From a can, as pictured. Nice wheaty pour, some bottom gunk creates a hypnotic effect. Smell is rather sweet, almost floral. Taste is certainly wheat ale and nothing like hefe so beware. Has a heavy dose of citrus of some kind on the backslide. Something flowery too, not sure. Finish is typica,l almost rude ale impressions.

(Draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of orange peel, marmalade, toast and fresh hops. Fruity, hoppy taste with orange peel, caramel, hints of grapefruit and pine needles, toast and generous amounts of fresh, citric hops in the finish. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. Not really a hop bomb, but a well balanced and very tasty IPA. Very nice.

Tall boy can @ home. Talk boy can from Kansas? I should have saved this for our upcoming white trash night. Medium orange-brown appearance with a huge tan head. Nutty, mildly toffee, dark caramel malty nose. Fairly hazelnutty, caramel, toffee malty flavor, almost like a tasty dessert bar. Surprisingly pretty tasty. Sessionable brown ale.

Can at Oliver Twist. Aroma domiated by coffe. Taste of coffe and chocolate, finishes rather quick and thin. Like a smoother porter.

Can. Very elegant porter-like stout. Notes of coffee beans, toffee and milk chocolate. Not the most aggressive stout. The dryness in the aftertaste is quite heavy though. Well balnced and refreshing.

Received in trade from GPHarris, thanks again for the opportunity! Pours a fairly clear deep copper color with a huge fluffy white head that sticks to anything that gets in its way. Smell is floral, grassy, earthy hops mixed with sweet bread and caramel malt. Apricots and grainy malt in the aroma as well. Taste is grainy and a bit tannic up front. Sweet bready almost caramel malts come through next, then a hint of abv, followed by some resinous and citrus hop play. Long lingering lupulin in the finish. Decent brew that I quite enjoyed.

can from Zipp’s, pours dark brown to black with a medium tan head. Aroma is slightly ashy, burnt sugars, heavy roast. Flavor is mildly sweet cream and cocoa up front ending very dry and roasty, again some ash and charcoal. Very nice beer.

Can - bought this because Eugene had told me how much he liked it - turbid light orange with a thick, soapy head - looks like a hefe - nose of earthy grains, light banana, yeast, mild pepper - low carbonation - medium body, with a nice heft for the style, but still quite refreshing and quaffable - a hint of sweetness, melon, lime - mostly dry, though, with copious wheaty goodness, a bit of peppery character - lightly spicy finish - clean and refreshing - I really enjoy it - I will never doubt you again, Eugene.

Can: Tea nose with floral accents, not strong. Cloudy orange, thin yellow head. Flavor is decidedly stronger, somewhat intense for a standard IPA. Orange peel and lillies are prominent on the front end. Lemon zest and light malt on the finish. Not very unique by quality but good intensity. Level of bitterness is just right. Fundamentally sound IPA. It’s good to see an up and coming brewery master the basics before experimenting with nonsense. I admire that.
