Bottle@yesprs - Orange pour with white head. Sweet tropical and citrus fruity with some notes of grapefruit, tangerine, some citrus peel, sweet caramel malty base, nice solid bitter hoppy into the close. Solid.

Bruin troebel bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is erg bitter hoppig en krachtig met iets van hars, dennen en zwarte thee. Erg fijn bier maar helaas mist het de fruitige of kruidige bijsmaak die naar mijn mening ook bij een goede IPA hoort. Voor de echte liefhebber van bitter bier.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, bright orangey golden colour with average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Intense, citrusy and tropical fruity, slightly piney, hoppy aroma, pale malty background, notes of peach, apricot, mango, some orange and lemon, a touch of lemon zest and candied orange peel. Taste is moderately bitter, piney, slightly grassy and fruity hoppy, almost peppery spicy notes of grass, white pepper, hay, widely disguised hints of apricot and peach, some bitter orange peel. Wow! This is probably the best in the whole SHIPA series so far. Well done, Mr. Wesseloh!

0,33 l bottle, 2019 version, purchased at their Lagerverkauf on fridays. Unclear red golden in the glass, frothy and steady two finger pale tanned head. Intensive fruity hopy smell, tropical, pine, licorice, honey. Taste starts with a strong hop bitterness. More licorice than fruity elements. Increasing bitterness in the second part. Great strong stuff.
