Bottle [from Euro Local Swap 2018-3 thanks to Rouhlas] @ home. A bit unclear yellow orange color, medium sized white head. Aroma and flavor both are decently malty, nicely hoppy, but carbonation is a bit high and lightly annoying. Overall good though.

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2018-3 thanks to Rouhlas] @ home. Clear dark orange color, huge fizzy foamy white head. Aroma is incredibly hoppy, even more lovely is that's it's not full off (tropical) fruit hops but it has the traditional hops. Lovely. Flavor is similar: in the flavor the traditional hops also prevail over other flavors. The malt base is there but being dominated by the hops. The only thing that annoys me is the (too) high carbonation. Gets in the way of the flavor. Decently bitter, mainly hop bitter finish. Very solid beer. Thanks Nikos!

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2018-3 thanks to Rouhlas] @ home. Super murly ugly pale muddy yellow color, medium sized white head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is pleasantly hoppy, citrussy, fruity, a bit blossomy hoppy. Flavor is lightly sweetish hoppy with plenty of citrus hops as well. Quite pleasant imo. Decent body and carbonation. Nice.

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2018-3 thanks to Rouhlas] @ home. Clear dark orange color, medium to full sized a bit rough white head that lasts for a decent while. Aroma is lovely fruity, tropical fruits, lightly resin. Taste lightly malts, fruity a bit, again resinous and nicely bitter. Yeah I like it!
