Crisp and aromatic, this boldly-hopped American ale balances notes of citrus and tea-like earthiness from American hops with a subtle German malt base.

Copper colored, medium- off white head. Aroma is of malt, caramel biscuit and herbal hops with some citrus notes. Taste is low to medium sweet malt, caramel, quite biscuity, herbal, grassy hops with some citrus. Low+ bitterness and a dry finish. Low to medium bodied and carbonation. Easy drinking and nice. (0,355l bottle at Beerightback, Nova Gorica, SLO)

Bottle at Beer Hunters, Pori. Clear amber-copper color, small steady off-white head. Citrus, piney and a bit bready aroma. Light-bodied. Pale malty with piney flavor. Hints of citrus. Simple pa. Of course probably better over the pond.

0.355 bottle at Sir William’s Pub, Ljubljana, Slovenia. Pours deep clear orange with small off white head. Tropical, honey and mint aroma. Drinkable and refreshing, but body to light. Hoppy character not to strong, maybe lack something. Taste is well balanced, light sweetness and some bitterness. Light finish. Good.

Bottle, 0.355l, shared with Leo. Pours clear amber color with medium creamy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of tropical fruits, flowers and bread. Taste starts with moderate sweet caramel malt and resin, following is refreshing grassy, mouthfeel rather dry, while finish is pleasant bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Not victorious, but it’s always good to suit your needs...

Pours a dark amber from a bottle. Smells like sex. Tastes like beer though. A little thin.
