330ml bottle. Hazy, orangey, dark golden colour with small to average, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy and tropical fruity hoppy, and sugary pale malty aroma, notes of passion fruit, some mango, peach, orange, lemon, piney hoppy overtones. Taste is sweet-ish, and slightly dry, minimally oaty, pale malty, citrusy and tropical fruity hoppy, hints of lime and lemon, some mango and passion fruit, a touch of lychee. Only moderately juicy and tropical fruity for an Hazy IPA, but adequate to its relatively low abv.

Bottle with the Ratebeer München group, at Jonas's, Garching, Tuesday 26th November 2019. Pours black with a good sized cappuccino coloured head. Bitter, roasty, citrussy, good, really good.

Dark dark, with a pretty brown but quick disappearing head. Mild aroma for such a roasty beer, but the flavor is massive. Light soy, some brown sugar, nice toasty chocolate malt background, good hop notes throughout the whole taste profile.
