UPDATED: JUN 2, 2011 330ml bottle. Medium amber, white head. There’s a slight haze, but towards the end of the bottle the sediment gets heavier. Fruity, floral, spicy aromas, lots of hops and malt, apricots, citrus, and quite evident yeast notes. Medium bodied, dry, high bitterness. Hoppy, malty taste, citrus peel, green peas, the yeast comes through a bit too strongly. In the finish the bitterness is owerpowering, leaving a harsh and quite robust, unbalanced, impression.

Bottle. Hazy orange to amber with a creamy off-white head. Aroma: citrus, cheesecake, sourish dough. Taste: citrus, grape, sweet, toffee, fruit, medium-bitter. Medium-bodied. All right, but nothing spectacular.

Bottle 0.33 l. Russet, hazy, hardly any head. Aroma of blackberries, grapefruit, raspberries, raisins. First thing that hits you are an unpleasant yeasty taste. After that, however, one can appreciate the rich body and hoppy character. Carbonation was weak but not in a disturbing way.

Pale brown, slightly hazy. Small head. Fresh fragrance of grass and malt. Dry hoppiness, fruit, grape fruit and molasses. Balanced bitterness. An IPA made with precision, without compromises and without excesses. Very satisfactory.

Bottle at Olympen. Copper red hazy, thin white head. Aroma of grass and zests, also some yeast notes. Taste is full bodied with much sweetness. Good hop bitter finish

Bottle 33 cl from Systembolaget, Stockholm. Poured hazy amber in colour with creamy off-white head. Aroma is floral and fruity. Grapefruit bitterness and some malty notes in flavour.

Gräsig humledoft, lite tvättmedel, helt ok eftersmak och en ganska frisk öl.

Pours a small thin white head and a hazycoloured body. Medium carbonated, quite simple, standard IPA. An aftertaste that is to weak and to short. A distinct malttaste in the background. Hops not that impressive. Feels like a mix between american and english IPA.
