Defreni (2045) - Husum, DENMARK - MAY 10, 2013
Flaske: Orange klar øl med et fint skumhoved. Hård duft af amerikansk humle, en smule kattetis, men ellers mest citrus. Mundfylden er markant præget af en aggressiv bitterhumling. Fin øl men skulle nok have været lidt friskere.

tiong (2242) - Espoo, FINLAND - MAY 5, 2013
650ml bottle from Høkeren

Pours clear dark orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of resiny hops, pine, grass and caramely malts. Taste is malty, caramely and resiny with some resiny hops, pine and grass. Finish is sweetish and malty with loads of hops and resiny notes. Alcohol burns through a bit. Okay, quite malty and heavy DIPA.

lusikka (4044) - Tampere, FINLAND - MAY 5, 2013
650 ml bottle.
Pours a copper colour with a white foamy head. Aroma of caramel malts, strong gooseberry bush and grass. Flavour of juicy, burning bitter floral hops, caramel, strong resin and some alcohol. Full bodied, thick mouthfeel and a very long, warming, lingering bitter and resiny finish. Hardcore.

olio (4080) - Tampere, FINLAND - MAY 5, 2013
65 cl bottle.
Pours clear golden-copper color with a small head. Aroma of citrusy hops, some floral notes, mandarin, orange peel and some resin. Flavor of resiny hops, caramel malts, orange, pine needles, some wood and hints of syrup. Harsh bitter and somewhat slick palate with a lingering caramelly finish, some alcohol burn at the end also. A Big Beer.
