Light amber. White head quickly dissipates. Caramel notes. Less sweet than some I&G ales. Worth tracking down as better than most I&G.

StoutHead (250) - DENMARK - JUN 16, 2013
Bottle. True to its name it pours a clear pale yellow color with a short-lived white head. Weak aroma of hops and spices. Mild taste of hops, caramel, spices, bread, malt and oak. Sweet and mild with a thin mouthfeel. Sweet and mild hoppy aftertaste. Average.

Zingao (14) - SWEDEN - JUN 15, 2013
Poured into a glass. Lightly yellow appearance. Oily and almost a bit thick feel. Tastes of banana, fudge and the wooden feel of Innis and Gunn. A bit sweet. Had whished for a longer lasting finish. I really like this one. A nice beer!

nazzty (576) - Ödåkra - Helsingborg, SWEDEN - JUN 7, 2013
Rich and fine with clearly marked malt flavors. Maybe slightly too sweet for my taste.

HeistAlmighty (850) - Saint John, New Brunswick, CANADA - JUN 7, 2013
330ml clear glass bottle. Not sure if it would make a difference so quickly as the bottle I had was fresh, but I thought there were hints of skunky hops and a little sour to the sweetness already. Overall, it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t anything special either, Odd mix of Scottish ale and English Pale ale styles to my taste.

closey22 (320) - Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, USA - JUN 1, 2013
Clear amber with little rimming head; aroma is funky sweet cantelope(?); Flava is sweet soft honey dew (?); feels light yet full with surprising fizziness; finishes sweetish and dryish some grainy notes
