Bottle Pour.Hazy amberish yellow color with a good white head.Smeels of hops and hops and a little citrusy woodsy character.Very bitter and hoppy taste with slight orange/lemony flavor in there,but not tastebud killing.Drinkable in doses but not something i’d use as a session beer.I’m not big on IPA’s but I would drink this again.

Clear amber pour with an off white head. Sweet piney and citrus aroma. Taste is sweet pine with a bitter but very smooth finish. Excellent. Also had a one year vertical bottle that poured a darker amber with a sweeter milder hop and thus a much more noticeable alcohol presence. The more fresh one was better and is the rated one.

35,5cl Bottle from Cracked Kettle’s Eshop. Cloudy orange with a small off-white head. Strong hoppy aroma with some citric touches, grass and pine. Extremely aromatic. Flavor is very hoppy however very drinkable and hides the ABV really well. Dry, hoppy and bitter finish.Lovely.

Out of bottle, February 2009. Tons of hop aroma including grapefruit citrus overtones with slight pine undertones. Despite really hoppy and bitter taste, has a very crisp and smooth after taste that leaves you wanting more. One of the best I’ve ever had.

A deep golden color with light carbonation rising from the bottom. A medium white foamy head stuck around the edges for some time.The hopp aroma hits me first followed by sweet grapefruit and a light malt.Taste is very complex. It begins like a grapefruit peel, a little bitter and earthy. It then gets more sweet but the slight sour taste lingers. The aftertaste stays with you for some time.The carbonation and body are light. One of my favorite beers ever.

Really attractive brew - A somewhat hazy soft orange, and then a nice tall fluffy head. The best way to describe this is: Lemonade and Pinesol. And that isn’t a bad thing at all. Nose of hay, grass, citrus-d retreats to some appreciable lacing. Taste is a burst of citrus and an oily, pine-fresh finish with a puckeringly bitter swallow.
