A solid, fresh and juicy IPA. Grapefruit, orange, and fruit rind hops tempered by some tropical fruit notes. Classic slightly sweet bready IPA malts. A breath of fresh air in a storm of East Coast fruit juice!

Incredibly juicy, loaded with tropical fruit, orange and zesty lemon oils and solid peach. Full mouth feel, lively carb. Finish is lightly bitter more abundance of tropical fruit and citrus. A very juicy, fruity ipa.

Can from Lekkerbier, Sint Nicolaasga. Aroma is citrussy hop with orange, pale malt, some grapefruit and a little pine. Flavour is moderate bitter, body is medium. Good IPA, some more bitterness would have been appreciated.

Big can pours a murky yellow white head. Nose has muddled tropicals and citrus, herbs. Flavors same. A touch saccharine. Medium full bodied. Just OK.

473ml can. Cloudy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of lemon, tangerine, orange, some melon, a touch of grape sugar, overtones of unspecific tropical fruit. Taste is sweet-ish, minimally sugary, pale malty and citrusy fruity hoppy, notes of mandarine, orange, some lemon, melon, grape sugar, tropical fruit. Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium, soft carbonation. Relatively sweet and slightly sugary, nice citrus flavours - good.

473ml can. Pours a hazy gold-yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy lacing. Sweet fruity aroma of biscuit malt, tangerine, orange, pineapple, peach, mango, pine resin and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of biscuity pale malt, tangerine, grapefruit, mango, peach, pineapple, pine resin and herbal hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Not exactly wicked or awesome, but pretty solid.
