Can, mild gusher. Hazy golden pour. Aroma of sweet juicy tropical fruit, pineapple, mango and orange. Taste of juicy tropical fruit, mango, pineapple, skunk, oat and orange. Bit too much carbonation. Fairly typical, but not bad.

Picked up at De Molen Brewery, Bodegraven, Netherlands and consumed at Mini Camping Polderflora, Alphen aan den Rijn, Netherlands following Borefts After Festival Kaapse Brewery which we'd attended with Loz's work colleague Cindy, Sunday 23rd September 2018. Pours like an unpasteurised apple juice, it's not pretty. The hop combination (Citra, Mosaic and the in vogue Loral) "really work well together. A really good interpretation of the style, like this a lot it's a touch sweet but it's got a good hoppy bite. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov16 3.9

New England style IPA by Kees, thanks Craftmember for sharing. Membrane-lacing, egg-white, stable and moussy head on a misty ochre-tinged straw blonde beer. Perfumey, tropical aroma of lime blossoms, green onions, tropical orchids, mango, melon, white pepper, pink grapefruit, dough. Sweetish onset, starfruit-, papaja- and lychee-like notes with a sourish dash of lime and some minerally side effects, softly carbonated, doughy and bready malt core, sweetish but bittered by the hops in an adequate, yet soft and mellow way, with something ‘green’ (fresh spring onion) lingering amidst mango and pomelo hop fruitiness. Ends juicy, aromatic and a bit powdery. Elegant and successful NEIPA, though not quite at the world class level of Trillium’s, Cloudwater’s or Tree House’s creations in this still very popular style.

Bottle @ Drie Dorstige Herten. Hazy golden. Citric, medicinal, light malty, juicy, fairly bitter. Nice.
