Bottle @ home. Clear yellow to slightly orange golden color, medium to full sized white head that lasts for a long time and leaves decent lacing. Aroma is the most wonderful citrussy tropical fruit hop aroma I’ve ever smelled. Fantastic! Every session IPA has to be like this. Taste lightly malts, again lovely tropical fruit hops combined with a perfectly suitable moderate bitterness. Easy drinkable, suitable body and lightly soft carbonation. Absolutely delicious!

Bottle sample at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks Max. Clear yellow. Pleasant hoppy aroma, citric, floral, and slightly tropical. Flavor has some graininess, and decent floral and citric hops, with mild to moderate bitterness. Quite light-bodied.

Flaske 355ml fra Systembolaget Kiruna. Drukket i Skibotn 3 Aug 15. Varm gyldenbrun. Litt uklar. Middels skum som daler sakte. Aroma av mandarin. Smaken mer mandarin. Litt tørr & bitter etter hvert. Vel mye kullsyre. Litt bunnfall med en uklar siste kvelling.
