473ml can. Pours hazy orange with a big frothy off-white head. Aroma of ripe tropical fruits, mango, papaya. Taste is quite sweet, ripe, tropical, mango, orange, papaya, piney bitterness. Full bodied, thick, soft, smooth. Decent enough despite the sweetness.

473ml can (odd size for a European brewery!?). Pours murky golden with a small white head, not lasting too long. Very hoppy aroma, pineapple and pine, lemon. Taste of juicy pineapple, lemon, hop spice, pine needles, assertive bitterness. Medium body, soft-moderate carbonation. Superb.

Can 47,3 cl. Pours a cloudy, opaque grayish golden with a small, white head. Rather enticing, tropical, spicy hop aroma - Mosaic? Kinda light in body, a very dry fruitiness, great hops throughout - and nothing else than that, really. Clean, well crafted and super refreshing example of the style. 190319

Can at Microbar, Reykjavik. It pours crazy murky golden with medium white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, creamy, bright tropical vibes, mango, passion fruit, peach, pomelo, green and dank. The taste is dry, bitter, green, crazy dank, weedy, spring onions, chewy, toothy, floury bread, pithy, zesty, zingy citrus, pine dust, touch of tannin, tropical fruit vibes, grapefruit and pomelo with a dry, dank finish. Medium body and fine to moderate carbonation. Fuirty and dank. Wasn't quite expecting this kind of thing in Iceland. Nice work!

Keg at BD Reykjavik. It pours cloudy orange with a small white head. The aroma is wet hay, touch of sweetness, tropical fruits, mango, passion fruit and fruit cordial. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, puckering sourness, tropical vibes, mango, passion fruit, fruit candy, touch lactic and hay with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Decent enough fruit sour. Not a huge amount to it, but enjoyable anyhow.

16th March 2019 Can. Having just returned from Reyjkavik where this was recently sold out, delighted to find this imported. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth pale malts, light creamy sweetness. Smooth piney hop. Quite sweet. A little tangy bitter citrus peel. Emerging smooth pine. Light semi dry crispy finish. Good stuff from Iceland, had a another of their dipas in R yjkavik, also with a sweet malt base. Good hoppy shiza!
