Oct 2, 2008 Aroma is orange/piney hops, hazy pomegranate, small custard head. Taste is milder in the orange content than the nose implied, some good malt here too. Light bodied, nice dance of hops on the tongue. Great! Thanks Mr. Cheese Tasting.

Oct 2, 2008 500ml bottle. Freshly citric, floral nose, green, leafy and full of honeysuckle sweetness and orange, along with lighter notes of pine and grass. Lightly hazy medium copper color with a vigorous head and plenty of lacing to match. Flavor does indeed showcase plenty of American hop character, but features a nicely balancing toasty caramel maltiness throughout. Begins with fruity and sweet, turning hoppier from there onwards, showing a powerful citrus and pine quality along with a moderately strong amount of drying bitterness that makes for a snappy, resinous finish. Mouthfeel is slightly oily and finely effervescent, body is medium-full. Highly drinkable and flavorful rendition.

Sep 24, 2008 This amber ale poured with a nice off-white head and a floral aroma. There is a delicious caramel malt base with an excellent blend of balancing hops. Excellent long-lasting palate. This is a very nice brew.

Sep 12, 2008 Bottle. Great aroma - filled with hops. Clear amber colour with nice white head. Bitter flavour as would be expected from the tremendous amonts of hops, but also fruits. Just great. Long lasting bitteness. A great mixture af Danish and American brewing art.

Sep 9, 2008 Bottle, 9th August 2008. Coppery amber with a hoppy nose and flavour, but more balanced and restrained than most American IPAs. Good long aftertaste.

Sep 8, 2008 Bottle poured into a shaker. Poured a clear dark amber color with a three finger off white head. Aroma of malt and citrus hops. Flavor is slightly too malty, but a slight grapefruit flavor pushes through. Bitter dry finish at the end.

Sep 2, 2008 Apricot pour with a beige head and moderate lacing. Nose is of grapefruit and malt. Taste is a bit overburdened by the malt, yet the hop bitterness is still there, especially at the end. Mouthfeel is sensuous and the finish is crisp and clean - the bitterness lasts quite a while. Not a great IPA, but a good effort on the part of our Danish brothers to make an American style IPA.
