Bottled. Amber colour, lacy head. Hoppy nose has piney, grapefruity and floral notes. Some caramel too. Slightly biscuity and caramelly, but overall dryish. Somehow soapy/vegetal bitterness with resiny/grapefruity finish. A bit harsh maybe. Medium bodied.

Bottle. Copper amber, clear. Nose is loaded with hoppy grapefruit and pine, some tropicality/florals, caramel, malts. A bit of butterscotch and butter and.. honey? Body is slick, medium light. Good soft bitterness. I’m wondering where’s the xmas in here? Seems like a fresh hoppy ipa to me.

Small bottle. Light orange/amber body with a small head. Aroma has pine needles and pineapple. Rather sweet malty taste with medium level hoppiness. Expected to taste some ginger or spices but it’s just a regular Brewdog style IPA. Smilar to Punk but a bit stronger.

As promised really strong hoppy aroma. Pine, citrus, pineapple, nuts, caramel. Clear deep amber, 3 finger frothy head and lacing. Sweet and bitter, soft feel, bit oily, medium body, bitter finish. Nice flavors and palate. A good one, bitter but not too bitter, nuanced and enjoyable.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tasting a bottle with Cuso and Karol 2 weeks ago. Aroma floral, fruity orchard, very light pine. Colour clear golden to amber. Taste pine, some sweet malty background, light heavy hoppy bitterness. Light elderberry. Higher carbonation, quite belchy. Refreshing though. Nice Christmas stuff. 7 4 7 3 13 New bottle rerate. Aroma mostly pine, pineapple, elderberry. Interesting combination. Taste is about the same, with moderate bitterness. Untraditional take on IPA (bonus points for that), very interesting, I like it. It kind of reminds me Never Mind the Anabolics.
Finish is dry, pineapple elderberry bitter.
