Pleasant aroma of citrus. Nice appearance frothy light yellow orange poor. Great flavour of more citrus and slight pine. Taste is interesting usual bitter hops well balanced by a sweet malty backbone but there is a tingling on the tongue I wasn’t expecting. Very nice.

3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Spicy hop aroma with moderate grainy malt. Strong malty flavours of bread and malt and strong herbal spicy hop flavours. Finishes a little sweet, I would prefer a higher attenuation. Some alcohol warmth. Bitterness only comes through right at the end.

Bottle to snifter (thanks DrSilverworm). Looks good; a semi-transparent deep orange with off-white lacing. Smells solid; hoppy, malty, and boozy. Tastes like it smells with a solid (albeit chewy) mouthfeel. Good beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
New Beer Distributors, NY 33cl ($6.75): Pours orange with a fluffy white head. Aroma is piney hops, some dirt, tiny bit of booze, and resin. Taste is pretty bitter. Hops are pretty forward without all that much complexity. It is still a lager. Has a typical Mikkeller hop and malt quality that you see in a lot of their IPAs. Easy to drink. Ultimately well balanced.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
330 ml bottle, rated from backlog. Aroma of caramel and herbal hops. Tastes of herbs and honey, a lot of caramel.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Very good but not particularly distinctive. I appreciated the density and richness of the palate, but the hop profile was fairly temperate (given the name especially)--certainly a hoppy beer, but the higher malt bill balanced the hops better than you’d find in a straight-up IPA or something. Bottle.
