Beautiful citrus and mango aroma. Quickly dissapearing head. Clear golden body. Great, strong, hoppy citrus taste, very well balanced with malt sweetness. Simply wonderfull.

De chez brewdog je préfére largement la 5am, celle-ci sympa au nez mais on en retrouve moins en bouche
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 PriorL (260) - BELGIUM - MAY 10, 2013
Bottle at home. Bought in ’Geers’ Oostakker that day, so I suppose it was the 5,6% edition. Since the 6% edition is retired.
Appearance: clear blonde beer, small white stable head.
Nose: spices, apples, grapefruit, florar, amazing IPA nose, some mango.
Taste: a rather uni dimensional taste, bitterness is nice and long lasting, but I preferred the scent of this IPA. Very dry when drinking.

Draught Very thick, dense, off-white to yellow head over orange-shot golden beer, collar hardly diminishing. Exotic fruit, lunaria, grapes and grapefruit, blocked a bit by the thick head; bit of solvent. Bitter, and mildly fruity flavours. Grapes, nashua pear, pitaya especially. Surprising secundary flavour, dominated by fresh pale malts. Hops arriving in the finish. Very spritzy, light body, slighly slick. Not necessarily better than bottled, but interesting.

A magnificent IPA, best from the tap as I have found that the bottle conveys a more metallic taste to the beer than I like. A lively, hoppy taste that goes down very well, but perhaps for a seasoned palate rather than a first time drinker since the slightly higher alcohol content than regular beers takes its toll after a few!

UPDATED: MAY 10, 2013 A bit of a standard for me, in a positive way. This is one of the most affordable and acquirable true IPA’s on the market. Not the best aroma or appearance but the hop hit more than makes up for it. A slight sweetness is balanced by a citrus hop note and a satisfying grin. Normally have a few in the fridge.

Fast disappearing citrus aromas. The head is also disappearing quickly. The taste is lightly hopped citrus but nothing really else. They can do a lot better.
