Bottled. A hazy golden beer iwth a lazing off-white head. The aroma has notes of spices, fruits, hops, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, malt, and spicy hops, leading to a bitter finish.

Bottle. A lasting, dense, finger-thick off-white colored head forms over an almost clear, golden colored body. The aroma has lots of hoppyness, hop pellets, oranges, pine cones and hints of grass. Not much maltyness. There’s some sweetness in the flavor. Peaches, generic tropical fruityness, citrus peel and bitterness. More or less full-bodied, with a soft carbonation level. Almost warming on the palate. A very refreshing and tasteful IPA, hope they manage to distribute it in a way that ensures it’s always fresh. 140307

Small white head. Hazy deep yellow body. Deep resiny tropical fruit and citrus aroma with wooden spicy pine needle notes. Sweet-dryish resiny tropical fruit and lime taste with orangey spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, chalky mouthfeel. Dry resiny lime and tropical fruit aftertaste with minty peachy oranges notes. Very, very nice. Highly drinkable, full of flavour, harmonic and complex. This is a real winner, a beer I will definitely buy again. (0.5l bottle, from Gardermoen Airport tax free. Batch #700.)

Bottle at home. Pours a hazy orange color with a creamy, compact, off-white colored large foam head. Looks a bit like whipped egg whites. The aroma is fruity and floral, but also grass, grapefruit and sweet tropical fruit. In addition, the hops is very present; almost like stuffing hops pellets in the nose. The aroma has also some caramel, and feels a little dry in a way. The taste holds a lot of grassy hops, but goes more into fruity hops towards the aftertaste with a hint of citrus. Mouth feel is both smooth and rich, and the bitterness is at a comfortable medium level. An absolutely tasty IPA that is well balanced in all aspects, and with a nice and pleasant fruity touch. This is really my kind of IPA.

500ml bottle, courtesy of OleR. Close to clear, pale amber body colour. Fair white lacing-head. Attractive aromas of floral and lemony hops. The taste profile does not quite follows suit even though it has got a good touch of succulent and ripe fruits. Mid-dry citrus shells to the ending. Smooth in the mouth, perhaps a little heavy to drink. (shared with Stefan, Elisabeth and Finn, Tårnrommet, Tromsø 26.02.2014).

On tap at Schouskjelleren. Hazy golden with a white head. Fruity and hoppy aroma with pine, citrus, pale malt and hints of yeast. Moderate sweet with nice hoppy flavours and a decent bitterness. Refreshing!
