Tap at Craft Sukhumvit, Bangkok. Poured a slightly hazy medium amber with a thin white head and some long lasting clingy lace. The aroma is woody hop, citrus, light medicinal. The flavour is moderate bitter with a big resin hop, fruity palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Bottle. Pale amber with a white head. Aroma of mandarins, sherbet, some bread crust, watermelon, musk sticks. Light bodied, refreshing. Fruity with tropical fruit (didn’t smell all that tropical but it builds), lollies, very light bread. Bitterness is fairly low but it’s dry enough at the end that it works. Doesn’t strike me as particularly martial.

Sampled draft @ Tilburgs Bierfestival 2016. Hazy orange, only a few bubbles, looks a bit flat. Very oily hop oil nose, bathroom esoteric oil & perfume, caramel, sugar. Taste is weird tea & hop oil, tea, bland oily with sugar,.. Flat hop oil & bit too big sugar. Not really into it.

Fairly plain and light bready malt with just a touch of biscuit. Tropical/ citrus/ grassy Kiwi hops, fairly high bitterness. Solid NZ pale.

100th APA rating. Bottle. Golden color with white head. Aroma is hoppy, resinous, malty, not so much exotic fruits as expected. Taste is resinous, fruity, pineapples, toasted malts, bittersweet finish. This is probably not the freshest, but still okay. Quite intense for the ABV. I imagine this was an absolute beauty before starting its long way to Europe.
