ABV: 7.0% IBU: 30 Ticks: 20
A juicy DIPA brewed with toasted birch bark and hopped with Vista and Mosaic BBC.

Taste: Sweet overripe fruits and peach rings are balanced by a firm, birchy tannin. Freshly zested grapefruit and floral herbal character follow, with a gently sour tingle of freshly foraged spruce tips and black lime. Dank hops and a woody bitterness linger, balancing the sweet malt character.

Appearance: Hazy mandarin orange with a beige head.

Nose: Intense mango, guava, and pink grapefruit on the nose, followed by an alluring forest like aroma of fresh pears and petrichor. Fresh, juicy peach and hints of spice appear as the beer warms, with more pleasant earthiness leading you in.

Can. Hazy orange beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, a mild dryness, decent fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a good creamy sweetness. Hops are Vista and Mosaic, oh how I wish the Mosaic had been left out. Still the tangerine of Vista comes through loud and clear, apricot a little more subtle, pear very bleeding subtle. A little candy fruits that are likely Mosaic bourne. Light cooling pine throughout. Actually, despite my sarcasm, there is some more obvious tinned pear on the semi dry finish which also reveals a little hop spice and modest hop skunk. Nice IPA! C'mon! It ain't a dipa at this strength.

(Keg at Uba ja Humal, 20220707) The beer poured golden and cloudy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grapefruit, herbalness and spiciness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grapefruit, herbalness, floralness, tart fruits, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity and bitter. A decent fruity brew. Bit watery.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
