Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home, we had nduja meatballs in a rich tomato sauce in the wood oven, after a day of gardening, it's been a very warm day it was up to 25c but getting much colder now so we're back inside. Pours black with a head that rapidly departed, there's a big coffee nose which translates into the flavour, thickness in the mouth, is there lactose??? I'm liking the big coffee hit, mouthfeel and roastiness but it's not perfect. Score: 7.0

The beer poured orange and hazy.
Aroma of grapefruit and dankness. Citrusy dominates, suitable sweetness. Lovely grapefruit. Solid.

Thanks hermod! Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is oaty, some porridge, mango, grapefruits and citrus with some mild peppery tones. Flavour is porridge, mango, grapefruits and citrus. Fresh, but still doesn't make (D)NEIPA more enjoyable. (Canned 28.4.2026, enjoyed 1.5.2026).

Can at home shared with Laura. Murky pale yellow color, full sized white head. Aroma is lightly malts, sweetish tropical fruity. Flavor is lightly malts, again quite sweet tropical fruity. Hmm nothing too special but a decent drinkable IPA. In nothing a DIPA like I want it though.
