dornoy (606), Lyngby, Denmark Mar 22, 2008 I’m pretty partial towards IPAs. I just love this very hoppy kind of brew. This been fulfills all the expectation I had. Hoppy but fruity at the same time, a pleasure to drink!

Dark nut brown color, small off-white head. Bready-hoppy aroma. Sweetish malty, kind of grassy hopping. Some cardboard, otherwise solid double IPA. Easy, not too difficult IIPA. Ole_R (1127), Oslo, Norway Jul 19, 2008 500 ml bottle. A beige big-bubbled mostely lasting head upon a dark copper-red colored body. Lots of fruity American hops in the aroma. Whiffs of sweet, and rather harsh malts. Raw, quite unfresh sourish-sweet malty and light fruity flavor. Strong astringent bitterness. Big body. Alcohol heath and bitterness in the finish. Dr_Funk (56), Sorumsand, Norway Jul 14, 2008 500ml bottle from monopoly outlet, Oslo.
pours clear deep amber with descent yellowish head. wonderful cascade aromas, just like I would’ve brewed myself. Some alcohol, but not too much. A close to perfect beer... larsga (2113), Oslo, Norway Jul 13, 2008 Big beige head. Hazy red-amber body. Intense citric tropical fruit aroma with notes of mango and malts. Dry malty citric tropical fruit taste with light catty notes. Some sweetness, too. Slight alcohol heat. Mouthfeel has some softness to it, before the hop bite sets in. A bit of chalk, too. Taste burns pleasurably in the mouth. Bitter roasty aftertaste with some alcohol and oranges. Very long aftertaste. Lovely, a powerful beer to sip. (0.5l, Vinmonopolet.) Defreni (447), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 10, 2008 Flaske. Ikke så humlet som mere amerikanske udgaver af DIPA, men yderst drikbar. Svag humle i duften, og smagen er også en smule humlet, bitterheden er ikke så udpræget, men det gør øllen meget drikbar i forhold til procenterne. Fin øl, men ikke mere.
