Honestly really enjoyed this one - pours deep golden with a fairly active head. On the nose getting some pine and herbs, but undertones of almost gassiness / sulfur I’m not accustomed to. Taste is grassy and piney with slight cracker notes. Well balanced and interesting.

Gently hazy burnt yellow with a white head of moderate height leaving an array of spongy lace on the glass

The nose is maybe a touch nutty with toasty seed, but taste is a little zippier, punchier, and leaning a bit more into white wine grape than I often get from NZ hops, but that's subtle. Though also a little dank, perhaps a touch of pineapple expresses, as well as a hint of toasty biscuit.

Poured into a tumber glass. Light yellow, slightly cloudy with a nice head. Nice aroma of flower hops. The taste was somewhere between a West Coast and East Coast IPA. You had the bitterness of the West Coast, but not piney, with citrus and light juicy notes of an East Coast. Overall, I really liked how different this beer tasted from other IPAs.

Mad Fritz used an experimental hop from France (origin: Barbe Rouge, variety: Alasace, France).
