Sampled at Billies day 1. Clear yellow color, small white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, nicely hoppy with a soft citrus touch, nicely bitter, citrusy bitter, well balanced. Quite pleasant. 8-8-8-8-8

Pours golden or slightly paler with a bit of haziness, still transparent enough too see through it. Medium sized, relatively dense white head; ok retention, quite nice lacing. Pretty good freshness and intensity in the aroma: citric notes (tangerine most noticeable, grapefruit also in the mix) with a hint of prickliness to them, peach, perhaps a hint of mango, nice grassy freshness with just a hint of pine/resin. There's a bit of malty sweetness/backbone in the mix, though i can't pick something specific. Tastes pretty good too, again in a nicely fresh and intense way; there's decent taste complexity, with a nice interplay of hop flavours (taste notes as per aroma), nothing really dominant. A hint of crackery malts base. Some malt sweetness, but quite neutral tastewise as the aroma suggested. As for balance: medium sweetness, medium or slightly above medium bitterness; balanced mouth, a light bitter edge in a dry aftertaste. Medium body, average to high, light bubbled carbonation; very lively in the mouth, maybe a bit too heavy/burpy. All in all still a pretty easy drinker for the abv. Nice one.

Lattina. Il gusto al naso propende per il luppolo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata, permanendo in maniera apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è carico. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. Il tetto della bocca riconosce impressioni di miele, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, frutta tropicali e pesca sciroppata.

Canned from Goblet, shared with Hrabren. Hazy golden body, off-white head. Citrus-resin combination in the aroma, bit sharp but not unpleasant. Citric, dank, resinous, maybe vaguely oniony, bit marmalade-like taste, medium body. Quite decent overall, but not thrilling.
