Furseth (1091), Kungälv, Sweden Jul 23, 2008 Bottle: Hazy red colour, with a nice head. Aroma of hay, caramel, flowery, citrus. Flavor citrus, and lots of hops, as a flowery mouth feeling,reminds me of an IPA. Medium caramely body, and medium fruirt fnish. Nice beer! nqualls (15), Tennessee, USA Jul 22, 2008 This was more of a strong IPA than a pale ale in my opinion. Aroma was of hops. A highly hopped taste with malt to balance. Poured a cloudy almost amber color with a minimal head. Heavy lacing as I drank the beer. mrant (220), New York, USA Jul 19, 2008 Smells very green and hoppy, more like a good ipa than a pale ale. Very pleasant. Taste is similar to the scent, strong hop presence with a nice thick rich malt flavor. The alcohol hits you quickly giving way to a pleasant hoppy yeasty after taste. Very nice abcfan (138), USA Jul 19, 2008 Wow, great beer! Pours golden orange with small white head, leaves excellent lace behind. Very sweet malty/honey aroma. Very smooth citrus taste on the tongue. Enjoyed this one a lot. Would drink again and again. CaryTheDude (114), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Jul 18, 2008 Updated: Jul 19, 2008Dammit, my butt still hurts from getting knocked on it after tasting this one. Overpowering, though maybe not as satisfying as Ruination or Hopslam. Like I was sayin to Honkeybra, I wanna be blindfolded and have a taste test with my favorite Double IPAs.
