Bottle Pours out a copper topped with a cream head. Aroma was of sweet caramel, citrus hops and rich malts. Taste a nice balance of the rich malts and citrus hops. A little bread/toast note as well.

Bottle. Maltier, weaker aroma than I’d expect in an IPA. The taste is quite sweet, but very, very bitter. Green, vegetal. This beer grows on me, though I get nothing more out of the aroma as it warms. Interesting, little bit of a voyage. Interesting to see a range of ratings on the aroma. I like this beer more than a 2.9, but I don’t want to start manufacturing my ratings, so there it is.

Aroma is a bit creamy, muddled, slightly hoppy, not very clean... Flavor profile follows suit, creaminess in an ipa is a turnoff for me, clean crisp flavors or else in my book.. Warming, alcohol is masked, but you can feel it... Average...

Draft at GABF. Orangish-amber with a large lasting white head and decent lacing. Aroma is caramel and rough citrusy and earthy hops. Flavor is caramel malt, toffee, and bitter earthy hops, with a little bit of citrus and light fruit. A tiny hint of pine as well. Palate is smooth with medium body and a long finish. This is somewhat of a hybrid between an American and English IPA it seems.

Bottle at Monk’s Café, Wallingatan
Bright copper color; generous creamy head.
Delicate aroma, mixing cookies, cereals, grass, fruity hops, spices; complex, original and stimulating.
Medium body strength, the mouthfeel is very smooth; there is a strong caramel and toffee flavor with the perfect balance of hops (indeed strong) and sweetness (just the required amount); the hops have a light citrusy side.
The final is very long, with toffee and a biscuity hop character.
A wonderful beer, that hits with the strength of the hops and seduces with the harmony and complexity of the potion.
