Bottle re-fermented and naturally gluten free, this is an elegant and classic IPA.
Amber red in colour with a mix of herbal and pine aroma, a full mouth feel of the special hopping is unique for this IPA.

500ml bottle. Hazy amber body under a moderate beige head. Strange taste of rhubarb and sweet malts. Disjointed taste of caramel and rhubarb. Dry ending. Strange indeed (shared by djoeye, Tromsø 20.04.2015).

Bottle from some Alko in Finland. Pours slightly cloudy in an amber color. Thin nose. A bit dull in taste, but I guess that also comes with the special gluten-free ingredients. It was a nice experiment, but this one’s not for me.

Dark nut brown color, small beige head. Aroma has resin and odd spicey smell. Medium-bodied. Flavor has similar awkward spiceyness. Even some tart juicyness. It also has some caramel pine and resin. This is like a decent IPA with very odd off-flavors.

Bottled (from Alko Prisma, Vaasa). Amber colour nice mediumsized off-white foamy head, that leaves some lace. So far so good. Aroma is some toffee, mild tropical fruits, grass, grains and mild rubbery notes. Flavour is rubbery, grainy, grassy, mild fruity and floral notes and some metallic notes. Aroma and flavour aren’t that good, and especially the metallic notes makes this rather harsh

A dark brown beer with a big bubbled, small and beige head. The nose has tropical fruits, citrusfruits, fructose and even some strawberries. Taste is tropical fruity at the beginning, mangos, then slightly rough and the end is herbal ang tight. Quite light bodied and slightly harsh to drink that decreases the enjoyability with the tight taste. Weird body with weird incredients but succesfully hoppyness.

Fruity aroma with apricot and tropical fruits. Also grapefruit and hints of gooseberry bush. Flavour has grapefruit, some gooseberry bush, aggressive hops and odd, plastic off-flavour. Rather nice for a glutein-free beer. A hop bomb unexpected.
