Bottle. Unclear amber color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, beige head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, caramel, moderate hoppy, pine. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottled. A hazy dark amber beer with an OK bubbly orange-brown head. The aroma is very hoppy with notes of grapefruit, grass, and pine needles, on a sweet background. The flavor is sweet malty and to start off with notes of caramel and roasted bread, but this is fastly overpowered by the hops with strong notes of grapefruit and pine needles, which carries thru to a very dry and quite bitter end, with a note of berries lingering together with the pine needles - reminds me of a pine forest in the autumn.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear, dark amber with a small, off-white head. Hoppy aroma. Quite dry and hoppy throughout with an underlying caramelish sweetness. 160106
