2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Jukkabro (3457) - Tampere, FINLAND - JAN 3, 2008
Dark orange colored, medium sized yellow head. Strongly fruity aroma with toffee, caramel and only mild hops, not too IPAish still for my taste. Medium bodied. Flavor is more IPA-like with hops and dry fruits, still this toffee comes up here. Aftertaste dries with lemon and drying tone. Again, not very American styled Danish IPA.
