355 ml bottle from Systembolaget poured into a snifter. Slightly hazy golden amber colour with a thin off-white head. Fruity aroma with citrus - grape, caramel malts, and floral hoppy notes. The taste is bitter. Very bitter. Full body. Bone dry and bitter finish with lingering citrus. Lacks somewhat finesse. Raw, very hoppy.

Bottle from the Mercator in Dalmatinova, Ljubljana. Eurocunt version brewed in Netherlands, prolly by Heineken. Crystal clear amber body, off-white head. Caramelly aroma, some citrusy undertones, but fairly dead. Caramelly, lean, dry taste, resin perhaps, ending bitterish, some hoppy tartness. Well, my senses are slightly dead and I *will* rerate but this appears to be a laughable fascimile of a beer that's usually considered to be a very good IPA, especially for a macro one, at least in the US... Oh well..

0.33 l bottle shared with Marko, thanks. Clear golden, small off-white head. Piney, resiny, herbes, cardboard, grain. Candy. Light body, drinkable, moderate bitterness. Some sweetness, maltiness. Light finish. Not in the best shape but not bad.

On tap at Up Down Minneapolis. Pours a near clear gold with a yellow hue and a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has sweet citrus and a bit of mango with light grains and a slight soapy note. Flavor has lots of sweet citrus and sweet grains with some mango and earthy tropical fruits backing.

Poured from 12 fl oz bottle (2022 vintage). Black with small beige head. Lots of wood, rye, chocolate malt, slightly rough around the edges, but enjoyable.

Can from Nugget Market in Woodland, CA. Pours hazy perry color with a slight white head. Did some fizzing. Aroma has pineapple and a touch of allspice. Med body. Flavor - scratch the pineapple and substitute grapefruit zest with a little lime. Keep the spice. Juicy but fairly dry. Spice and zest for bitter. Heat not detected by me.

En vaso shaker. Color dorado ambarino con destellos anaranjados, sin turbiedad alguna, espuma blanca bien retenida. En nariz tira a hierba, campo, algo de fruta tropical, malta, caramelo, y un puntito de establo. En boca es de cuerpo medio a ligero, acuosa, amargor medio pero bien presente (notas de pomelo, endivias...) notas dulces y resinosas (Malta, mango...) Tiene un toquecito de cuero que roza lo vaquero esta IPA, puro west coast, para mi la antesala de la locura lupular XD. Ideal para maridar con marisco y comida picante.
