Bottle 33 cl. Pours a cloudy, opaque, grayish golden with a lacing, off-white head. Subtle, fruity nose with very discreet hops. Medium body, very soft mouthfeel, spicy, tropical hops but everything is very muted and subdued. Hardly any bitterness. Far from bad, just rather underwhelming. 280925

6.9/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Bottle @ home. Clear golden body under a nice, lacing off-white head. Aroma has clean malt and ripe citric fruits. Taste is smooth, sweet malt, some citric fruit, hint of toffee and balanced bitterness. Medium body with smooth and slightly bitter aftertaste. A fine, straight forward easy drinkable classic beer in the crossing between pale ale and IPA.

0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeershop.com', best before April 2026. Hazy, golden orange with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Intensely fruity-floral, a bit dank aroma of passion fruit, pineapple, quince and some gooseberry. Slightly sweet, very fruity-floral and a little dank taste of passion fruit, pineapple, some gooseberry and hints of quince, followed by a short, gently bitter, slightly dry finish. Medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Pleasantly fresh and fruity IPA, very well-balanced and quaffable.

0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeershop.com', best before May 2026. Hazy, golden orange with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity-floral and a little dank aroma of mango, orange, some passion fruit and light green peppers. Gently sweet, moderately bitter, rather fruity, slightly resiny and a bit dank taste of mango, orange jam, passion fruit, tangerine, grapefruit and some pine, followed by a short, quite bitter finish. Medium to full body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Really nice DIPA, probably one of the best Hopfenreiter variants, refreshingly fruity but also quite crisp.
