Hazy amber, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and mildly crisp. Thin malts, light dry semi sweet cream. Orange peel and lesser orange juice. Mildly bitter pine and semi sweet floralness. Light dry finish. It’s a tad on the dry side but pretty drinkable.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy amber body with a thin white head. Dusty lacing. Aroma of apricot, peach and damp straw. Flavour of rusty metal, boozy apricot and tomato juice. Restrained bitterness. Medium body with a creamy texture. Soft fizz. Not bad, but the finish is a bit flat.

Bottle from Alesela. It pours clear golden with a thick white head. The nose is juicy, doughy, tangerine, mango, pineapple, candied citrus, light spice and straw. The taste is bitter, peppery grapefruit, pomelo, orange, bread, spice, some alcohol warmth, straw and earth with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Nice juicy citrus character. Nice.

Epic thnx to Stewart ! Pours fuzzy blonde, ok white head . Smell is slightly hoppy . Some corns shine trough . Overal, not an intense scent . Taste is very fresh, bit bitter , lemon-like fruityness ( no sourness, slightly sweet even ) easy drinkable . Very impressive !

Sample bottle from Jaan. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Slightly murky on the last pour. Nose - pine and citrus. Taste - grapefruit, some herbs. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture but a slightly quick finish. Overall - a decent IPA. Perhaps could use more bittering hops to increase the length of the finish.

Bottle at Cloisters. Pours clear amber, thin white head. Good hop aromas, citrus and pine, some caramel and a little yeastiness. Taste is bitter, some malt backbone. Creamy texture, bitter finish. Good.
