Mielenkiintoinen konsepti, jos ei muuta. Kyse siis siitä, että jokaisessa erässä humalalajikkeet vaihtuvat ja jokainen erä on siten ikäänkuin uusi olut. Tämä ensimmäinen erä on väriltään utuinen, noin puolen sentin vaahtokerroksella. Tuoksu on maltainen ja varsin marjainen. Maussa maltaisuutta ja kevyttä katkeruutta aavistuksenomaisella marjaisuudella höystettynä. Lisäpiste mielenkiintoisesta ideasta. En tosin tiedä, miten usein erät vaihtuvat, juuri nyt on tainnut tulla ensimmäinen erä kauppojen hyllyille. SOPP:ssa Helsingissä tämä tuli kuukausi sitten maistettua.

330ml can, vertical with batches 1-3.
Pours clear orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of biscuity notes, earthy and grassy notes, hints of herbs and hay. Taste is smooth, crisp and grassy with some hints of hay, herbs and earthiness. Finish is earthy and grainy with hints of hay, grass and vegetables. A bit weird hop profile here. --- Beer merged from original tick of Brewer's Special Joker Hop Ale on 07 Nov 2015 at 19:37 - Score: 5. Original review text: Erät 1-3 vertikaalina.

An slightly orange colour, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has fruitness, bread/biscuity maltyness, caramel and herbal hops. Taste has bread, some overriped fruitness, the bitterness is at most medium, the end is empty. Almost medium bodied. Not too fresh and the hoppyness isn’t very succesfully.

Golden color, small white head. Grassy, harsh aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Harsh and grainy flavor. Where are the hops? Probably not very good combination. The weakest beer I had at SOPP 2015.

(Can, 0.33 l, at SOPP Helsinki 2015) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, citricness and spiciness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, vegetables, sweetness, herbalness and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. An interesting combination of hops.
