Can. No Todd on the label now, but still interesting to try to compare with the Danish brewed version (a 4.0 for me 5 years ago). Somewhat unclear golden amber with a white head. Intense citrus aroma with Meyer lemon, lime leaf, gooseberries, hints of mango & pine. Pretty light bodied. Feels alive. Dryish with loads of citrus, barely ripe tropical fruit. Not that much going on with the malt but it's enough to support and there's no bland sweetness. Long bitter finish. It's not the _only_ sort of IPA I like but it's a very good example of a type I do like a lot. Grist to my RoW people are .15 stingy notion mill.

Tap @ Mikkeller Bar Aarhus. Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aromas of mosaic, earthy, dank, vegetable-like notes, citrus, grapefruit, sweet orange. Taste has a lot of the same dank mosaic, sweet orange, piney, grassy, heavy bitterness. My kinda IPA!
