May 23, 2009 0.35 l bottle at Helsinki Beer Festival 2009. Amber color with creamy head. Sweetish aroma with floral and tropical fruity hops, mango and toffee. Floral, lemony and sweaty hops and biscuity malt in the flavor. Not particularly bitter. Hop character has maybe lost some of its freshness.

May 20, 2009 OK IPA. Pours a cloudy copper with very thin wisps of head. The first pour aroma is almost sour - but the nose is grassy hops. Some juniper accents in there too. Another dry finishing IPA from the MW!

Hazy amber, small tight head. Huge hoppy aroma, tons of fruit. And, by heck, they’re there in the taste too - peach and melon in abundance, but also very good malty backbone to prop up the hops. Lovely fruity finish. Very tasty and well balanced IPA.

May 15, 2009 (Draught) Hazy amber with a smallish, firm head. Lots of conifer in the aroma, with some caramely malt. Somewhat yeasty flavor with caramely malt and conifer-hoppy notes. Quite sparingly hopped for an IPA. Almost medium body, quite carbonated. Ok, but that’s not quite enough for an IPA.
