Bottle poured into flute.

Amber, not hazy, thick foamy off-white head. Bubbles slowly pop into thin cap.

Aroma is a bit malty, caramel, some earthy hops.

Tastes is malty, bit of toasted grain, bit of earthy hops. Hop level is mostly noticeable as bitterness. Only lager characteristic I can sense is the toasted flavor in the background.

A bit too bubbly, coats the tongue. Medium body.

A basically pleasant brew to drink. Malt is the most noticeable characteristic of the flavor and aroma. You can tell it has an ABV > 8%.

Amber color with a thick off-white head with good retention and leaving laces.
Nice aroma with notes of grass, spices, lager yeast, caramels, passion fruit and tangerines peel.
Flavor with notes of lager yeast, caramel and slightly toasted malts, tea bags, tangerines and spicy hops. Dry aftertaste with a long lasting bitterness, but it doesn’t feel as bitter as its 70 IBUs.
Medium body with appropriate carbonation. Alcohol of 8.5% abv is well disguised.
Very decent and well-crafted Brazilian IPL. It still preserves most of the Lager characteristics, mostly amplifying it rather than trying to be a just copy of an American IPA. Sure it has some citrusy, but you definitely feel its lager yeast. On the other hand, I do like a quite citric IPL...
