Bottle at Nordic Kitchen, Vantaa Airport. Pours golden yellow, some white foam on top. Nose is interestingy sweet and tropical, even flowery, really nice one. Taste however is just bitter, bit too hopped, grainy and somewhat out of balance. Still a more or less decent APA I guess, quences thirst well.

(Keg at SOPP Helsinki 2015) The beer poured golden and mildly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, tangerine and herbalness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, spiciness, malts, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was spicy, fruity and bitter. A rather weird pale ale. Not pleasant. Old score: 2.8

(Re-rate, keg at Oljenkorsi 20160506) The herbal notes that disturbed me while doing the earlier rating were almost completely gone. The beer is an easily drinkable pale ale now.
