Draught at Mikkeller Bar, København, Denmark.
Deep golden colour with big white head. Quite tangy piney, resiny and foresty hoppy aroma. Flavour is more rounded but still bitter resiny hoppy with some sweetness. Long-lasting bitter hoppiness in aftertaste. Very good!

ross (1977) - weddington, North Carolina, USA - JUN 17, 2013
Bottle. Pours out and looks like a typical IPA. Huge citrus / grass / fresh hop aroma (most likely from simcoe....????). Taste is sweet, fruity, bitter, and pretty good. Not enough citrus for my liking, and especially not at the price point. Worth trying, but not something I would make a habit of buying.

Bottle @ Sticky floor tasting II. Hazy amber color, small beige head. Smell and taste malts, hops, a touch of sweetness and nice bitterness. A touch of fruit and fruitpeel bitter as well. Medium body and carbonation.

MrHangover (1156) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - JUN 14, 2013
Bottle at THT, courtesy of Zer0. Pours a misty orange beer with a nice, medium dense, of white head. Aroma is definitely simcoe, cardboard and light pine. Flavour is light bitter, not much special. Just decent.

zenkis (301) - Ogre, LATVIA - JUN 9, 2013
on tap @ALEhouse, Riga Pours deep amber with small beige top, but rocky foam layer is quite sustainable, light lasing. Aroma - citrusy and again citrusy, intense. Taste - light sweet body with super bitter backbone for just IPA. Palate - medium bodied, watery texture, dry bitter finish, soft carbonation. Very drinkable and very pleasant IPA. Surprisingly well hopped for IPA. Sugest!

ACD (379) - Dublin, IRELAND - JUN 8, 2013
33cl bottle. Copper pour with thick white head. Aroma gives lots of candied pineapple, dank tropical fruit, caramel and (oddly) heavy plastic notes. Taste is sweet synthetic pineapple, caramel, overripe mango, orange, and more weird plastic. Nice and bitter with plenty of residual tropical/pine resin flavour. Decent, but a few too many odd flavours in there for me: maybe there is such a thing as too much Simcoe!
