An India Pale Ale, Hair in the Mailbox is bright and hoppy at 6.3% ABV. Color is hazy golden with an off-white head. Aroma blends notes of malt, honey, tropical and citrus fruits, light floral tones and lemon zest. The palate is bursting with a blend of orange and pineapple from the hops and warm notes of pine. Body is medium with soft carbonation and both sweet and spicy. Finish is both dry and bitter with light resin and biscuit notes. Easy drinking and great for pairing with burgers or other greasy foods.

Can from Marks and Spencer, Brooklands. Aroma floral and grassy, with some pine. Hazy light gold. Thick foamy white head. Light bitter which gains some strength. Citrus and herbs. Light-medium. Slick verging on oily. Average carbonation. Perhaps it's fades but just doesn't do too much for me.

Can. M&S. Deep yellow. Moderate haze. Foamy white head, that lasts, and fully laces. Handsome beer. Nose has pineapple core. Summer stone fruit. Hint of dank. Clean malt backdrop. Taste has some malt sweetness, turning moderate, fruity, slightly resinous bitter. Medium body. Foamy carbonation. Fairly long, resinous bitterness to finish. Pretty good, especially at the price point.

In de tuin op 13 okt 2018, met Yvonne en Rob en 25 graden. Mooie gouden kleur, goed wit schuim en een aangename hopsmaak, prima.

Bottle from Albert Heijn drank at home. Slight hazy light golden with fluffy white head. Cantaloupe, grapefruit, 🥝, white grapes, soft candy, sugary malts, grapefruit, light dough. Solid medium sweetness and under medium bitter. Medium bodied. Nothing too weird or complex, just a pretty decent beer that goes down well. Nice.

Can from Marks & Spencer, Rickmansworth, Herts. A hazy golden/yellow coloured pour with a medium white head. Sweet, lemon, pineapple aroma. Tastes very sweet, not too complex, lemon, pineapple, some honey. Expected more from Mikkeller to be honest.

Can on the train to Manchester. Picked up from Watford M&S. A light hazed mid golden coloured pour with a a lasting rocky white head. Aroma is nice pineapple, Nelson, pollen, lychee and rubber ball. Flavour is composed of semi sweet wheaty base malts. White grape, lychee, spicy citrus, pithy lemon.. Assertive bitterness. Palate is semi sweet, bitter hop, frothy carbonation. Good stuff.
