Bottle at home, from a Euro Swap thanks to Wendigo, 20/03/20. Murky amber with a big old light egg shell white head. Nose is orange pith, sweet malts, grass, faint pine needle, grapefruit. Taste comprises orange pith, ripe melon, raw citric shreds, grass, hint of caramel, residual sugars. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with lightly astringent hop bitterness. Pretty basic for the style … rather sweet and lacking hop presence but sippable.

Bottle. Huge thanks Gurthnar! Murky dark amber-orange body, lasting off white head. Bit dark for a NEIPA of any kind, innit... Interesting aroma, big flowery-spicy hoppiness, helped on by just a touch of butterscotch. Distincitve, like a herbal liqueur. Smooth taste, lighter than expected, leaner, still smooth, with the same herbal-flowery-spicy notes going on. Not fruity at all really. Odd take at the style, definitely not my type, but hey, definitely... unorthodox (ba dum tss) and can't dismiss it as a bad beer. Not a beer I'd repeat more than once (on tap, fresh, to confirm my opinion or dismiss it).

Tap at Unorthodox. Pretty easy drinking, even though it has rather full body and a bit of an earthy muddy character. Fruity citrusy hops character is center of the beer. Quite good one.

Tap. Hazy brown, muddy color with no head. Aroma of citrus hops, zest, grassy notes,. Taste solid malty base followed by nice hoppy bitterness, with red berriers, pines, zesty. Long hoppy bitter finish. Good.
