Hazy golden-amber colour with a white frothy-bubbly head, decent retention and some foamy-soapy lacing left. Big grassy, herbal hoppy aromas over citrusy, light malty nose. The taste shows a little more citrus zest and good dryness in the end. It is not bad, but not the juiciest, with the hops being on the punchy side.

Hazy golden-orange colour with a smaller, fizzy white head that does not last so long, but a thin coating on the brew. Tiny particles are found through the beer. Herbal aromas of grassiness, light mints over citrus in the background. The grassy-herbal-light-mintiness continues in the flavours, freshening up the mouth. Light bitterness comes in the end, and dryness lingers. Hints of apricot do show up in the nose. A nice Hazy IPA that is not so much on the juicy-side, but more on the hoppy, bitter side of things.

Hazy golden colour with a frothy white head, average stay and a soapy ring left. Lemon zest aromas with some juiciness from citrus and other tropical fruit hints, slight herbal touch. The mouthfeel is juicy with a light dryness in the end. The flavours are citrusy again with the tad tropical fruits. Nothing too offensive, punchy here, just refreshing, easy-drinking juicy IPA.
