Bottle - Amber in colour. Grapefruit, peach and hints of dried fruit in the aroma. Bitter, hoppy and zesty taste with notes of grapefruit dominating proceedings, as well as some dried apricot.

Bottle from Mikkeller Online Shop. Amber, hazy body, with a medium, creamy, white head. Aroma of grapefruit, peach, berries, biscuit. Taste with about the same aromas in the beginning, quickly merging into a dry grapefruit bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium, oily, with a medium carbonation and it finishes with dry bitter grapefruit. Not bad. The hop and malt aromas are really tasty and in a great balance, but the grapefruit is a bit too dominant for my liking, so that it quickly overlaps the great hop bill. A really refreshing and fruity DIPA nonetheless.

Draft. A hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of grapefruit and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, grapefruits, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.
