Clear golden color with white head. Not a very good IPA very weak. Slight hoppy aroma mostly malt. Hardly any taste of hops with mild harsh bitter after taste.

Hazy, amber/gold appearance with a large, cream colored, fine bubbled head and good lacing. Subdued flowery aroma, some mild fruitiness and faint spice. Hops were more citrusy in the taste, with a modest malt profile providing a hint of sweetness. Medium bodied, moderately carbonated mouthfeel with a smooth, short lived finish.

12 oz. bottle: This one pours a cloudy amber color. There was quite a bit of an off-white head on it, which left a large amount of lacing. Fairly weak aroma. Some grassy and faintly citirc hops to the nose. Somewhat metallic dryness to the taste. Grassy hop taste. Not well balanced. I won’t be having this one again.

Not a good IPA at all, copper color with a decent-sized off-white head, small lacing left around the glass, nose of piney hops & just a touch of sweet maltiness, but no malt was apparant in the flavors though, it was all hops, way too much hops with no balancing malts, very harsh & acidic hoppy & bitter finish & aftertaste, not very enjoyable at all, very disappointing

Bottle at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Pale orange appearance with a small dissapearing head. Lifeless hard aroma of metal and grassy hops. Unbalanced flavour of stale grassy hops with no malts in sight. Clean and lifeless mouthfeel. Harsh bitter finish. No thanks.

Poured from bottle purchased from brewery. Aroma of burnt hops, sea air and wood. Hops present in the back of the mouth with grapefruit, and also a touch of vanilla. After several sips, i find myself anticipating the aftertaste. Not as hopped-up as other IPAs, but def a teriffic one.

Tasted from a bottle -- little escaped aroma-wise. This is your plum-average IPA from a brewery in a beautiful town.

Bottle. Pours amber with some red hues, white head. Sugary, bready, and floral hop aroma. Toffee like malt flavor. Bitter citrus flavors come out before the dry herbal hop and lingering bitter finish. The bitterness really sticks. Overall, the fruitness really stands out. Better than I expected. This dances on the border of APA and IPA territory, but I think it qualifies as a IPA
