clear dark yellow, smooth white to slightly white-yellow head.
full spectred hoppy aroma, grapefruit and pine, but not as heavy and strong as I had expected. the malts are average, not crisp nor buttery, there is a tiny bit of sugary sweetness, and a tiny bit of flowery notes. A classic ipa aroma, very clean, but not as heavy as the high ABV might have forewarned.
bitter hoppy flavor, herbal and citrus fruity bitterness, malty sweet base that makes the beer more solid, but not the perfect malty base, has some sweetish boozy notes that leads me to think of sweet european strong lager.
all in all a decent double ipa, but nothing special.

hazy yellow, huge creamy light yellow head. looks really good
super nice aromatic citrussy hoppy aroma, very clean , good body, there's this craft brew sensation about this hoppy aroma. Also it's not brutl, it's just super well balanced and hints of a quenching full bodied beer.
flavor is crisp and hoppy, almost as crisp and dry as a lager might be, the hops and malts are well balanced, and the beer is extremeley quenching. You could have way too many of these on a sunny day. really good stuff.

pours dark brown to maghoni brown, settles guinness near black wit h a smooth small brown head. aroma is quite solid and dominated by tonka beans, but also chocolate, roasted malts, brown sugar, vanilla.
flavor is tonka beans, roasted malts, coffee, a bit of smoked malts or hard roasted malts, cheap dark chocolate, bitter coffee in the end. palate is a bit thin, but fitting for a 4.3%er, A lot of flavor, perhaps a little bit too much from other stuff than roasted malts. As lowish alc stouts go, this is a fine one, easy drinking and quite tasty, certanly more character than a guinness, but also comes off as a tiny bit thinner.

strong aroma of sunburnt beer and cheap hops. flowery note that is okay nice,sweet malty note. I can't help thinking this smells like a really cheap supermarket beer. flavor is metallic hoppy bitter, watery, alcohol can be tasted cause the malts are quite weak, white bready note, end is alc and bitter tasteless sun-beer ish hops. not a very good beer in any way.

west coasty hoppy aroma, subdued bitter, quite juicy but not overly fruit juicy, pretty good but somewhat mildish and introvert.
really nice, very seriously hoppy and malty flavor, quite along the lines of west coast ipas and stronger hazy ipa's, the flavor is intense and well balanced imperial malts and imperial hops. end is not that bitter, but more grassy-herbal. the malts are somewhat sweet but match up well with the rest, overall flavor is seriously hoppy double ipa.
This is a world class double IPA. Probably even great if you're not totally sold reg. hazy ipa's. likely best beer from the brewery that I have tasted.

pours very dark brown, settles guinness black/very very dark brown, with a very smooth creamy head.
aroma is strawberry dark chocolate cake.
flavor is roasted malts, fruity note, dark chocolate note, strawberries into the aftertaste, far aftertaste has roasted malty and coffee bitterness that lasts.

sweet floral aroma, somewhat artificial, wheaty base. in a way refreshing, like perfumey french wheat beers or lemonade. also subtle notes of wild yeast, like belgian ale. while the initial impression is flavored shitty wheat, the belgian yeasty notes win over and it ends up as interesting belgian yeast driven wheat experiment. So a likeable aroma after all, just needs a bit of time.
rhubarb pale red/yellow, white head. unclear with particles, probably yeast. This is expected in a wheat ale.
flavor is fairly harmless belgian yeast and wheat driven ale, with only subtle notes from the aronia and hyldebblomst they added. there is some nice hoppy bitterness that keeps it refreshing, although the hoppy end gets a bit too herbal, not aromatic hoppy. In the end, this is a crazy belgian yeast driven wheat ale, if you like weird, it's fairly okay - and it tastes like micro or traditional belgian, with all the character you'd expect.

pours clear brown, selttles very dark brown with a light brown creamy head.
quite nice aroma of tobacco, roasted malts, coffee, and a bit of lacto.
flavor is roasted malts, coffee, tobacco, hard roasted malty ending, subtle hoppy balance that builds on the malty ending into the far end. Very very good subtle tempered porter, well done all the way. Quite a lot of flavor for 7%ish abv.

Aroma is grapefruity and piney hoppy, not very strong, about medium hop strength. In the aroma i get bitter and rounded bordering slightly buttery malts. The beer is hazy with a white head. there is a tiny bit of hazy-ipa-"burnt" hops notes in the aroma.
Flavor on the other hand is delicious, very hop forward, good rounded malty balance - not so crisp, but flavor is well composed, the hops are grapefruit and pine and there is a long grapefruit/pine aftertaste. finer notes of citrus fruits. never gets bittersweet. pretty good stuff, west coasty in flavor.
Found this in a meny supermarket. Very good supermarket beer ;-)
