Bottle at home. A bit unclear dark orange golden color, average sized white to off-white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, a bit sweetish fruity, but mostly bitter in the finish. Low ABV yet somewhat boozy. Okay.

Good, dense yellow head over well-carbonated, almost clear amber beer. Very nice & inviting hoparoma, with lunaria, nectarine, lupulin, green fruit, unripe passion fruit. Fresh, mild bitterness, expressly hoppy. Very faint candi sugar, green leaves & green fruit. Ever so slight astringency - the hops working. Medium bodied, very well-carbonated. This is nice! Good surprise. As to the brewers: don't call this a Belgian IPA. That epitheton usually indicates a completely failed attempt, proving the brewer knows sh*t about IPA. This is a honest-to-God REAL IPA. Txs to Stef!

Süffiger, etwas dumpfer Hopfenbeginn. Leicht süß-herb, wenig würzig, deutlich zunehmende Bitterkeit. Limette, herb-getredig, geringfügig hopfig. Kurzer Abgang. 9/8/7/8/7/8
