Jan 5, 2007 Bottle. Pours a hazy amber color with a decent sized off white head that lingers. Aroma is floral hops, citrus. Flavor is floral hops, malt, some crisp citrus notes. Palate is medium light, medium carbonation, bitter finish. Rather surprised, in a good way, with this one.

Jan 4, 2007 04.01.07 500ml bottle. Hazy amber color with lasting off-white head and many suspended bits. Aroma is strikingly fresh and floral, completely unexpected, and not unlike some pale Belgians. Lovely, really, and my surprise is adding to the enjoyment. Mild flavors but nicely balanced mix of floral and citrus hops with smooth and crisp fruits (apple skin, young pear). Long and mellow earthy undertones to the finish and lightly tongue coating resins. Neat stuff. One of the nicest UK bottled beers I’ve had a crack at.

Dec 31, 2006 Cloudy orange amber. Smell of hops, flowers, lavender, malt, citrus and iced tea. Taste of hops, iced green tea, lavender, malt, sugar, rose buds, apricots, oranges, and light caramel. nice bitterness at the end. Smelled liked a flower garden.

Dec 27, 2006 Amber coloured beer with a large white head on top that almost immediatly disappeared. Hops on the nose, kind of flowery. Medium bodied sweet malt flavoured with punchy hops in the finish.

Dec 25, 2006 2 finger head atop a rich slightly murky amber pour. Sweet caramel, piney, floral aroma definatley a detour from the typical cascade IPA aroma. Smooth cask conditioned mouthfeel. Slight peat flavor (seems like all Scotish beers are required to have this) with a sweet caramel and toffee finish. Interesting and certainly atypical IPA. Nicely brewed beer.
bierkoning (5992), La Tropica, Netherlands
Dec 24, 2006 Orange color. Grapefruit and earthy hops in the aroma. Earthy hopbitter flavor with grapefruit and red berries. Cascade hops, definitely. Grapefruit also in the long earthy, leathery aftertaste with a dry out effect. Hint of plastic. Well made.
