Slight haze, haze kind of dull, the mandarina is in particular not bright. So some duller hops, not all that bitter. Malt forward and the malts aren’t great.

650ml bottle at Matt’s place. Pours a slightly murky golden amber with a white head. Aroma is hoppy, citrusy, sweet. Taste is sweet, bitter, hoppy, citrusy. Piney bitterness aftertaste. Good stuff.

22 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out orangey and resinous hops, with a little citrus and caramel malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with orangey notes, resinous hops, and sweet candied caramel notes. Rather sweet and orangey. Not nearly as good as I remember the regular Hop Henge. Still, decent.

Bottle - Sweet candy and medicinal, touch of onion and caramel. Clear gold with a dcent white head. Lots of sweet notes, some candy and a light bitter finish. Not as good as it usually is.

Bottle from Brewery Creek, Vancouver
Hazy golden color with compact head. The aroma develops in the glass; it starts with very fresh mandarin and mango, it changes to higher notes of biscuity malts and summer flowers in a hot field. Lean body, with a very mild sweetness; nice malts, less crackery than expected though; it has a good level of bitterness, the hops are juicy, mellow.
Excellent beer, I wish I had it fresher.

On tap at the Brewpub in Portland. Amber with a white head. A lot of hops in this one. Also grapefruit and grass. The mouhtfeel was a bit oily. Bitter finish.
