Bottle, gusher, many thanks herrklemann! Hazy orange color with white head. Aroma is grapefruit, a bit buttery, peach. Taste is the same, with some earthiness. Oily mouthfeel, low carbonation (but the gushing took most of the carbonation away I guess). Okay.

Hazy, golden to amber colored, medium off white head, overfoaming, good lacing and lasting. Aroma is of some malt, bit dirty yeasty, citrus, floral and some fruit, moderate hoppy aroma. Taste is medium sweet malt, some caramel-crystal, citrus grapefruit and floral hops, moderate aroma and bitterness, light harshness, dry finish, touch of alcohol and warming. Medium bodied, average+ carbonation, oily. Bit harsh and the alcohol bit take it down... (bottle, Bierboutique Graz)

Bottle, 330 ml at Fassldippler, Wien. Shared with JFK10000. Deep yellow to orange, large white head. Great fruity aroma and flavor. Sweetish, caramel, tropical fruit. Long bitter finish. Close to DIPA. Great stuff.

Ein IPA, das man heutzutage als Imperial IPA bezeichen würde. Es ist durch den mit Bedacht eingesetzten amerikanischen Aromahopfen wirklich ausgeezcihnet komponiert und die bitteren und fruchtigen Noten erzeugen ein vielältiges, tolles Bild am Gaumen.

Cloudy golden with a medium white head. Aroma had pine needles, grapefruits and peach. Falvor had plenty of hops leaving notes of pine, grapefruit, peach and grapefruit. Solid body. Finished dry and bitter.

Bottle from AmmersinO, Vienna. Golden, slightly hazy body, with medium, frothy, white head, that leaves a fair lacing. Aroma of citrus, mango, pine, paired with lots of hay and grass notes. Taste is citrus, candy, grass and spices, with a medium, slick mouthfeel, strong carbonation and a citric, bitter, dry and slightly alcohol warming finish. Overall quaffable, but a bit unbalanced and for an IPA it contains too much grass notes, too less fruit notes and lacks a real hop bite. But still a good beer, that I would drink again.

Angenehm hopfiger, wenig süßer Antrunk. Süffig, etwas grasig, die Hopfigkeit steigert sich noch etwas. Leicht alkoholisch, passend. Gut! 11/12/12/11/10/11
