Had as Green Easter. Pours a clear, appetizing chestnut with a thick, fine-bubbled and rather persistent wheaten head. Bold aroma is very hoppy, mainly on the evergreen/resin end of the spectrum, with a hint of grapefruit. Fiercely hoppy flavor has about equal parts wood and evergreen, with malty and sour citrus undertones. Firm texture is quite fizzy and lively, leaving a nice woody hop and slightly citrus finish. Green Gold or Green Easter, definitely a treasure.

Bottle, traded with Cunningham. Nice, red-orange colour with a lasting head. Aroma is mainly ripe, tropical fruit - mango, peach and dates, some citrus and resin, quite strong malty notes (pale-sugary as well as darker-caramelly) and spicy yeasty hints. The mouthfeel is fantastic due to the oat flakes and the oily hops - absolutely velvety. Full malty body, fruity-hoppy flavour and a strong yet soft bitterness. All of that is amazingly well put together. An IPA cannot get much better than this.

Tasapainoinen, ei liian vahva, pientä karvasmakuisuutta alussa, humalaa roimisti mikä jää kielelle pomppimaan

Good beer night. Darker than I expected and a lovely bitter hit. I love my dear friends who are fellow beer adventurers. My life is much richer now that they are part of it. Thank you.

@ Chr IV, and as the easter-version. Brown coloured and hazy. Has an off-white head, lasting. Heavy hoppy aroma, passionfruit, dill. Flavor starts sweet, then heavy bitter, dry, some nice notes of herbs. Dry texture.

UPDATED: APR 4, 2013 Had it as "Green Easter" and suits the time of the year. hazy amber in colour light fizzy and an average light beige head. Noses of passion fruit and mango with hops aromas mainly with hints of dust and rock sugar. Strong, medium sweet and fruit taste with a light fizzy bit watery fizzy texture. Lovely light velvety on the palate and the fruit lasts long without hitting you in your face! Finish builds up of a dry bitter hoppiness which grows stronger and stronger and fades into a light sweet taste lingering on the palate. Lovely stuff!
