My rating: 2 My beeradvocate.com rating: 3.47 My ratebeer.com rating: 3.3
Intro: A 330ml can with a best before date of 15th November 2017. Poured into a Mikkeller tasting glass. Appearance: A hazy dark orange colour with a two finger white head that had good retention and left nice lacing. Aroma: Candied pineapple, passion fruit, grapefruit, pine and caramel. Taste: Sweet and only lightly bitter, caramel, citrus rind, honey, pine and surprisingly strong alcohol especially since it was well hidden with Citra and Mosaic. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Overall: Aromas were pretty nice but the surprisingly strong alcohol in the taste was not pleasant on the palate. Not as good as Citra and Mosaic.

Taste: Bittersweet tangy citrus fruit, orange rind, biscuit malt, toffee and hints of honey. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Overall: This was nice and enjoyable to drink. Second favourite to Mosaic, and much better than the Cascade and Simcoe versions.

Intro: A 330ml can with a best before date of 15th November 2017. Poured into a Mikkeller tasting glass. Appearance: A lightly hazy golden orange colour with a two finger frothy white head that had good retention and left nice lacing. Aroma: Orange juice, honey, pine and caramel with hints of grapefruit. Taste: Bittersweet orange juice, grapefruit, pine and caramel while at the same time, quite boozy. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate to low carbonation. Overall: This was one was not really for me. My least favourite of the four single hop IIPA’s that I tried. It was the clear booziness that took away from my fully appreciating this.

Overall: A very nice and refreshing beer especially for the summer. A good raspberry Berliner.
