thewolf (8245) - Kolding, DENMARK - MAY 18, 2008
Bottle @ Aarhus, 2008.
Pours deep, muddy orange amber with lottle floaties. Fine creamy off-white head. Aroma is exceptionally flowery, roses, grass and pine hops as well. Creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is lovely hoppy with a strong caramel background. Lots of flowers and some fruity hops as well. Long, staying aftertaste. Good APA.

Gr0ve (1756) - Oslo, NORWAY - APR 1, 2008
500 ml bottle. Hazy copper colour. Tall white fluffy head that clings to the glass. Acidic nose with notes of brett. Seems like there is a slight infection in there. Citrusy and a hint of pine. Gentle crisp malty flavours at first, then a bold hoppy flavour from American hops. Towards the finish the bitterness shines through and lasts a long time. Medium-bodied, but there is quite a bit of malt in there. Much sweeter than the average APA, but overall it is nicely balanced.

Brown colour with a nice head. Citrus and smooth ale flavours. Quite a strong taste. Excellent.

TheGrandMaster (2308) - Auckland, NEW ZEALAND - JAN 22, 2008
UPDATED: FEB 7, 2008 Bottle, poured a clear amber with a very large yellowish pillowy head. A strong hoppy aroma with spicy stewed fruit and a whiff of alcohol. A full mouthfeel, drinking very dry through the persistent head. The fruity hops flavours are crisp with piney notes and some flowery malt characterisitics.
