Bottle at home. Clear amber color, full sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, iron, metallic, somewhat sweet and maybe some nutty caramel influence? Decent body, average carbonation. Oh well. Drinkable. 6-3-6-3-12.

Bottle from Benzai (Euro Swap), many thanks! Pours dark orange with a frothy, egg shell head. Grassy with orange marmalade, somewhat floral with a clear bitterness. Bordeline resinous, but balances on the sticky caramel and marmalade bitterness. I quite like it.

helder koper met fijne witte kraag, aroma van gras, stro, hooi, hop, citrus, grapefruit en wat ananas. smaken zijn zwak zoet, redelijk bitter, wel wat dun/licht, maar wel een NL brouwer die een redelijk hopbittere IPA neerzet, moutig, en wat caramel, grassig, den, ok
Zo eindelijk weer eens een Nederlandse brouwer die een hopbittere IPA neer zet, gras, grapefruit, 3.5 reeten Thx Edo V.

0.33 l bottle from 'Sterk Avondverkoop', best before September 2019. Slightly hazy, orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, off-white head. Sweetish, fruity-resiny and slightly grassy aroma of mango, orange jam and pine. Gently sweet, pretty malty, slightly bitter, fruity-resiny and slightly grassy taste of orange jam, pine and some mango, followed by a short, gently bitter, rather resiny and a bit grassy finish. Medium to full body, almost creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Straightforward, rather classic IPA, pretty good!
