Tap at Birrimini, in Rimini, Italy. Pours golden, fairly transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is piney, citrus. Body is a little denser than average. Taste is medium bitter, with a good sweetness base behind. Final is average, with some more bitterness.

Hazy yellow gold with a bubbly white head and a mellow citrus hop and caramel malt aroma. Fresh, fizzy and a touch fruity, dank hop bitterness, citrus orange and caramel malt sweetness, finishes fresh and bitter.

Dorada, turbia de buena espuma blanca de retenciรณn correcta. Aroma lupulado resinoso notas frutales. Buen paso en boca con cuerpo moderado, tono ligeramente oleoso, suave al paladar. Amargor pronunciado creciente y sabor lupulado, notas resinosas herbales se imponen a las frutales (pomelo principalmente)

opalescent golden colour, large, dense ivory head; aroma of pine needles, pine resiny, grapefruity, some marmalade, dough-like yeasty, yeast extract and caramel notes; taste of hoppy bitterness with intensive oily-resiny, grapefruity, some candy-sugary, biscuity, slight marmalade and...very intensive hoppy bittery taste again even in the aftertaste; great west coast IPA

Old rating from 15-11-16 - A 330ml bottle, found and brought from a Irish shop in the Southern Brittany town of Vannes. France. Yes random. It pours a hazy bright orange colour with a thin frothy white head. Aromas of Intense fruit, citrus, tangerines, grapefruit, lemon & hints of yeast. Medium bodied. Tastes of Bitter citrus zest, tangerines, grapefruit & lemon again with some grassy hops and a touch of herbal. Aftertaste is of lots of hops in a bitter zesty hopped finish with the alcohol well hidden. Overall a excellent beer.
