For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Backlog November 2013. Dark amber body under a small off-white head. Aroma seems to have this kind of sweetness with malt, dry fruit and caramel. Taste is sweet like aroma with malt, caramel, dry fruit and low bitterness. Fine body with long, lasting sweet aftertaste. Nice.

Can @ home. Slightly unclear golden body under a fine white head. Mild aroma, some pale malt, hint of citric fruit, wheat and a touch of spicy yeast. Taste is mild as well, soft, light pale malt, hint of wheat, hint of citric fruit, slightly spicy yeast and OK bitterness. Balanced body with a relatively short aftertaste. Decent beer, but not very exciting, not much going on really. And where did the wheat IPA come from? Can’t see anything regarding this in the description, this is not a very typical wheat nor IPA. Perhaps a hoppy American wheat?

Bottle @ home. Almost clear golden body under a disappearing, medium sized white head. Aroma of grain, an herbal touch and typical Sorachi Ace hops. Taste is very smooth pale malt, grain, herbs, fruity chewing gum (Sorachi Ace) and moderate bitterness. Balanced, quite light body and same aftertaste. An unusually but interesting choice of hops for a lager, but it works out great and I like it.

Taste is quite sweet with malt, sweet fruit, orange marmalade, a touch of toffee and balanced bitterness. Rich body with a sweet and bitter aftertaste, hint of honey in the finish. Decent, theoretic quite bitter IPA that balanced out with sweetness and alcohol.

Bottle @ home. Slightly unclear golden body under a quite fast disappearing white head. Aroma has oranges, lemon, oak and funk. Taste is soft malt, lemon, oranges, a touch of wood and mild funk. Medium acidic and some sweet malt is left to make a fine balanced against the acidity. Aftertaste is sweet and acidic with lemon and oranges marmalade. Nice and refreshing.
