4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Pours black with a thick beige that sticks around. Nice aroma, pine, grapefruit and coffee. Taste has similar flavours but perhaps is less hoppy and the rich roasty malt comes through harder. Medium body with a long very bitter finish that I quite like, sticks around for ages. Very nice

Bottle from toft vin.pitch dark. light brown head (large, fluffy, some of it smooth). very nice roasted malty and hoppy (pine, fruit peel) aroma. the dark malts are quite strong in the aroma. Flavor is bitter roasted malts, notes of cofee bitterness, lots and lots of bitter hops and a little flowery hops in the middle, then bitter roasted malts in the end. Very nice dark ipa indeed. high on bitterness. Now, i wonder how many bottles i’l have to buy to get to taste the other one...

Bottle @ home. Aroma is fruity and floral hops, slight sweaty touch. Flavour is medium hop bitterness with loads of flavour, fruity, floral, nelson madness. Some malty notes but it’s the hops that shine here. Great stuff.
