Fine white head over orange-amberish beer. Smoked, faintly roasted, New World hops. Smoked, caramel, faintly coloured malts, but also fine fruity hops. Medium bodied, slick. Not half bad. As to bloodoranges???

Good, just off-white head over clear copperish orange beer. Bit caramelly, cakebottom and aromatic New World hops. Grapefruti, again (if non-sweet) caramel, a tad dull. Medium bodied, quite slick. Not spectacular...

Small, white head over hazy, mosssy copper beer. Very aromatic New World hops, bit of rosewater, but also some valerian/cat’s pee. Spicy, bitterish flavour, greenery in the finish. Light to medium bodied; wry, near astringent finish. Good IPA, no discussion.

Pours hazy dark orange body with medium dized frothy white head. Refreshing smell of grapefruit and mango, a bit grassy with some yeast. Medium body with lively carbonation. Thick texture. IBU of 60 guarantees the bitterness of this beer, but it’s actually quite tamed and not really aggressive. Aroma of hops, fruity character with notes of grapefruit, mango and passion fruit. A bit herbal and spicy mouthfeel followed by slightly dry, long and bitter finish. Overall, textbook IPA. Good brew.

Pours hazy muddy brown body with small, slightly off-white head. It basically looks like muddy water, wtf? Smell is caramel, licorice and slight chocolate. Medium body, softly carbonated. Texture is oily. Taste is mostly bitter due to the alcohol burn. Aroma of burnt malts, caramel, licorice, chocolate, coal. Slightly ashy with strong alcohol presence. Long and bitter finish. Overall, a messy brew. Struggling to finish a bottle. 1.9/5 ============= Re-rate. First one was obviously a failed bottle. Finally got the second chance to try this out. Much better this time around. Still, I like their stout better.

Pours a dark amber color, topped with a short lived but large off-white head, Starts with a fruity aroma, later biscuity and caramel notes come out to play. Light bodied, medium bitterness with lasting aftertaste. Finishes a bit peppery. Nice one, easily drinkable and fresh.
