Experience an unusual hop aroma! It features more than double the usual hops, a hop aroma that is directly transmitted to the nostrils, and a bitter taste that invites a second glass!

Clear golden with little white head. Aroma is mint, dust, orange, grapefruit. Taste is harsh bitter cracker malt with lots of mint and hoppy stuff. Easy to drink. A bit alcoholic in the finish. Not bad.

35 cl can Light amber color, thick creamy white head. Strong smell of american hops and tropical fruits. Bready malts, toasts, citrus, floral and fruity tones (tropical fruits, apricot), piney resiny hops, earth, mineral, melted snow. Taste is balanced, on the bitter end, a bit salty. Medium body, low carbonation, long bitter finish. Solid pale ale.

Tasting at Matt’s, can
Golden color, poor head. Strange aroma, biscuity malts, yuzu, corn, sweat. Smooth, moderately sweet, nice biscuity malts, strong bitterness, some lemon peel, but final with chicory bitterness.
It seems a bit off, but probably has been good earlier.

A small can at Matt’s. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Aroma is skunky, malty, some hops. Taste is similar with some smokey notes and strong piney bitterness. Not bad.

Can, pours a clear pale golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out floral hops, biscuity malt, and some skunky notes. Flavour brings out a floral hoppy bitterness, with a lot of skunkiness, some grass, and biscuity malt. Very skunky, but not too offensive. It's alright. I'd bet that this is much better from the source.
