3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Oakes (10941) - Savusavu, FIJI ISLANDS - AUG 11, 2011
Dirty blonde and hazy. Mango/melon aroma with some light chewy elements, maybe some biscuits. Thick malts and tropical fruits. Rather muted and vague, with lots of bitterness and lots of maltiness too but neither really comes together all that well.

I was a little disappointed by this beer. It’s still good and I’d certainly drink it again when I have the opportunity, but still I had higher expectations. Nice IPA but not much more.

Bottle @ Tel Aviv tasting. Hazy deep orange hue. Smells very chewy! Finishes very astringent, like tobacco or persimmon dryness on the tongue. Strangely seems thin for being quite hot. Has grapefruit and overripe pineapple. Although it grows on me never ceases to just be more than an odd beer.

4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 Koelschtrinker (8480) - Köln (Cologne), GERMANY - JUN 1, 2011
Der hopfige Antrunk wird von dunklen, zunehmend rauchigen Malznoten begleitet. Das Ganze hat einen eindeutigen Whiskeytouch, der auch durch das kurze alkhololische Brennen bestätigt wird. Danach zeigt das Bier seine getreidige Seite, ohne jedoch von seinen Grundaromen abzurücken. Aromatisch, die Rauchnoten nehmen dabei eher zu als ab. Ein breites Spektrum von Aromen wird im Abgang geboten, fruchtig, rauchig, dazu hopfig und hefig – alles gut aufeinander abgestimmt. 8/13/13/13/11/13
