Hazy golden color; big fluffy head; nice perlage. Very intense aroma of citrusy hops, very fruity, grapefruit, sweet; later, some crispy cookies and hop flowers too. Medium body strength, the malt and caramel flavor are almost completely overwhelmed by the fat hopping, very resiny and lightly fruity. The resins agressiveness is too high in the end. Crazy lack of balance, but I still love hops...

Cloudy golden color; big head. Very nice hoppy aroma, fruity and flowery. Medium body, not thick but nevertheless quite sweet, strong and aromatic hopping. The only defaut is a too high bitterness and astringency at the end: the hops have been used to death. Very good.
