3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of Ungstrup. Pours a hazy warm amber with a smallish off-white head leaving some lacework. Intense almost herbal hop aroma with no particular sticking out - what I usually refer to as hop soup. Solid body, lots of caramel and fruit before the hops come roaring in again leaving quite a hop burn. A very muscly Double IPA. 130710

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught at Mikkeller Bar, Copenhagen
Hazy red-amber color; creamy head. Aroma of fruity hops, dust, soil, lightly earthy, cheesy. Correct body strength; strong caramel flavor, and strong resiny hops, with light fruity component.
The final is bold, but also a bit earthy and dusty.
Tasted side to side with the "I Hardcore You", this one seems to be the one that brings the original beer element to the mix.
