Amber colour, white head. Pine and grapefruit aroma. Flavours are with (grape)fruits, bitter taste. The fruitiness makes this beer very nice.

Bottled, brought from NZ by NoiZe. Clear amber color, short head. Aroma is very fruity, citrus, grapefruit, bit flowery, hoppy ofcourse. Very flowery, bitter taste, fruity of grapefruit and some pineapple, slight mango taste in it as well. Bit thin body though, but very strong and fruity taste. Nice.

500ml bottle from Phil_L. Copper colour with thick beige head. Decent hop/malt aroma. Oddish IPA. Melon fruit. Over carbonated, odd hop, rich melon tropical fruit. Hop is a bit unbalanced, bit syrupy on malts. Just a bit odd. Nice melon/tangerine/passionfruit, but odd sickly flavour and not a great aroma lets it down. Vegetal aroma.
