[Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm] Clear amber, brief head. Strong hop aroma of lychee and apples. The clean, very hard mouthfeel induces metallic notes and reduces malt flavour to a minimum. Salty finish with lingering bitterness.

Lingering bitterness, chewy malt and enough complexity to keep it all going.

(12oz bottle) Hazy golden body with big off-white head. Aroma is moderately sweet, pine/grapefruit, caramel, some peach, light lemon peel. Taste is moderately sweet, caramel, peach, some grapefruit/orange -- much less bitter than the aroma suggests. Medium body, undercarbonated.

A rather cloudy, golden IPA covered by a generous white head that mostly lasts. A rather bubbly example that is too insistant on the yeast and lacks in cleanliness. Bready more than malty and mediocre in the hop expressiveness. I did not see a date on the bottle, perhaps this was not in its freshest taste, but this was blantantly lacking in the aromatic department and felt more sweet than bitter.

Clear orange bronze pour has a nicely-lacing froth of white head. Aroma of lightly caramely toasty malt and grapefruity hops. Starts pretty full and slightly grainy malty with some earthy bittering and flavor hops. Finishes bittersweet and fairly mild for an IPA, otherwise, it’s pretty drinkable.
