HAPKIN has a very good fresh, flowery, Saaz hop aroma, a very big creamy head, a soft malt character, and a spritzy, perfumy fruitness drying toward the finish.

Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - OCT 14, 2008
It’s hazy golden with a huge and lasting head. The aroma has notes of malt, candy sugar and fruit. The flavour has sweetness and notes of citrus, fruit, alcohol, malt, cany sugar, yeast and the finish has a dry, somewhat harsh citrus. IMO a bit unbalanced.
