Description
Good in brewing beer. Bad in writing bios. Madness from Budapest challenging almost everything you know about beer. Always flawless, always bold, never boring. Not necessary business-wise all the time, but setting the standards high for ourselves every time as we truly believe in the cliché that goes like ‘the way you do something is the way you do anything’.

Can at home in Alkmaar, courtesy of the MS crew. Nose is rather citric and tart, it also got some candy notes and a hint of spruce. Taste is sweetish and malty upfront, then it shows lots of citric notes, both from the actual peels and the kveik, I reckon. Medium to full bodied which is kinda surprising from a kveik IPA. Not bad, but not really my cup of tea.

Bottle shared with Nari and Undos, courtesy of the MS crew. Uramisten de jo ez, tokeletesen hozza amit iger, edes, selymes es lagy, csokis milk stout kiegeszulve a tozeggel valami zseni kombo, es meg a habaneronak is van letjogosultsaga, pedig amugy nem szeretem a csilit sorben (sem). Testes, intenziv, kerek. Bomba.

0.33 l bottle from BeerOdalom. Deep amber color, nice thick white head but that doesnt last too long. The mandatory hops are present in the aroma but the flowery/fruity scents are more significant. The taste is just like the aroma, it’s not that bitter that an average IPA’s, but very fruity imstead. Its palate is also even more sweet than bitter. But it is not a bad thing at all. Very nice IPA.

0.33 l bottle. Deep, hazy golden color, thick white head. Strong mango aroma, the hops are not present at all. Fruits and hops in taste but it’s more fruity than bitter. Expected a stronger, longer palate. Medium body, easily drinkable. Refreshing, fruity IPA.

On tap at Főzdefeszt. I didn’t take notes while having this one, I only have slight impressions left of it. Nice, but slight aroma and taste with short, hoppy finish. Soft carbonation, light body. A bit heavier body or slightly higher ABV couldn’t have hurt. Fine brew anyway.

On tap @ Krak n’ Town. Extremely vivid hoppy, floral and fruity notes in aroma. Strong, bitter taste with long lasting finish. Light-to-medium body, lively carbonation. I’m not familiar with the NE IPA as a style so this one is a hundred percent subjective opinion.

Bottled. Zavaros, aranysarga szinu, piszkosfeher habbal. Enyhe, hefeweizenes jegyekkel bir illataban es izeben, azonban a vanillia ad neki egy kellemetlen aromat, ami sajnos negativ iranyba mozditja az osszkepet. Nem kerek weizen, viszont nem ad hozza semmi extrat. Nem az en sorom.

Bottle, koszi Marci! Nose is apricot jam, some vanilla, surprisingly some smoky touch. Taste is heavily, but not overwhelmingly sweet, there’s apricot, vanilla and a malty touch, some booze. Long sweet finish, soft carbonation, medium to heavy body. Not so cake-y, but definitely a tasty and fun dessert beer.
