is sweet malty combined with notes of straw, caramel, and flowers, leading to a dry bitter finish. Thanks omhper for sharing.

Bottle, thanks Allen. Hazy orange-amber, big fluffy golden head, lively carbonation. Apricot hop aromanotes which carry over into the flavor, a hint phenols which fit into the profile, lemons, kiwis. Medium bready body, sparkly. Leaves a fruity aftertaste.
