DFA is dead, long live DFA. Demus Favorem Amori - 'We choose to stand for love'. DFA, a surprising blend of flavours marrying mango, Vietnamese mint, lime, and chilli with the high citrus hit of centennial, amarillo, and citra hops. The result is a deliciously intense tryst of bittersweet heat, tropical fruit, and citrus hop character coming together to create a beer of rich, satisfying balance. Life is all about choices. Choose love.

Burk från SB. Smak och doft av mango, persika, aprikos, smörkola, apelsinskal, citrus, svart te, humle, malt med toner av grapefrukt, tall, gräs och passionsfrukt. Fruktig, frisk, krämig, rund och len, fin maltsötma, bra beska. Gott!

Bottle 0.65l from New Zealand, many thanks to Vallun and his friend. Cloudy, orange to red colored. AROMA- sweet, tropical fruit, citrusy and spicy hops. FLAVOR- semi-dry, bitter, tropical fruit, finish is somewhat hot due to chilli. Medium to full bodied.
Very good one, but, unfortunately, fruitiness is a bit overhelmed by the chilli.

Can from BCS. Pours a clear orange copper with a 2 finger head of foam that lingers. Big mango notes in the nose with some light papaya, passion fruit and chilli peppers. Complex on the palate starting with mango like sweetness, then a light tartness and finally some slight heat in the finish. Bitterness is noticeable throughout but not overbearing. Very complex IPA with a lot going on...like a good bowl of tom yum kun. Delicious.

650ml bottle @ Brewdog Helsinki. Pours reddish orange with a small head. Aroma of caramely malts, berries, spices, tropical fruits and hints of zesty notes. Taste is smooth, slightly malty and hoppy with some hints of spices, tropical fruits, zesty lime and mango. Finish is dry, tropical fruity and resinous malty with hints of caramel, berries and mint. Not your typical IPA.

65cl bottle @ BrewDog Helsinki. Aroma is sweetish with tropical fruits, caramel and some berries. Flavour has tropical fruits, grapefruit and mild mint tones. Finishes with some herbal bitterness that becomes too harsh at the end of the glass.
