Fad: Orange uklar øl med et lille skumhoved. Dejlig duft af mango, der ikke rigtig træder i karakter i smagen. Ellers lækker men med en lidt flad mundfylde der gør den en tand for klistret. Når dt er sagt smager den jo godt.

humlelala (687) - DENMARK - APR 2, 2013
(on tap @ Mikkeller & Friends) Pours a cloudy, dark amber with little, off-white head. Aroma is jammy, confectionary and resiny with notes of hoppy soda pop and passion fruit. Medium body, soft carbonation, oily texture and a rather sweet finish. Taste follows the nose but has more resiny sweetness, which contributes to masking the alcohol making it quite drinkable for the style.

On tap at bar Animal in Madrid. Smells like pine and sweat. Good and rather typical IPA but I find it hard to get around the smell of sweat.
