A brew you can drink for breakfast. A beer to reward yourself with after a hard day's work. Or if your hard day's work is mowing the lawn, consider drinking on the job. Weighing in at 4.5 ABV, Rudie begins with a big fruity hop aroma of pears and watermelon candy, but is relatively low in actual bitterness, lending itself perfectly to those moments when you want to drink beer, but need to hold it together - or not.

355ml can at Burgr in Tromsø. A remaining, bubbly white head. Crocheted lacing on the glass. A slight haze to golden body. Freshly cut grass on the nose added by citrus peel. Succulent taste of juicy fruits, hints of grapefruit and orange. Mid-dry citrus bitterness to the finish. Easy to drink. Refreshing with great session qualities (29.04.2016).

Super crisp and clear golden coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall soapy white head. Aroma of nice dank and grapefruity hops with a little citrus and a relatively high alpha acid smell for sure. Light-bodied; Strong fresh hop flavour at first with a bit of grain and malt flavour but balanced well by the light but strong hops, and all very easy to drink. Aftertaste shows light grain, resin, a touch of sweetness, but mainly a fresh and very light hop flavour that shows well. Overall, a nicely balanced Light IPA with fresh hop flavours, but very mild malts to make this easy-to-drink and incredibly smooth. I sampled this twelve ounce can given to me by my boss from Colorado Liqour Outlet in Colorado Springs, Colorado on 02-January-2016 sampled at home in Washington on 29-March-2016.

BBE 13 OCT 16 - Pours clear dark orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of caramely malts, chewy hops, hints of pine, candy and toffee. Taste is smooth, crisp and slightly sweetish with some grass, pine, resin and caramely notes. Finish is smooth, slightly hoppy and grassy with some resinous notes, caramel and sweetness. Pretty good.

(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, 30 Dec 2015) Golden amber colour with frothy, white head. Malty, hoppy nose with notes of biscuits, citrus, grapefruit and a touch of resin. Malty, hoppy taste with citrus, grapefruit, lemon peel, resin, biscuity malt and a generous citric bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Fresh, tasty and highly drinkable. Nice one.

Can from Tanakaya. Good NW style hops with citrus notes along with pine and light grain. Light bodied, but still fairly well-balanced for a session IPA. Easy drinking and really refreshing, bitter, dry finish.

12oz can from Beer52.com. Pale amber with a thin white head that provides lots of lacing; fruity aroma; berry fruit taste; with a crisp citrusy bitterness before a lasting berry finish. A pleasant and refreshing beer.

Burk från SB. Smak och doft av humle, granskott, Loranga, citrus, gräs, örter och mango. Lätt kropp och sötma, rund och len, beska med smak av grapefrukt och citrusskal. Uppfriskande och gott.

Burk från SB. Bärnstensfärgad klar vätska med medelhögt skum. Tydlig kådig humledoft, tallskott, mango, grape gräs, resin. En kraftigt humlad Session IPA. Torr, och besk. Smaken domineras av kådiga tallskott och kraftig resin och grapevite beska. Men viss fruktighet citrusfruktighet och mango ryms också. Kraftfull och stora smaker och beska för att vara en session IPA på drickbarhetens bekostnad. Men gott är det.
