Clear golden with a white head. Notes of mandarin oranges, melon, pine, stone fruit, pineapple, mango, other juicy tropical fruit. The alcohol is a bit present, the beer bitter and just a bit sweet. --- Beer merged from original tick of Ninja Vs Unicorn Double IPA on 20 Apr 2018 at 21:15 - Score: 8. Original review text: Soft, oily texture, tropical fruit, mandarin oranges, some pine, what's not to like?

Can, 0.473l. Aroma of citrus, passion fruit, pineapple and mango. Pours cloudy golden color with medium creamy off-white head, good lacing and sparkling appearance. Taste starts with medium sweet toasted malt, following is grassy and mild fruity, mouthfeel is warming and astringent, while finish is heavy bitter with long lasting aftertaste. Full body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. Perfect appearance and a bit less perfect taste...

Közepes, tartós hab, tiszta, borostyán szín. Enyhe, citrusos, kissé fűszeres illat. Grapefruitos, narancsos, mandarinos ízek, barack, ananász és más déligyümölcsök aromáival, pici gyantával. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, erősen keserű. Jól kiegyensúlyozott, jól összerakott IPA.

Tap @Taphouse. Hazy orange, white froth. Piney, peachy and caramely aroma. Similar flavour, fruity with lasting hoppy bitterness. Sweet with herbal finish.

Can. Enormous thanks Sandi! Poured a hazy golden-amber body. Peachy, orangey, grapefruity creamy aroma with light herbal touches. Hops everywhere! Creamy taste, herbal, orangey and peachy notes, ending dry. Light herbal notes, no alcohol anywhere. Hop burps ensue! This is well deserving of its high scores!

Can at home from DeBierkonig, 21st January 18. Pours orange, some haze, not much head. Aroma is mango, ripe tropical fruit. Taste is fruity, mango, ripe citrus, resin, orange, bitter marmalade, so smooth and balanced. Great DIPA.
