(Can) Cloudy brownish yellow colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with mango, dried pineapple, orange, resin and sponge cake. Hoppy, fruity taste with notes of mango, pineapple, honey, resin, orange peel, guava and a generous citric/resiny bitterness in a finish with a slightly boozy touch. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. A bit harsh and unblanced, on the other hand tasty, with a rich hop presence. Overall, quite nice.

Excellent one. My type of hoppy beer. Pleasant round fine sweetness and a pleasant bitterness to back it up. Nice malty back and a fine fruitiness. Also citric and pine. Yummi. Mellow fine carbonation level [Can from Systembolaget in Sweden]

Canned, from Systembolaget. Cloudy deep orange colour, brief head. Fruity nose with some guava. Very sweet with medium to full body and clean, hard mouthfeel. Honey and guava. Peppery warming finish with some wheat flour. Beers like this makes me want to stop rating, and stick do drinking only beers I like.
