330ml bottle. Pours clear amber with no head. Aroma is raspberry, malt. Taste is fruity, slightly sweet, next to no bitterness. This would pass as a fruit beer. Not an APA, however. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

330ml bottle. Pours slightly cloudy amber with a small off-white head. Aroma is caramel and malt, light hoppy notes. Taste is sweet and caramelly, low bitterness and low hops. Not bad, but not a very believable IPA. I've tasted hoppier lagers. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle @ home. Dark golden colour with a nice white head. Smells malts, pilsener. Tastes like a pilsener but with less carbo. Super easily drinkable and okay, but not an ipa.

330ml bottle. Very malt forward, with plenty of biscuit notes. A little grassiness, orange, little acidity. Nice crisp finish. Not great.

33cl bottle from Viking XPRS. Pours clear deep golden to amber with a somewhat short-lived head. Rather malty and caramelly aroma with some fruity notes and hints of citrus and herbs. Medium sweet and not very hoppy with a fairly light bitterness. Completely drinkable, but far from a decent IPA in my book.
