Hazy tan. Massive lemon, papaya, grapefruit hop nose. Rich, earthy hops, backing pale malts just the happy side of chewy, deep resiny bitterness. Awesome.

Cloudy and pale. Medium head. Huge lychee and passionfruit nose. Clean pale malts, Kumquat, pommelo, papaya...awesome hop fruits. Perfect pale malts provide structure for the hop showcase. Drinks exceptionally well - several pints in the bitterness had not built up on the tongue yet. What is this sorcery?

Hazy light tan. No head. The aroma is fresh bready but not hoppy. Bitter, lean. Kind of a Pilsner character.

Had this at Cerverjaria da Vila. Golden with a slight haze and a big head. Aroma is hoppy, with nectar tropical hops. Lots of bitterness, sweet pale malts, fresh apricot, mango and pear. Almost herbal dryness in the finish; I could drink a lot of this (and did).

Yeasty, pale, with medium bitterness, pale malts...quite yeasty on the palate. Off-dry finish. Mostly like an apa, though they insist it’s an IPL. Either way, another bright hoppy beer from a brewery that does it well.

Hazy light amber. Big head. Hoppy, coriander-forward. Has a rich hop bitterness and a ton of coriander. Bitter and refreshing.
