Bottle at Pikkulintu, Helsinki in July 2011. Hazy orange with a large white head. Nice fruity aroma and taste, bitter but not too bitter, still rather balanced. Good beer! Long and dry finish.

Bottle. It’s a bit hazy in the glass, golden in color and with a small, off-white head on top. Lots of citrusy peel, grapefruits and pine cones on the nose, with sufficient maltyness to bring a kind of balance. The flavor has a malty backdrop, but it’s citrus peel and grapefruit that dominates, imparting a fine bitterness that goes on and on. Full body and nice carbonation. A really, really pleasant beer. 110401

Bottled. Cloudy golden, small head. Fruit nose ith grapefruit and alcohol. Very sweet with full body and syrupy mouthfeel. Sugary and boozy, massive resin ybitterness. Pleasant hops, but raw and harsh. Oversized.

Had this beer at Alvinne Craft Beer Festival 2011. Was sitting at a table with 8 other people, not of whom I was acquainted with. Ordered this beer and tasted it. Within 10 minutes everyone at my table had tried it. Says enough don’t you think? Very nice strong IPA. Try it!

Botted 500ml. -Courtesy of Marko (thanks!), shared with heavy and him.
Unclear orange coloured, medium sized off-white head, fruity jam nose. Moderate malty, very hoppy and fruity with notes of caramel and mild hint of alcohol. Grapefruity hoppy finish and long-lasting aftertaste. Great beer.

Enormous thanks to Papsoe for providing this for the Croatian crew!Poured an almost murky darker amber-red body. Agrumey-herbal aroma hops, just lovely. Apricot jam in the taste, rosehip, light bitterness, the fruitiness from the aroma hops is just brilliant, very light bubblegum apricot jam going to the aftertaste too. Perfumey, sweet but far from overbearing. Superb stuff, just lovely. The only thing I thought this lacked was just a little more bitterness, but this is a world class beer for a world class pub, a stunner that I’m damn glad to have had the opportunity to try!

Shared bottle at Pikkulintu 9.4.2011. Poured hazy orange with a thick head. Very citrusfruity, piney and hoppy aroma. Flavor was grapefruit, pine, citrus, very hoppy and bitter finish. Very refreshing, incredibly easy to drink regarding the 12%. Excellent.
