On tap @ prima edizione di Mash, Craft Beers & Arts Festival, Milano 2019. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il luppolo e il mango. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e il modo in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma cremosa ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida e anche qui la grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, agrumi, pompelmo e ananas.

Can from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Juicy fruity hoppy aroma with lots of citrus, mild tropical fruits, soft herbal Mosaic, some grapefruit, light biscuity malt. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Royally hopped and aromatic, an ace SIPA!
