About 4 euros from Alko. 5.9% great orange gold classic IPA color, complex floral hop bouquet in the atoms with tropical & citrus fruit notes. Really nice smell. The taste first is pine, then citrus followed by tropical fruits in the finish. Really well made, maybe not as nice as Dale’s Pale Ale but top knotch. Flavorful, delicious & just under 6%. My kind of IPA. If I lived in the US, this would be a good call as a go to IPA for everyday drinking. Not one dimensional but not overly complex. Great stuff!

Enjoyed on tap at Goose Island Clybourn in Chicago, IL with friends prior to attending Stout Fest 2012. This was a pretty good choice going in to a stout heavy day. Appearance is a cloudy brown amber with a rich white head. Aroma of light fruit notes, bit of pineapple mixed with citrus, very light but apparent. Taste is pretty good, definitely smooth and creamy, light bitterness, citrus notes. Pretty good IPA.
