UPDATED: SEP 24, 2020 Measure from a bottle at Beer Temple, Amsterdam on 15/02/2011. I really liked TNP, but this wasn’t quite as good. Interestingly, when IPA is freeze distilled, it seems to get this abundant aniseed flavour to it. That was pretty much the dominant thing, but once I adjusted to it, it became quite pleasant. Not quite something I’d want to have all the time, but an interesting experiment.

UPDATED: AUG 18, 2020 Bottle (110ml) at a tasting. Clear amber. Aroma of alcohol, medicine, herbs, old hops, caramel, toasted malt. Sweet, salty, alcoholic, burning, medicinal, bitter, notes of herbs and malt. Medium-bodied, flat. Crazy stuff, not my cup of tea.

UPDATED: APR 7, 2020 33cl Bottle @ 32GreatPower, Seville, Spain. Dark brown colour with no head. Aroma is malt, sweet, dried fruits, alcohol. Taste is malt, caramel, raisin, licorice, alcohol. Full body, soft carbonation.

UPDATED: DEC 30, 2021 Shot glass at The Situation. Black colour, nothing to say about the head and lacing because of the shot glass. Aroma is sweet, raisins, muscatel, molasses, and resins. Full body, creamy texture, sweet and hoppy finish. Taste is completely different, hops and resins dominating, but there's raisins, molasses and muscatel. Alcoholic, sweet, bitter. Great, but you can't think of it as a beer, even an extremen beer.
