Draught at Tribaun, Innsbruck
Hazy light amber color. Nice hoppy aroma, a bit fruity, but also butter. Moderately sweet, good mix of malt and hop, in the flavor, resiny and fruity, and some butter again. This would be a great beer, without diacetyl. I’m still enjoying it though.

@ La Piraña, Golden with a white head, good retention, nice lacework. Aroma has citrusy notes, resin hops with herbal hints. Flavor has a decent bitterness, citrusy, herbal, grapefruit are also present. Good bitterness in the final, some caramel. Fresh on palate.

Bottle sample courtesy of the All In crew. Pours hazy burnt yellow with a frothy offwhite head that slowly dissipates while leaving some sticky trace on the glass. Smell is slightly malty, tiny fruity, grassy and wooden with crackers, biscuits, caramel, grapefruit juice, mango, freshly cut grass, pine needles, moist soil, resinous wood, lemon zest and hints of alcohol. Taste is sweet, bitter, malty, slightly fruity and wooden. Mouthfeel is round, slightly astringent, boozy and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and bitter with caramel, biscuits, grapefruit juice, mango, freshly cut grass, pine needles, chives, resinous wood, lemon zest and hints of alcohol. Bit too boozy and wooden.

Craft Pimlico. The Italian/Irish event. Keg. With Jackie and Simon. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth with modest fine carbonation. Light malts, smooth with modest creamy sweetness. Light orange hops, trace of tropical fruits. Modest hop spice and pine. Smooth finish. Fine but not that much hoppier than the IPA!

Bottle purchased in Rome at Johnny Off L. and consumed in Kosovo with luttonm. Fresh beer. Pours amber cloudy color, more light with a medium dirty head. Nose: resin, pine needles but also grapefruit and lemonade. Ok. Mouth: certainly some caramel which I don't like that much, body stays mild and let's it drink with no problem. Too confusing the use of these hops but stays nice anyway, herbal, bit of chicory and also citric. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
