On tap @ Krak n’ Town. Extremely vivid hoppy, floral and fruity notes in aroma. Strong, bitter taste with long lasting finish. Light-to-medium body, lively carbonation. I’m not familiar with the NE IPA as a style so this one is a hundred percent subjective opinion.

From tap at Hopaholic, Budapest. Aroma is juicy and fruity with soft grapefruit, orange, and some mango. Flavour is mild sweet and softly bitter. Body is medium. A pretty decent variety of NE IPA, has the hazy look and the juicy aroma, lacks a little oomph to put it over the edge. Nice.

Can, #785. Milky pale yellow, white low lacing head. Peach, guava, citrus aroma. Medium light body, light catty and fruitpeel bitterness initially, clears into fruity notes as it breathes a bit. Quick finish. Earthy retronasal. I notice it is a month past its BB date, and the can stresses to drink it fresh - but it only arrived in Munich recently, so maybe don't ship it here if freshness is critical?

44cl can from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours hazy pale gold, with moderate fine white foam. Aroma is citrus, a little resinous. Body is average, like carbonation. Taste is medium-high bitter, with a hint of initial sweetness. Final is average.

Can, 0.44l. Hazy pale orange pour, juice-like appearance, no head. Tropical fruity nose, pineapple, grapefruit, mango. Floral and herbal touches in the background. Medium to full body, soft carbonation. Soft and chewy, very smooth mouthfeel and texture, goes down quite nicely. Fruity sweet taste balanced with mild bitterness. Fruity and tropical aroma. Pineapple, grapefruit, peach, mango. Pine, herbs, floral notes. Caramel malt in the background. Well rounded and nicely balanced. Short to medium lasting finish, slightly dry, fruity, lingering mild herbal spiciness. Tasty.

Tap at 100 piv. Very rich juicy fruity character being the center of the beer. Malt and hops in background, at least in the traditional sense of the word. Med-full perceived body, moderate carbonation. Loads of exotic tropical citrusy fruity goodness. Very tasty, easy drinking, very good.
