3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, copper to deep amber colour with a medium-sized tanned foamy head. Bready toast-malty aroma with caramel, peppery spice and delicately fruity hoppy notes. Bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Hearty toasted malt character with notes of bread crusts, caramel on a delicately fruity hoppy background; bitter-sweet toasty malty finish with a rising hops profile towards the aftertaste, containing mildly fruity and spicy notes. Heavily malty IPA, reminding me more of a dark Bock, nevertheless a likeable brew. 20.X.12

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
The 33cl bottle pours with a clear deep copper body that is supporting a tan head of foam that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The aroma a mix of nearly musty barleywine like sweet malts, slightly resiny pine hops, some sweet citrus hard candy and a bit of floral. The taste is slightly aged sweet malts and pine like hops moving into snippets of grapefruit and floral like hops. It seems this is a bit aged even though it states best by August 20th 2013 on the label. Still, tastes alright.
