3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle sample at the Beer & Beyond room in "Icon" Sci-Fi/Fantasy festival in Tel Aviv. Pretty clear golden color with a small white head. Lovely fresh floral and citric hops in the aroma. Flavor has a bit of sweetness at first and continues with pleasant bitter hops, floral and somewhat grapefruity. Medium-bodied. Tasty and quaffable. A step-up for Alexander.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours light-honey with a stable foamy head. Aroma of grapefruit, citrus, and yeast, not overpowering but quite pleasant. Taste of up front bitterness, some citrus, and bitter lemon. Long palate. Good beer, but needs a bit more malt balance to be "great".
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Pours clear golden with white foam. Sweet grapefruit aroma with a little lychee. Fresh bitter taste. Smooth, light body, light carbonation, bitter finish. Very good.
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours with a nice head that disappears in less then a minute. The best Alexander that I had but overall ...it’s OK for an Israeli beer but had better IPA’s....it’s worth a try.
3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle, a little hazy light orange colour, medium stable bubbly head, aroma of grapefruit, mandarine, orange blossom and jasmine tea with just a touch of honey in the back, strong empathic grapefruit bitterness with some flowery notes and a bready backbone, finish is mellow with the same traits. Very, very good IPA.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours bronze to orange with a decent head, aroma of fresh lemon, cheese, garlic, mango and apricot, flavor of garlic, malt, pine, with moderate bitterness and relatively low sweetness, well balanced, medium bodied, refreshing and quaffable
