Break the ice with this 7.4% beast. Razor-sharp hops collide with bold, dangerousy chill refreshment. Untamed, fierce, and irresistibly smooth - it's an arctic blast in every sip. Brace yourself for a cold snap.

Copenhagen 17/11 2025. 44 cl can from Meny, Borups Allé, Frb. F. Some kind of green polar monster breaking through the ice on the can.

Pours opaque hazy orange with a mid-sized white head. Stable. Settles as a paper thin but unbroken layer of foam stretching chin to cover the surface of the beer. Crawling up the sides of the glass. Substantial lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a light sweet odor of ripe stone fruit mingling with stronger scent of citrus fruit, Dry vibe. Peach ans apricot. Grapefruit and lemon. Acerbic citrus.

Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is fairly intense with a medium strong sweetness followed and balanced by a medium strong bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a notable sweet undertone. Lingers for a while. Finish is dry.

Not exactly a polar monster. But a nice Indian Pale ale.
