Draught@HBF2018. Hazy orangeish amber colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is fruity, some spruce, alcohol and mild gluelike sweetness to it. Flavour is fruity, some alcohol, sweet malts and mild toffee to it. Smooth grassy bitterness. The alcohol kicks through a bit too much.

On tap at Oluthuone Kaisla, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out earthy and citrusy hops, some spiciness, and bready notes. Flavour is very earthy and malty, with bitter earthy hops, followed by some citrus, bready malt, and a bit of oxidation. Hops don't taste that fresh, but maybe they're just not put to good use. Not a great IIPA, but it's not disastrously flawed.

(Keg at Sidewalk, 20180421) The beer poured deep amber and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, pine and alcohol. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, sweetness, alcohol, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A bit unbalanced hoppy brew. Also, the taste was surprisingly thin.
