Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with smallish head. Aroma is bread, cracker, tropical fruit, citrus. Flavors follow--very bready, with lots of cracker/cereal. Soft mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness at the finish.

Solo cup showing pitch black with a finger of latte colored foam.
The nose shows intense notes of roasted malt with light hints of coffee, dark chocolate, and steel tank.
The palate is well but smoothly carbonated and an airy mouthfeel. Roasted malt forward with hints of steel tank.

Can at home imported from Amsterdam from J and B Craft Drinks, 4th February 24. Pours an opaque orange. Aroma is bitter pithy citrus fruits. Taste is floral, bitter forward, marmalade, pine, fresh and refreshing. Cracking IPA, interesting flavours and complexity with a great assertive bitterness

Teku showing dark gold with sparse white foam.
The nose shows intense notes of pine resin, cannabis, and grapefruit pith.
The palate is well carbonated and medium bodied. Cannabis and grapefruit pith forwardness throughout with a light pine resin background and a balanced sharp bitterness on the end.

375mL bottled December 17, 2021. Drunk at the brewery, 1/18/24. Clear blueberry juice with a pinkish head sitting at cover. Spicy, peppery, authentic blueberry with mild lactic and Brett, well-aged and nothing sharp here. Juicy, tart, aromatic, really lovely blueberry expression. Oak is strong in the background. Tart, turning lightly sour with huge blueberry acidity, juice and spice. Wow, that's a shit ton of blueberry...still a touch of acetic character sharpening things, but mostly blueberry, malt and lactic acidity. Very juicy, flavorful, intense. Interesting to use such a high gravity base, but it mostly works. Could probably use another year in barrel and/or bottle, honestly. Just too much acetic, more emerging as it breathes and warms...

Canned Dec, 2023, drunk 1/18/24, at the brewery. Seems clear, dar. Dark beige head to spotty cover. More vanilla than either lactose or roast, thankfully. Rich, chocolatey milk-like with fruity vanilla and moderate coffee character. Clean. Chocolate-vanilla cereal milk. Low but ample toast bitterness. More vanilla, soft and fruity. Lightly sweet, medium bodied, moderate attenuation. Pretty good amount of flavor for its size and the vanilla beans are dynamite. Would like no lactose but it's pretty minimal, at least.

Light yellow, almost clear, a bit of a gusher with coarse white head. Dry, light, a bit bitter, quite hoppy. Citrus and florals, soft, nice.
Very good, nice aroma, sweet notes hit initially and fade to the old Heady. Nicely done.
