MadIndian (1902) - Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA - SEP 24, 2010
Gift From Scott McCall (The Scotsman). Golden/ coppery pour with a mild nose of floral, pine and grass. I detected fuggles and kent hops in the mouth, a mild bitter sharp finish. I don’t know if I’d call this an I.P.A. but it was a good solid beer.

Metalchopz (1427) - Quebec, CANADA - JUN 30, 2010
Poured a light golden colour with a small head. This IPA had nice medium lacing and good carbonation, with some bubbles being bigger then others. Aromas were of citrus malts. Tasted hoppy with caramel malts. Dry finish. Mouthfeel is smooth and clean.

50 cl bottle, golden colour with small white head fading away fastly. smell: grainy and a bit industrial. Taste: watery, medium bitter, roasted malt, dry aftertaste. Good for such a low alcohol!

mikkopen (517) - Oulu, FINLAND - MAR 7, 2010
500 ml bottle. Clear golden yellow colour, thin white head. Sweetish aroma of malts, berries and grassy hops. The flavour is caramel-malty, with citrus fruits and a woody, bitter, hoppy finish. A quite nice bitter.

TET (786) - FINLAND - DEC 19, 2009
Golden beer with medium white head. Malts, some sweetness, hint of redberries and overally aroma is peacefull and sophisticated. Cornfield, some grass and citrus fruits in the flavour and in the there are soem dry bitterness. Quite light to drink with balanced carbonation. Quite refresning as label promised but overally basic and unsurprising beer.
