Apr 26, 2009 650 ml bottle @ Haket, Göteborg, shared with four other nice guys! Pours an light amber color with a nice white head. Aroma is very inviting with tropical fruits, pineapple, resin, citrus, grapefruit and some caramel. Flavour is citrusy and hoppy, but overall well-balanced with wounderful tropical fruit flavours, citrus, grapefruit and some sweet caramel. Finish is bitter and nicely dry. Mediumbodied mouthfeel, quite smooth. Very nice beer and I’m glad I had the chance to try it!

Apr 25, 2009 Slightly cloudy gold. Complex citrussy aroma, with hints of black pepper and toffee. Feels great in the mouth, filling and comforting like velvet. Flavour is great, with caramel, grapefruit, warming alcohol, and orange peel. Finishes drying and hoppy, but with a sweet mltyness lingering. Still looking for that "hint of vanilla" though.

Apr 22, 2009 Bottle... Poured a clear amberish-orange with a huge white head. Strong hoppy aroma with a nice caramel presence. I big citrus fruit punch like grapefruit right up front while the floralness of the hops then took over. The finish was nice candy-sweet malt balance.

Apr 22, 2009 Bottle. Simply one of the best IPA’s I’ve had. Robust hop profile with a wonderful balance of different and very complementary flavours. Malt is certainly present depsite a full on hop attack. But the taste doesn’t numb the tongue like some IPA’s, rather it massages it with a gentle but unrelenting bitterness that pleases greatly. Superb.
skortila (2880), Bunnik, Netherlands
Apr 20, 2009 Bottled. Aroma has a lot of fruits (oranges, grapefruits), some caramel malts. Hazy, golden-orange coloured brew with an off-white, lasting head. The taste is bitter, slightly sweet, hoppy (loads of fruitiness there again, some pine). Slight malty touch. Wonderfull balance.
