Nose you could use a knife and fork on with tons of meaty hops. Pours a cloudy pale copper with a vague head and shreddy lace. Flavour is very dry and fiercely hopped with very little balancing sweetness or malt which leads to a very dry and long finish. It’s a bit vicious in a lot of ways, but rewarding.

Grifo. Vaso de ½ Pinta. Color ámbar anaranjado y apariencia niblada. Corona blanco amarillenta, algodonosa y con buena retención. Collares copiosos. Sabores y aromas de sutil malta carmaelo, resinas, fruta tropical y pomelo. Contundente pero agradable amargor en el intermedio que permanece hasta el final. Paladar oleoso, cremoso y sabroso. Cuerpo intenso y carbonatación extra suave. Refrescante, deliciosa. El ABV no resulta molesto en absoluto.
On-tap. ½ pint glass. Orangish amber in color, foggy appearance. Yellowish white, rocky, well retention crown. Copious collars. Subtle caramel malt, resins, tropical fruits & grapefruit notes both in flavor & aromas. Sharp, but gentle, bitterness in the middle lingers into the finish. Oily, flavorful, creamy palate. Full body, extra-soft carbonation. Refreshing, delightful. ABV is not annoying at all.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 BenH (1334) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - JUN 10, 2012
Bottle. Golden amber with short lasting white head. Nice hoppy aroma, resinous, piney, alcohol coming through a little, bordering on vegetal. Taste has more of the same, malt making itself known, lager yeast also evident. Oily with a bitter finish, alcohol not particularly well masked. Very much like a dipa but I’d probably rather have a dipa

Bottle @ home. Aroma is piney resinous hops, touch of malt. Flavour is a rich malty goodness covered by a thick fruity hops goodness, but with little (relative) bitterness. Very nice.

3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 NosirIwont (1721) - Aalborg Vestby, DENMARK - JUN 7, 2012
Bottle. Pours a hazy golden/amber with an off-white head. Good lacing. Sharp, tart, fresh citrus hop aroma, bordering grape fruit – very nice! Flavour is bitter citrus hops with a distinct alcohol presence and a metallic overtone. Malt in the background. Fat, bitter and sweetish finish with a lingering tartness and an alcoholic note. Overall pretty good, but the alcohol – and to some extent the bitterness – isn’t that well-balanced. 07.06.12.
