3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Light grapefruit and skunky aroma, light bitterness. Oily texture, light carbonation, light body. This is a pretty good IPA, I drank it several times prior to rating, but I think that something was wrong in the tap. Will be re-rated.

Bottle, thank you DSG! Murky red-brown color with a tight cap. Crystal malts in the aroma with fuzzy, dense hops. Fruity with rip nectarine nectar. Chewy bready malts. Finishes a little thin but is correspondingly refreshing and crisp.

Bottle shared at CBC - Clerkenwell, London. Big thanks to Tomer for hooking it up with some Israeli brews! Pours cloudy red-brown with a big, off-white froth. Light toast, dry orange, bread. Light bodied with average carbonation. Faint pine and toasty malts to finish. Not too bitter. Some mellow berries. OK.

Bottle shared by Leighton. It pours cloudy deep amber with a big off-white head. The nose is earthy, spice, bread, orange and light marmalade. The taste is wood, orange, citrus pith, light tang, spice, earth, bread and some alcohol warmth. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Strong yeast charachter. So-so.

Ugly light brown, but with a thin head. Woody, slightly fruity hop aroma with a little bit of crystal malts. Balanced, mellow C-hop and light crystal malt stuff.

Bottled, thanks DSG! Hazy nut brown, mid sized head. Aroma of tangerines and cardamom. Mid sweet with clean mouthfeel and medium body. Dough, peach and tangerines. Sugar and salt in a mid bitter finish. Pleasant hops, but a bit sweet and simple malt.

Israeli tick! Bottle, shared by Leighton. Cheers, fella. The pour’s deep amber with a small head. The aroma’s strawberry, hints of caramel, forest fruits. Light notes of old grass cuttings. The taste is somewhat raggedy straw, red berry, slight hop bitterness. Robust malt profile. Somewhat faded flavors. Medium body, soft carbonation. Overall, pretty forgettable.
