Bottle, thanks Marco Buraschi via anstei. Pale yellow, nearly white color with white head. Aroma is mango, grassy hoppy, slightly yeasty - fresh. Taste is fruity mango, a bit hoppy, some wheat, a bit spicy, but more in a fresh way. Medium carbonation, smooth mouthfeel. Nice and fresh, highly drinkable - a nice addition to the well-balanced lineup of the brewery.

Bottle, courtesy of Marco Buraschi. Smooth wheatiness. Fresh grassy hops. Light body with a lively carbonation, highly drinkable. Decent balance, but the finish gets low quickly with some flowers and grass remaining. A beer to drink a few after another.

330 mL bottle poured, gifted by luttonm. Thanks Matt, for supplying the majority of my recent beer rates. I could rate the ones I already have, but these are all really cool. Dark and dense copper red pour with a rocky foam head. Bold hop bitter aroma faced with an earthy malt. Flavor reverses, and relies on a sturdy malt backbone, with some grassy, slightly vegetal hops impression. The malt profile here is on point. Very tasty. Typically when I notice a solid malt bill, it turns out to be the most basic of basic bills, but that’s okay. Overall I like this. A different look into the IPA style from the fairly consistent type I regularly end up with. Refreshing to try something different. Not sure how fresh this is without a bottle date, and with me holding on to it for a short while, but I’m curious how this would taste fresh on tap. Guess I’m going to Switzerland. Fun beer here.

330 ml bottle, much thanks to Matt/Alberto. Pours a thick ink like with no head. Smokey aroma that remains one sided. Flavor is dry and a ton of tobacco character. Smokey finish. Interesting beer. Sipper. I had fun with this one.

Bottle picked up in Zurich (forgot where) Switzerland, consumed outside Frank (Camper) whilst making home made burgers at Fischers Fritz Camping, Kirchner, Nr Zurich, Saturday 25th June 2016. Pours hazy orange gold/mid amber with a mid sized steady white head. A little bit dry, fruity in the mouth with a little bittersweet grapefruit. This is a fine IPA, it’s not exciting but it’s decent enough. A7 A3 T7 P3 Ov14 3.4

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2016-2 thanks to Anstei] @ home. Clear orange golden color, medium sized off-white head. Aroma is malts, nicely hoppy, quite fruity. Taste malts, hops, grapefruit, firm bitterness. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Quite nice.
