A 330ml can with a best before date of 9th November 2017. Poured into a Lost Abbey teku glass.

Appearance: A slightly hazy copper amber colour with a two finger off white head that had good retention and left nice lacing.

Aroma: A good mix of citrus orange and mandarin with tropical papaya and mango plus hints of pine and grass.

Taste: Malty sweet biscuit and caramel with bitter citrus rind, peel and orange. Maybe hints of mango and pine on the finish, but not much.

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.

Overall: Not as good as Cascade or Simcoe, but like the others, the malts overpowered the hops and was just ok.

Light amber. I did a rough pour so I had some sediment coming in, making it hazy with plenty particules. Off white frothy, 3 fingers tall head. Mostly diminishing and leaving a decent lacing.

High aroma of hops. Flowers, forest and some fruits.

High bitterness. Very high bitter flavor. Again resin, very syrupy. Little bit sharp.

Average carbo. Medium body, juicy. Long bitter finish.

Nice. Good with sushi I had.

Not a bad beer but definitely not a great one either. The taste is somehow out of balance even though the malt presence is not low. The hop notes are a bit messy. It's quite complex (well it's mosaic) though. From grapefruit to pine. Some grass, maybe some earthy notes as well. The carbonation is quite nice, the mouthfeel a bit juicy

Almost clear dark golden color with off-white head. Smells like old hops, quite dank, some cardboard. Taste follows with the cardboard. Medium body and carbonation. It's not an old can but it seems somehow spoiled.

From a 33 cl can purchased at Mikkeller & Friends bottle shop on Copenhagen. This can had a recent date, so it looks like this beer isn't retired. This was a pretty tasty beer, but was surprisingly malty, pouring a moderately dark amber color. The malts overpowered the mosaic hops a bit, but seems counter intuitive for a beer meant to showcase a hop variety.

On tap. Poured a clear, golden orange color with a small, off-white head of foam. It smelled of citrus, pineapple and toasted caramel. Sweet tropical fruitiness with caramel malt backbone.
