22oz bottle. Poured a slightly hazy golden color with a pretty large white head. Aroma is sweet fruit notes, touch of yeast, mild hops. Flavor is okay, but something seems like it is "missing" in this one.

Poured a orange/amber color with a pretty thick white head, slowly dissipating. Aroma is a bit on the sweet pale malts side, flavor is also a bit unrefined but drinkable.

650ml bottle from Bierkompass
Pours reddish orange with a small, sticky and bubbly white head. Nice fruity and hoppy aroma with notes of exotic fruits, berries and malts. Taste is quite malty and slightly sweet with notes of exotic fruits and berries. Finish is a bit stale and sweet. A bit unbalanced, could’ve used some more bitterness. This bottle was probably from the same batch as the ratings below.

65cl bottle from Bierkompass, no BBE found on bottle. Poured sl. hazy amber color with a creamy white head, nice lacing. Aroma is sweet malt, honey and fruity notes as well as some alcohol. Flavor is sweet malt, tropical fruits. Smooth long bitter finish, also alcohol. Guessing it is quite old, as the guys from Tampere guessed here before, probably from the same batch?

65 cl bottle @ home, no BBE info
Aroma has exotic fruits, especially mango. Feels much like the IPA from same brewery, but with some stale element like ash that occurs often in pilseners. Maybe this is a bit overaged?
Flavour is hoppy and sugary sweet with exotic fruits, just like american DIPAs usually are. Also some resin and glueish alcohol does occur. A lot like the IPA from this brewery but not as good. Probably a bit too old.

Very small and disappearing head. Rather refreshing, fruity and a bit sweet aroma with exotic fruits, especially mango and banana. A bit sticky palate. Flavour is fruity with mango and hops. A bit too sweet. Rather typical american IPA, but balanced and good.

The pour produces a hazy dark yellow body that throws up a tall sticky white head that falls quickly, leaving sticky streaks all down the sides of the glass. Aroma resembles a fruit stand full of fresh cold citrus fruits. The flavor is well balanced, a touch on the bitter side. Not overpowering on the hops, but hoppier than a pale ale. Soft finish, easy drinking.

Bottle. Amber beer with a strong head. The aroma is malty, roasted and hopped, and the flavour is quite deeply malty and very well hopped and roasted. Overall a really nice strong IPA.
