Tiny Scissors is a great addition to our West Coast IPA line, this time putting Michigan Chinook, Citra Cryo, and the stickiest Columbus hops on full display. Brewed with a clean malt bill that provides structure and crispness, intense aromas of lychee, papaya, and diesel jump out of the glass. A moderate bitterness is built using high oil Centennial in early stages, before we finish with a burst of Citra and Mosaic INCOGNITO (a cool new high aroma extraction!). Enjoy the good old days

Can picked up from BeyondBeer Website Hamburg, Germany, consumed at home Saturday 17th October 2020 listening to Protomartyr - Ultimate Success Today. Pours light hazy dirty, yellowy colour with a white head. Mmhhhh... This is a little disappointing, malty, fruity, juicy but lacking some punch. Fine. Ok I accept that it's not super fresh but it's 8.2% so I thought that it would hold up.

8 July 2020. Random Wednesday Tasting; cheers to Anke & Tim! Can from Geers. Clear dark golden with a stable, small, frothy, white head. Aroma of grapefruit juice, mango, frying onion, dank tangerine, white pepper, biscuit, dark honey. Taste has sweet ripe peach, nectarine, almost overripe mango, bitter citrus peel with a dank onion effect in the back, vaguely sour too and supported by biscuity malt. Dry, floral, almost resinous hoppy finish, more bittersweet tropical fruit & sweet maltiness, gin-like alcohol glow. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Sweet but so well hopped, nice!

473ml can from The Slop Shop, Toritsu-Daigaku. Pours somewhat dull golden, some persisting white foam on the top. Nose is full of tropical aromas, sweet melon, lychee, some citrus. Taste has a good amount of resiny bitterness, hops are abundant and attacking your tastebuds with full vigor. Oily bitter palate remains lingering in the finish. This old-fashioned hop bomb has its charm, I do like this, quite enjoyable.

Can 473ml (Mikkeller web)
Golden colour, small white head. Flowery, citrus aroma with some wet doggie. Medium-bodied. Resiny, piney bitter flavour with grapefruit and some caramalt. A bit thinnish for its ABV. Okish West Coast IPA.

Can from Mikkeller Webshop and shared at home - clear golden coloured pour with a small white head. Sweet fruity and malty with notes of tangerine and grapefruit, peach, sweet caramel malty backbone, piney resinous bitter hoppy finish. Solid west coast action.
