thebeertourist (1696), Oslo, Norway May 7, 2008 Pale golden colour, nice white head, that turns out quite stable. Harmonious citrus hop aroma. A good bitter punch on the tongue, some spicy notes as well lemon tastes. A great little bitter from the Isle of Man.
TET (120), Finland Jul 26, 2008 Misty orange beer with medium white head. Aroma is pleasant: hoppy fruits and some malts and grass. Flavour is strongly bitter but not very pleasant way. Flavour is also musty and clearly worse than aroma. Quite light to drink with lot of carbonation. Disappointment after great appearance and aroma, but musty flavour and soda-like palate doesn’t save this beer. tlind2 (170), Helsinki, Finland Jul 10, 2008 500 ml bottle. Slightly cloudy golden color, creamy white head. Hoppy aroma. Crisp, bitter taste, sweet malty finish. Oily mouthfeel, medium-low carbonation. Pretty good. austone (263), Pori, Finland Jun 26, 2008 Golden, small lacing head. Malty nose, at first it’s grassy, later flowery hops, little fruitiness. Straightforward malty and grassy flavor. Clean bitter finish, little seedy grapefruit. Light to medium bodied. Still not an IPA, although this one has a bit more effort. martinboer (1297), Amsterdam, Netherlands May 19, 2008 Bottle from Beers of Europe. Light golden body. Foamy. Hoppy nose. Nice hoppy taste, with slight citrus. Very creamy with a slight prickle. Bitter finish. Enjoyable bitter. liinis (360), Finland May 10, 2008 pale yellow not clear. white tiny but lasting head. bready. Strong cut and dried juniper wood flavor and aroma. soft carbonation. something rotten.. maybe the flowers. medium bitter.
