On tap at Trofeja, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma has diacetyl, some piney hops, and light citrus. Flavour actually doesn’t have too bad a butter issue, with piney hops, citrus, and light butter. Still messed up but not egregious.

Draught @ Trofeja Aroma has some fruitiness and nettles. Flavour has nettles, some orange marmalade, cereal. Also pine needles. Feels leathery. The nettle and pine needle tones are somewhat interesting but this is still not exactly my thing. Just too dry.

33cl bottle from Lauvas alus webshop. Pours slightly hazy amber with a large, off-white head. Malty and somewhat fruity with citrusy notes and caramel. Modcerate to medium sweet with rather mild flavours and ditto bitternes. Feels a bit messy and dirty and more homebrewish, but still drinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Mani Sauc Jakims on 08 Sep 2020 at 19:37 - Score: 5

New brewery, their first beer Smell- weak, bit to medium, malt, hops, faint caramel. Foam- thin, hops, bitterness, quite intense hit of hops. Head is small, creamy white color, like dirty white but with orange tones. Appearance- generic golden bottle cap, nice bottle label. Clear orange-amber, low carbonation. From - snifter Taste - above-average hit of hops, bitterness, same in the background. There is also malt mixed in, faint citrus. Not my style, I like my IPA sweet and fruity.
