Bottle. Little hazy, light amber, excellent foam. Fine hop aroma: tropical fruit, floral, a little citrus and pine. Taste: clean, citrus, fruit, light malt, good hops bitterness. Pleasant and refreshing ale.

0,33 l bottle, bottled on 12/6/2014. Clear, amber with a thin, soapy, white to tan head. The aroma is of orange, tangerine, honey and hints of caramel. Very nice but not that strong. Sweetish taste of honey and orange. Okay. Thin to medium body, a bit watery, average carbonation. Short, only slightly bitter finish. Nice beer - especially for 4.5 % - but not world class. Maybe that this beer breathed too much air in the supermarket if I read some of the other ratings.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Hogerdijk, Culemborg. AMber with a white head. Citrus hop aroma, typical amarillo aroma. Taste is less spectacular but for a 4,5 % ABV satisfying. Nice bitter.

Bottle from Tomlinsons Beer Shop, Inverness [081113] Bottled 13/09/11
Amber, clear, big frothy white head, some lacing
Aroma of old lemon citrus, light sweet fruit pale malts
Taste of old lemon citrus, light quite oily pale malts, dry lemon zest, slight grapefruit, hops have obviously dulled after this time but still a tad there and the malt background is light and sweet
Palate - Soft carb, light to medium body, quite oily. Finish - quite dry, then some oiliness, then a dry powdery dull lemon zest finish
Overall - Surprised this was any good after more than 2 years - some weakness in flavour but there’s still a bit of hop in there

Capone’s, Norristown bottle: (Amarillo and Sladek) Pours a copper color with a white head. Aroma is nice Amarillo hops, with a sort of earthy dirty edge. Taste is nice and properly bitter, with plenty of excellent hop flavour. The low alcohol did not make it too light. Flavor was still quite big.

Draught@CPH Beer Festival 2011 (thanks jbrus!). Amber colour, mediumsized creamy white head that leaves some lace. Aroma is caramel malts, rather zesty and fruity hops along with mild grassyness. Flavour is bigtime fruity, a bit catpissy, zesty and some slight maltyness. Quite bodied for a 4.5 % beer. Brutal hoppyness.
