Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Beer in the glass zippy, dark brown, nice head. Starts strong, intense malty, stouty, modest sweet. Light notes of coffee, but not much chocolate notes. Finish more dry. Nice one!

330ml bottle. Hazy, yellow-ish golden colour with average, thick, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Spicy, yeasty aroma, hints of banana, limp banana peel. Taste is bitter and minimally tart, a touch of blood orange, hints of banana in the background. A bit weird, unbalanced, inharmonious.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, orangey golden to amber colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Cautious and monotonous, fruity and fruity hoppy aroma, notes of mandarine, a touch of sweat, late but cumulating hints of mint. Taste is dry hoppy, minimally strawy, diluted hints of mandarine, a bitter, zesty touch, mandarine pips, maybe some mint; light bodied, slightly watery. Anaemic and monotonous, but a passably convenient drink for summer.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice creamy head. Starts intense hoppy, fruity like lemon, quite sourish. Malty-moldy background. Light salty hints. Finish more balanced, still sourish-hoppy. But quite drinkable. Not bad!

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one. Bottle looks simple but really good. Beer in the glass very zippy, nice head. Starts wonderful hoppy-flowery, fine grasy notes. Bitter background, not too intense. Fruity notes of lemon. Finish well balanced, dry-hoppy. Quite drinkable. A good one!

330ml bottle [5.8% abv]. Cloudy, amber colour with average to huge, thick, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, miniomally lacing, off-white head. Citrusy, hoppy aroma, some grapefruit, orange, lemon and lime, a sweaty resin touch, minimally sugary, caramel malty background. Taste is slightly bitter hoppy, slightly grassy, minimally citrusy fruity, more explicit fruity notes of red and blue berries, some flat bitter, old school German Pilsener hop notes as well. [As far as I can remember, the berry notes of their IPA have been more convincing, although they are predominant here as well. If I consider the name ("First IPA") and suspect that mine isn’t the freshest example, I’d advance the conjecture them both are brews of one and the same recipe.]

Many thanks for this bottle to Erzengel. Near black pour with a nice khaki head. Aroma is is chocolate, roast, and nutty. Taste follows the aroma with some sourness.

Great and intense chocolate-roasty. The mainpart is smooth, dry, intense malty. Smooth milk-chocolate. Roasty-deep, nuts, roasted chocolate, not too thick, great!
