IPA is the King of Craft beer and this IPA is Heart of Darkness flagship. A mixture of the great Columbus and Cascade IPA hops provide piney, citrus flavours with hints of bergamot and grapefruit. A big, hoppy beer which is not for the faint of heart. Recommended for experienced Craft beer drinkers and those that can appreciate big, bold, bitter flavours.

Can kindly shared by Rubin77, many thanks. Amber color with medium white head. Aroma of caramel, fair portion of citrus hops. Taste is mainly caramel, oxidation, moderate citrus hops. If there wouldn’t be oxidation, this could be very good beer.

Tap at Takumi Lot 10. Clear amber-golden body, off-white head. Creamy orange, peach, and wormwood aroma on some maltiness. Creamy orange taste, smooth maltiness, surprisingly strong wormwoody bitter herbal finish.

Can@Littlepub, Vasa. Amber colour with a small longlasting white head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is resin, pine, some bready, floral and mild wooden notes. Flavour is floral, wooden, some pine, mild resin as well as some herbal and mild toffee tones. Nice straight forward old schoot IPA.

Lett tåkete brun med offwhite skum. Lukter tørkede frukter, grapefrukt og malt. Ganske fyldig Ipa med kraftig humlepreg. Klassisk bitter og fruktig.

Can at Phong Nha Farmstay. Strong Grapefruit and pine aroma. Deep gold. Strong on the Hops. Bitterness is somewhere between good West Coast bitterness and soapy mess. Always hard to rate these fairly when surrounded by macro rubbish.
