Draft at Rézhasú Bagoly. Nice white head and a amber/orange colour. Citrus and herbal in nose like a american hops ipa have to be. Some honey, herbal and a lemon in mouse with a really good bitter aftertaste.

A Grabanc IPA megjelenésében ködös, élesztőtől zavaros és opálos,sok habbal.Illatában a sör gyümölcsös enyhén mandarinos és a citrusfélékre hajaz!Ize enyhén karamellás és gyümölcsös picit a pirosbogyósokra emlékeztet és a komló íze szinte szétrobbantja ezt az egészet! A kedvenc söröm!!!:)

Rune (6377) - Tromsř, NORWAY - AUG 26, 2012
Draught, 6.0% abv., at Csak a Jó Sór. Unclear, apricot coloured body. Firm white head, good lacing. Fruit hoppy aroma with notes red oranges and grapefruits. Pineapples and apricot in a fresh, fruit hoppy flavour. Rounded, long-lived bitter aftertaste. Well made and very pleasing (Budapest, 31.07.2012).

Cristobal37 (104) - Canyon Lake, California, USA - AUG 7, 2012
Sweet aroma, healthy amber color, somewhere in between a Belgian and West coast Ipa. Very satisfying. Stays on the palate like a good IPA should. Drank off the tap at Csak a Jó Sörök. Easily best Hungarian beer I’ve ever had.

Igazán jó kis IPA, amit a legjobban szeretek benne az a grapefruit és a szőlő egyvelege. A sötét verziója is hozza a megszokott ízvilágot, kicsit engem a Matuska Cerná Rakétára emlékeztet, amit még valamelyik eldugott prágai csehóban kóstoltunk.
