Review based on the BJCP2021 guidelines (style 21A). Can 44 cl - Batch 040722 (BBF 04.01.23). AROMA: medium-high to high hop aroma with notes of lime, fresh-green, grapefruit, mint, citrus zest. medium-low soft neutral malt background with a slightly sweet character. APPEARANCE: light yellow body and slightly hazy. low white head with low retention. TASTE: similar to the aroma with initial medium hop flavour (fresh-green, slight lime and mint). low soft and neutral malt background with slight sweetness. high bitterness with a dry and overly bitter finish. MOUTHFEEL: medium-low body with medium-low carbonation. slight astringency from high bitterness. OVERALL: an IPA with an interesting hop presentation that is overwhelmed in the flavour by a high bitterness, impairing the palate a bit.
