Lore (6848) - Budapest, HUNGARY - AUG 18, 2019UPDATED: AUG 18, 2019 hazy orange colour, huge, dense, slightly yellowish white head, which lasts for minutes; aroma of lemon peel and lemon juice, dill ant tea leaves; taste has the same notes with malty sweetness (and dill-dominance) - hops are absolutely in the background, which is not a pro for an IPA even if it is 'flavored'...will not be my favourite for sure
CH-303 (4551) - Fribourg, SWITZERLAND - JUN 13, 2019UPDATED: JUN 13, 2019 Appearance: Hazy orange, small off-white head.
Aroma: Like tea, some fruits? Herbs.
Taste: Herbs and tea. I guess that's the maté. Low bitterness, lacking 'IPA' elements...

PowY (4562) - Vienna, AUSTRIA - MAR 2, 2019UPDATED: MAR 2, 2019 330 ml bottle at home, bb. 25.10.2019. Pours a hazy light amber with a large white head. The aroma is herbal, with hay and hints of lemon, hints of smoke and grains. Medium body with an average carbonation, a very light sweetness and a light to medium bitterness. The flavor starts hoppy with some citric notes which are soon overpowered by lots of herbs, some floral note and some sweetish grains. Finishes with a lasting herbal bitterness, hay, herbal infusion. Nice infused IPA - the mate tea is very present and gives the beer a distinct bitter herbal touch.

rand (3460) - SWITZERLAND - JAN 14, 2019UPDATED: JAN 14, 2019 Dorée pétillante à mousse blanche persistante, dentelles. Arômes de malt, citron et zeste qu'on retrouve au goût, doux, amer et un peu picotant à la fois. C'est relevé d'herbes, tisane et zeste. Bien dosé, avec un amer différent, végétal-terreux mais intéressant et sans excès, ni le côté sucré. Bel essai.
Bov (14982) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - MAR 6, 2018from chez Mamie, Bienne - cloudy orange-blond beer with a persistent foam left; flowery and fruity aroma with notes of oranges and tea; over-carbonated, medium-bodied, sweet malt backbone with a late and solid bitterness; aftertaste of tea and grapefruit with light spicy tones - the excessive carbonation is ruining a bit this otherwise pretty good beer
