20 June 2025. “Iets voor den Erwin” @ Dracuna. Cheers to the whole GBV crew! Thanks to Wim P for sharing!
Lots of toasted onion, cheese, biscuit, mandarin peel, grapefruit juice. Bittersweet citrus peel, mango, onion, grass. Grassy & piney hops, bitter grapefruit, dank onion. Oily texture. Lovely, very old-school, I could drink gallons of it.

Can from Systembolaget. Little glue on the nose. Mature west coast IPA does what it should do.

Drunk watching murderbot before driving off on vacation, after a Pliny the Elder. I have many cans of this so it's not the first one. Amber light haze. Great citrus-caramel-dank goodness nose, flavor is smooth bitterness with a lightly tropical mid palate and nice malt overtones the whole way through. Excellent WC brew!
