Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Bottled (backlog). Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is caramel, honey, some mild nectar and mild wooden notes. Also a slight strange sweetness to it. Flavour is sweet malty notes with some mild "blood/metallic" notes, floral and fruity notes with mild yeast and some strange sweetness to it.

Bottle. Strange... infected, very sweet. Semi hoppy. Is this really an IPA? Rather drinkable tough.

33cl bottle as a gift. Pours clear deep golden to amber with a modest white head. Strange floral and confusing smell, this was what again? Indian Pale Ale? Not India Pale Ale? Well, confusing malty and slight bready aroma with lots of floral notes, some citrus, caramel and strange, sour berries. Strange flavours, strange mixture and quite unique - at least I haven’t tasted anything like it before. Wouldn’t call or guess that it was IPA, more a strangely flavoured lager. Fairly sweet with a fairly strange acidity that is more dominating than the bitterness. I have tried worse beers lately, but this is in a way more puzzling than horribly bad. Almost makes me want to try it again - then preferably another batch. Just for the fun of it. Wouldn’t recommend this to anyone, but... Hmmm. [BB: 04.03.2016]

Pours clear, a bit of foam. Looking OK. Aroma is actually not that bad. Has some hop character and although it doesn’t really feel like IPA, it can pass for a decent ale. Some "Viru Õlu-like" iron shining through as well. Taste is.. I wish I didn’t taste it. Sweet and sour horror. Why am I doing this to myself?

0,33L bottle. Pours clear amber with small off-white head. The head stays for a moment. Aroma is sweet, sour, citrus, dill pickles. Flavor is more dill pickles, some citrus, some sweetness and bitterness. Finish is dry and citric bitter. Body is watery. Some alcohol is noticeable. Overall: not good even by macro beer standards.
