Bottle at Kobehavnske Oldage, May 2006. Hazy amber colour. Lots of US style piney hops in the aroma. Big burst of grapefruit in the flavour. Sharp mouthfeel. Pretty good stuff. Shame I won’t be able to get it again.

Bottle. Haha, Yespr...it wasn’t the last on Earth. Copper with beige head. Sweet, malty aroma with of figs and raisins. Notes of flowers as well with an overall fruity aroma. Flavour has some caramel malt character long with some raisin briefly abrubted by a hoppy, grape bitterness which finishes dry. Aging did this one well and has moved it up in my book. Had Heimdal only done beers of this standard... :-/

50 cL bottle, at Den årlige ølsmagning i Valhal - last bottle on earth. Pours hazy orange with a white head. Aroma is quite complex hoppy, distinct fruity. Flavour is mainly of fresh fruity hops. Very solid bitter and fruity. Finish holds a very dry and bitter lingering hops finish. Nice.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 jsquire (2484) - St. Marys, Ohio, USA - DEC 23, 2007
I have had this bottle too long in the fridge. No idea the bottle date. Clear amber color with a foamy ivory head that leaves nice lacing on the glass. Nice hoppy nose of pine resin and grapefruit rind. Lots of hop flavors in this beer, including the grapefruit rind, orange zest and pine resin. This finish tails off with ruby red grapefruit rind. This bottle shows its age by being a little thin in the body. This is the hazard of waiting for a special occasion to drink a beer. Just drink the hoppy beers fresh.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Svesse (4397) - Hässelby, SWEDEN - JUL 15, 2007
(Bottle) Deep amber colour, slightly hazy, with frothy beige head. Fruity, very hoppy nose with grapefruit, orange peel and pine needles. Great citrussy hop aroma. Fruity, hoppy taste with loads of grapefruit and orange, notes of caramel and toffee linger somewhere among the hops. Rather sweet, body above medium, rather syrupy mouthfeel. Great citrussy hop character in a long, bitter-sweet finish. Bitterness stays for a long time. Not really complex or balanced, but this is a true delight for a hop head. Great IPA!
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Maria (8586) - Thisted, DENMARK - JUN 3, 2007
November 2005 - this beer is brewed by Svaneke Bryghus. The color is like dark heather honey, and the head is huge. The aroma is very nice and the nine different types of hops are the reason. The aroma hops gives nice fruity and floral notes. The flavour is lightly sweet with notes of flower and caramel, and the hops give a nice and clear bitterness with a hint of citrus. It’s a beer that gives you the feeling that you eat it - you get the feeling, that you have eaten food. Nice...
