White head. Slightly hazy golden orange.

Earthy with some funk and zest. Floral and grassy. Some resin and bitterness. Black crushed pepper and spice. Okay ipa, but nothing I’d seek out.

Pours a clouded, bright golden color with a decent, stable head.

Smells of orange leaden fruit sorbet, together with a flowery note of elderflower. Brings a bready quality with some crackers to the palate, which get juiced up by fresh squeezed orange.

Has a soft, fuller mouthfeel with a lower carbonation, coated by an intense bitterness during the finish.

Brings a profound sweetness of toffee and caramel to the palate, which was almost entirely missing on the nose. At the same time a powerful lemon bitterness becomes visible, enriched by ripe oranges and dried, white wine grapes among tomato bush. Has a whole lot of dried blackberries and orange jam after the swallow, balanced by dried herbs and even more dry limes.

This develops an intense balance between sweet and dry very early on, displaying a typical old school ipa with a recognizable malt backbone. The belma hop does work as a nice antagonist to the malts, dry on the palate and lusciously fruity on the nose.
