Despite the crudeness it’s tricky to make an effective molotov surprise. Despite its unruly nature it’s tricky to resist a game of fruit themed beer roulette – spin the wheel of evil Twin cause you’re in for a fruity surprise.

Solid, tall, well laced white head on clear light amber body. Nose features fruit rind, biscuit malt and grapefruit. Typical deep, astringent, rindy hops lead the taste profile. Lighter fruity notes work with rich malt and some honey sweetness to balance under the bite. That lighter fruity element sets this one apart from the core MC stream. Very nice

330ml can at Yolo, Bangkok. Poured a hazy orange amber colour with a bubbly round white head. The aroma is grainy malt, boozy alcohol, light grapefruit citrus. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter, with a crisp, warm, light tart grapefruit, warm burning alcohol bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. The warm burning alcohol dominates this beer. It’s hard to taste anything else.

Burk strömmensberg. Klassiskt rostfärgad halvgrumlig dipa. Man kan också påstå den är halvklar. Doftar mest hav = fräscht. I munnen typisk lätt känsla (vattnig konsistens) som alltid från bryggeriet . Fruktig av gröna äpplen, grape och dadlar. Rätt söt vilket också är typiskt för detta bryggeri . God tripple ipa. Drickes jävligt kall såklart annars blir det sjukt sött och alkoholaktigt. Men det vet du ju som dricker tripple ipor. Varför ger jag inte högre betyg då? Jo lite väl sockersöt

Craft Old Street. Keg. Big thanks to the staff for checking the keg labels. Hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light smooth malts, light creamy sweetness. Bitterish mid. Juicy pineapple and yellow grapefruit. Touch of orange peel. Light dry bitter finish. Definitely better than it's horrid sibling - batch 2 but still hard edged. A bitter Lilt! Long spicy bitter linger.
