A totally murky, slightly orange beer, a head is quite small and blond. Aroma has complex citrus, aromatic herbs, some fructose, also hint of pineapple. Taste has mandarin, red grapefruit, some herbs, also fructose maltyness, but the bitterness is nicely drying the taste. Medium+ bodied. Fruitness, bitterness, I think Sabro is there, maybe slighly too heavy. Very good beer.

A light yellow and murky beer, a head is medium and white. Aroma has fruitness, grapefruit, but also harsh bitterness, grass. Taste has very strong bitterness, but it's dominating and almost none aromatic notes anymore, grass. Medium bodied. The very strong bitterness is positive, but unfortunately, all aromatic notes have gone. Edit 11.2.2021. Now when I have enjoyed a few can of this beer I have to give better scores. That so strong bitterness is just great.

23/1/2021. Can shared at the first Ipswich Lockdown 3.0 virtual bottle share. From CentrAle, Newcastle. Pours hazy/cloudy yellowy orange/gold with a small frothy white head. Aroma is lemon, pineapple, coconut, grapefruit, herbs, touch of spice and pine. Medium sweetness, light bitterness, touch of tart. Medium body, average carbonation. A little soapy to finish. Quite drinkable.

(Keg at Pikkulintu, 20200104) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, dark chocolate and something resembling tonka beans. Palate was full bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, dark chocolate, something resembling tonka beans sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste had burnt malts, cocoa powder, dark chocolate and bitterness. A pleasant brew with complex burnt malts notes.

Can picked up from Hoptimism website, Loughborough, Leicestershire UK. Had this at home Wednesday 30th December 2020 listening to Marc Riley on 6 Music, cooking Pigs in Blankets Carbonara. Pours murky gold/orange with a white head, really fruity with loads of citrus and pine throughout. Super juicy, super hoppy, really more'ish', this is a great beer, this despite the fact that I am completely fed up with this style.

Can picked up at Hoptimism website, Loughborough, Leicestershire, UK and consumed at home Monday 28th December 2020 listening to Craig Charles standing in for Steve Lamaq on 6 Music, about to cook the Stuffed aubergine rolls with melting mozzarella, now that I have picked up a vital missing ingredient. Pours gold with a light haze, a mid sized white head sits atop. S light perfume note, lovely bitter bite, fruity, some pine resiny touches, really good.
