--Canned, from Systembolaget. -- Hazy golden, rich coarse head. Sweaty dank aroma of grapefruit. Mid sweet with medium to medium to full body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Dank sweaty grapefruit on neutral, bready malt. Long bitter finish.
Draught@CBC2016. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is floral, nectary, wooden and some mild alcohol as well. Flavour is fruity, floral, nectary with some mild spruce and sweet malts to it.
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.
Can: Poured a bright orange with a creamy off white head. Aroma is nice hops bouquet. Taste is strong hops forward with a nice malty backbone.
EB from 2016
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!
Can, from Malt & Mold. Pours cloudy dark orange-copper with large foamy off-white head, faint piney aroma, low carbonation, medium bitter slightly resinous taste with piney flavor, smooth thin body, long finish. Very well balanced and easy to drink.
On tap at Dive 106. Pours clear gold orange. Grapefruit, orange, biscuit, caramel, lemon, pine. Medium body. Good.
