Bottle at home. Aroma of citrus, tangerine, orange, pine resin, malt biscuit, some caramel, grapefruit, hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a dry generous hoppy bitter finish. A bit boozy, especially towards the end. Body is medium to full. Rich and heavy IIPA, lots of citrus with a big bittersweet flavour.

Flarra. Doftar barr . Allmänt lite granskog med lite malt. Smakar? Woow fyllig känsla i munnen och snabbt kommer skumbananen på besök . Ja mycket tydligt skumbanan med lite äpple och en fin eftersmak av persika.. Lagom beska. Ja detta är en friktigt fyllig Dipa som smakar nästan väl mycket godis.

Pours hazy dark golden, persistent off-white head. Aroma is pure American IPA: grapefruit, mango, passionfruit, white flowers. Taste is bold, fresh, tart and very, very bitter (quite balanced, though). Very nice powerful IPA, oh yeah. You get what you bought.

Bottle from Bacchanalia, Cambridge. Golden orange, mega-hazy. A bit of white head sits on top. Piney, gluey and piña colada-y in the nose. A hint of cantaloupe and a touch of PVC. Sugary sweetness starts the taste off, and there is a near simultaneous tenacious bitter in the back of the throat. Finish is slightly unbalanced, I’d like a little less acidity. Fresh pineapple and dried banana chips in the aftertaste. A real treat despite a few flaws.

Dark golden with a white head - Fruity tropical hoppy aroma - Malt body to support a good hop profile that has tropical fruits to it and a good bitterness - The tropical fruits from the hops goes into a dry finish - This was good

Bottle. Pours gold with small white head that lasts. The aroma is pine, grass, floral. Medium mouth, grapefruit, pine, dank, nice lingering bitterness and resin finish, very good.

Bottle @ Don’t want anything to do with carnaval tasting. Lightly hazy light orange color, medium to full sized white head that lasts for quite some time. Aroma is malts, hops, some resin and lightly spruce. Taste malts, hops, spruce, resin. Medium body and carbonation. Nice one!
