Draft. A- Lemon, hops, resinous, pine. A- Gold color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Lemon, bitter, resin, pine, grapefruit pith, arugula. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly astringent finish. O- Maybe I haven't had anything this strong in the IPA realm in a while. Lots of bitterness that was off putting and a strong lemon cleaner flavor. Not for me.

American superstar Toppling Goliath collaborating with much less known Pinthouse in Texas for this, again, dinosaur-themed NEDIPA; can shared with Craftmember. Egg-white, very moussy, frothy, large-bubbled yet firm head, hazy apricot blonde robe with pale orangey glow. Aroma of toasted onion, roasted but unsalted peanuts, lime peel, dried apricot, Graham crackers, dried thyme, gin, dry capers, kumquat, pink grapefruit peel, pecorino romano, green mango. Clean onset, hints of green banana, unripe mango and green kiwi, softish carb, full and fluffy body; thickly doughy and cereally malts with an odd but pleasant peanutty edge, quite pronounced even, quickly soaked in oniony, grapefruity and green olive-like hops providing a mild yet persistent white pepper-ish bitterness, matching with that lingering peanutty, lightly toasty maltiness. Alcohol remains perfectly hidden. A bit of a brain teaser: this may be hazy, but in its very genetic make-up, this is nothing more and nothing less than a West Coast IPA in a hazy disguise - I was expecting one of those tropical, sultry, zesty NEDIPAs Toppling Goliath does as well as any 'true' New England brewery, but I got this blast from the past... Quite brilliant if you look at it that way.
Sweetish and malty with some grassy hops, pine, citrus and grapefruit. A bit sweet
Hoppy and fruity, quite light, a touch sweet. Orangey citrus, some grassiness, dries up towards the finish. Clean and soft, very nice.
Ratebeer Odense Summer Gathering 2023. Hazy golden with a lasting white head. Fruity citrus hoppy aroma with tangerine. Dry and fruity flavour with a touch of alcohol.

Can picked up from Kihoskh and drunk at home (24/06/2023) - hazed up golden pour with a white head. Intense juicy fruity with hits of papaya and mango, some grapefruit with citrus peel and a touch of hop spice bite, malty backbone, assertive hoppy finish. Great stuff.
