Bottle shared at work. I totally get the concept here, and the result is not half bad. It’s just the NE characteristics totally kill the lager feel here. The classic German hops is a nice touch tho.

Bottle, koszi szepen Petra! Pours opaque orangeish with white head. Nose and taste are nice fruity hops, intense tropical fruits too with just a hint of bitterness to make things interesting. Great creamy body, soft carbonation. Decent, tho not too NEish.

Can at home. Pours murky orangeish golden with a white head. Nose is a bit stale, hoppy but rather sweet and not at all refreshing. Tastewise it’s much better: the hop character is more intense and pleasant, it’s both sweet and bitter. There’s some candy, pineapple, stonefruits and grass. Closes a sweetish hoppy finish, has a rather thick body and soft carbonation.

Can at home. Pours murky deeper golden with a white head. (Seeing photos of it freshly/from tap I'm not quite sure it doesn't show oxidization, but hey.) Nose is intense, sweetish candy-like fruityness, something that's pretty common for BYM IPAs, even if this was not as good as those usually are. Taste is again this fruity, candy-like sweetness with some cantaloupe and grass. Closes with a long lasting sweetish finish, has a nice and thick, somewhat creamy body and soft carbonation.

Bottle at home. Murky golden pour with a white head. It's citric, grassy and moderately fruity, not your usual NE hop-profile which I wouldn't even mind that much, but the finish is way too dry and hence rather bitter too. The body is nice and moderately creamy as well, so no complaints here. Not a bad beer by far, but not exactly what I'm looking for in a NEIPA either.

Bottle at home. Pours red with no head. Nose is raspberry with citric notes, some lactic sourness. Taste is tart, there's some raspberry and lime and the finish is bready malty. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Not bad at all, but kinda one dimensional and simple all in all.

Tap at Kraft, courtesy of the First crew. Blackish deep brown pour with an off-white head. Nose is dark malts, coffee and vanilla. Vanilla latte basically. Taste is sweet malty, chocolatey with hints of coffee and vanilla and faint booze. Closes with a ling lasting vanilla coffee finish, has a light to medium, somewhat creamy and silky body and soft carbo. The aroma and taste are quite aight but the body is too thin. Otherwise decent.

Bottle shared at home, koszi Petra! Pours hazy golden with a white head. Nose is tropical fruits, lime peel and tangerine. Taste is sweetish notes upfront, showing tropical fruits, candied apricot, tutti frutti and citruses. In the finish there’s a surprising amount of bitterness and it also dries out quite a bit. Not bad at all but the bitterness is too much for the style imo and could do with more body as well.
