(Keg at Bruuveri, 20131213) The beer poured pale golden ans clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and cirticness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, wort, fruitiness, grass and bitterness. Afteraste was grassy and bitter. Tasted like a combination of zwickel and pale ale which was really confusing.

Clear copper color, small white head, some lace. Malty, woody hoppyness in the nose. Medium-bodied. Clean malty flavor with light fruityness and late bitterness (perhaps alcoholic bite?). Bockish, quite different Bruuveri beer. Likeable.

Slightly hazy golden color, good creamy off-white head. Fresh "green" hoppyness and some fruits in the nose. Medium-bodied. Nice clean hoppy-malty flavor. Good lingering bitterness. Very good and my favourite brew at SOPP 2013.

Slightly hazy orange color, good creamy off-white head. Wood, marmalade, some citrus. Medium-bodied. Sweetish marmalade, pineapple, alcohol and citrus in the flavor. Not the most solid DIPA from Bruuveri, but ok.

Tap@Bruuveri Slightly hazy yellow color, good steady white head. Weak aroma has fruityness - lychee, pine. Medium-bodied. Sweet fruity flavor ... odd tropical fruits. Grapefruit, ginger, resin. Quite a mess. Perhaps not the best keg? (6/3/6/3/12 3.0)
Tap@SOPP

Draught@Bruuveri Slightly hazy reddish amber color, lots of foamy, big pinky head. Aroma is a bit funky, berryish and tartish. Light bodied. Funky notes also in the flavor! Barnyard, tart cranberry, short finish leaving tart berry aftertaste. Probably better than "originally" with funky vibe.
