Mar 25, 2008 I poured this at a very cold temp and it still produced the classic Mikkeller head. Good retention and superb fluffy, sticky lacing that lasts. The color is a firey orange. Strong aromas of citrus rind and leather. Full nectar with good carbonation. This is a classic. Blistering bitterness balanced beautifully with a solid malt backbone. It’s dry not fruity. It’s simply classic. The finish is pure American west coast bitter that lingers.

Mar 22, 2008 Yummy!
Bottle has a touch of age on it. On draft I bet this thing is sexy.
Aroma is pineapple, orange, and apricot.
Taste is grassy, very earthy, some graininess.
Mouthfeel is fizzy, citric, harsh bitterness for an APA.
Overall, I think this beer is delicious and I would love to try it again more fresh. I think that the hop aroma doesn’t come through in the taste, as the taste is a lot more grassy, and also a bit of fruity ester, not so much fruity hoppiness.
Solid!

Mar 22, 2008 bottle from west lakeview..... pours a semi-transparent amber brown with a frothy white head.... solid aroma of pineapple, grapefruit, maybe some lychee and a touch of earthiness.... flavors favored a more grassy earthy hop where the tropical fruitiness from the nose really don’t shine through like i was expecting. medium body and finished with a bitter hoppiness..... solid nose but the flavor didn’t quit live up to it imho.

Mar 22, 2008 Updated: Jul 7, 2008Bottle (50 cl) at Delirium Café, Göteborg, Sweden. Hazy amber, medium off-white head. Fruity aroma with apricots, citric hops with a light barnyard/manure touch (from the fresh hops?). Medium bodied, smooth mouthfeel. Long bitter finish. Fantastic.
