1 pint can at La Polar. Great art by Emic on the label. A hazy and mate orange pour with a non-diminishing, yellowish head. Aroma is very intense: dandelion, bitter orange, verbena, lemon blossom, mowed lawn. Bone dry, medium-bodied. Tart and bitterish. Veeeer-r-ry long-lasting with hints of black pepper. Gooooood!!!

Caña en el Kraken 15..06..2019 (r06). Color amarillento turbio con espuma blanca persistente. Sabores maltosos y cereales con toques lupulados verdes, suaves lupulinas y afrutados tropicales dulces persistentes. Cuerpo medio con bastante sabor dominando el cereal. Más menos denso y fino. Normal, para repetir. Se nota el toque irlandés suave algo descafeinado.

440ml can at home. Pours a murky yet effervescent orange juice colour. Nose is huge grapefruit and mango aroma with some yeast notes. Flavour is like a NEIPA on steroids...HUGE grapefruit flavour that overpowers everything else. Tried to determine what the kveik adds to this, still not sure

Yeasty grapefruit aroma. Cloudy -looks like an Arnold Palmer. Thin white head retaining as a collar. Taste is fruity and white bread from yeast. Slight grain. Honeydew. Very interesting. Has some lactose qualities.
