Canned@Rådhuskällaren, Umeå. Hazy golden colour with a mediumsized white head, that leaves some lace. Aroma is fruity, citrusy, mild grassy elements along with some biscuity tones and grains. Flavour is bready, grainy, some citrus, mild herbs, fruity bitterness as well as some mild peachy tones.

Slightly hazy golden coloured body with a thinnish, pure white head, only a centimetre or so tall, that fades relatively quickly. Aroma of light grass, hay, a good deal of citrus and some moderate alpha acids and some noticeable malt for the majority of the scent and ending with a touch of alcohol. Medium-bodied; Strong dry and herbal hoppiness up front with a solid malt backbone and a bit of resin and floral notes towards the end. Aftertaste shows the grassy, very dry hop flavours with some moderate bitterness from the malts with only a tiny bit noticeable from hops, as most of the hops hit way up front with more of a hop kick that is dry and grassy and less on the citrus side. Overall, a nice and balanced beer that shows much more closely to an APA than an IPA and especially a Hazy IPA, but still not a bad offering throughout. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Wegman's in Fairfax, Virginia on 21-July-2018 for US$1,67 sampled a few weeks later after just moving into my new house in August 2018 here in Washington

[12oz can from Total Wines, Naples, FL.] An opaque amber pour with a think white head; grapefruit aroma; rather thin in the mouth with a grapefruit taste; then an oddly metallic bitterness to finish. Good in parts.

Sampled on draft at Hugo's this beer poured a hazy yellow color with a large creamy white head that left great lacing. The aroma was dry, tart and citric with perfume and pepper. The flavor was musty, yeasty, citric and piney. Medium length finish. Medium body.

Can from Village Beer Merchant. Hazy golden. Tropical fruits, mango, juicy, bit of resin. Fairly bitter. Ok beer, not too much of an NE style though

12 ounce can into tulip glass, best before 8/29/2018. Pours very hazy deep golden amber/light orane color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and rocky off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of big tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very mild pine, zesty, herbal, grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; with a solid malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Slightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is fantastic. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 6%. Overall this is a great NE APA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the minimally bitter/drying finish. Amazingly soft feel. Loved the Citra, Cascade, Ekuanot showcase as expected. Extremely juicy hops; with perfect wheat/oat/malt balance. Not overly sweet/heavy. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Really impressive for their first NE style.

12oz can. Foamy white head on top of a hazy, thick orange-tan body. More of a classic IPA taste with Cascade leading the way. On the fuller side of medium bodied. A little rindy..not so juicy or tropical. OK.
