Orsted Olbar, Copenhagen - Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Nice lacing. Smell - citrus, piney. Taste - Citrus to the fore with a light bitter finish. Lovely easy drinker APA.

A: Poured from a bottle to a pint glass. Had an amber color and a clear consistency. There was an inch and a half of foamy, long-lasting head. Good lacing.
S: A decent, but not incredible, aroma of hops, caramel, and a floral element.
T: Tasted of hops, a light floral quality, caramel, a little citrus, and some malt. While the flavor here is pretty good, it never seems to break out. The hops content needed a bit more of a push.
M: A good amount of carbonation with a thin finish. Medium-bodied.
O: This isn't Beer Here's best effort, but it is still, in general drinkable.

500ml bottle. One of the more decidedly low-key labels for this brewery.
This beer pours a hazy medium golden amber colour, with three fat fingers of puffy, silkily foamy dirty white head, which leaves some chunky layers of stratified rock lace around the glass as things sink away.
It smells of bitter grapefruit and orange citrus, a muddled, yet complex array of tropical fruit esters, bready, and somewhat gamey caramel malt, a touch of rock toffee, some spicy wheat notes, and further floral, leafy hops. The taste is once again a pleasant blend of zingy domestic and tropical citrus rind, bready caramel and edgy wheat grain malt, a touch of earthy yeast, all topped up with more resinous pine and perfumed floral hops.
The bubbles are soft, but pervasively frothy, the body just on the lee side of medium weight, and generally smooth, with a touch of hard water character, the hops not up to any sort of malfeasance here. It finishes fairly dry, the malt petering out, while the hops show some adequate staying power.
A decently rendered hopped-up pale ale, the worldliness of the hop bill at least noticeable at times. I'm sure I could enjoy a few of these, before I clued into the retail cost, and cut it loose, in favour of any other IPA-wannabe pale ale, with all other things being equal, preferably something more local.

A: The beer is clear golden yellow-orange in color and has a moderate to high amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a finger high off white head that died down, consistently leaving a thin head covering the surface and a lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Light aromas of passionfruit are present in the nose.
T: The taste is similar to the smell but the passionfruit flavors are a little stronger and there is also a light amount of bitterness. Some woodiness is noticeable in the finish.
M: It feels a bit shy of being medium-bodied on the palate and has some crispness along with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I found this pale ale to be rather enjoyable because it was easy to drink and delivered nice aromas and flavors from the hops.

Pours a bright orange-gold. Quite cloudy - some yeast may have kicked up as I was pouring, as there is definitely a good bit of lees in the bottles. Decent enough head. White and foamy. Moderate lacing. A very thin layer of bubbles remains after a couple minutes.
Wonderfully hoppy aroma. Tangerines, pine, spruce, honeysuckle, lavender, raspberries. Lots of hop delicacy and complexity, but it tends towards those bright, sweet citrus tones - possibly Citra, but I'm bad at picking out specific varietals. A little bit of wheat spice, perhaps, and some pale malt sweetness in the background.
Starts with a bright citric hop note. Hop flavor abounds on the palate. Lots of tangerine and orange hoppiness. The malt is definitely a background note and contributes just a touch of malt sweetness in the background. It's a pretty dry APA, which is my preference for the style. Lasting hoppy finish. I'm left with a pleasant mouthful of pine needles and orange pith - sounds bad but meant in a good way. There's just hop flavor throughout the beer. Little bitterness despite the light body and dried out malt. Great stuff.
Mouthfeel is light and sudsy. Really dries out in the finish. Perhaps, a touch of hop oiliness. Very easy to drink.
This is a delicious APA and another winner in the recent dry/pale malt/hop-forward trend for the style, a la Zombie Dust, Row 2/Hill 56, etc. I wish it was a bit cheaper, but that's not really their fault. At any rate, this is a delicious beer.
