Sep 22, 2009 Bottle. A pretty big IPA. Pours deep, dark amber with a beige head. Aroma is quite pleasant, with lots of hops, notes of honey, caramel and citrus(lemon sherbet). Flavour is fairly similar with a more pronounced maltiness and nuttiness. Palate is quite dry with a lingering bitterness. Maybe not the very best IPA out there, but a very nice one all the same.

Sep 11, 2009 Elegant orange, amber color. Citrusy notes with subtle hops present. The palate is sharp and bright with hops upfront then dulls to an amazing finish of pine, citrus, and hops. Nice and light, easy to drink and very YUMMY!

Aug 30, 2009 500 ml bottle from Bev4less. Pours a hazy orange color with big sudsy off-white haed that has fair retention and some lacing. The aroma is moderate in strength with some pine, salty sweat, and light citrus. The flavor is biter hops forward with piney hops, caramel malts, biter walnuts and grapefruit. The palate is full and malty with lively carbonation. The finish is long with a lingering harsh bitterness. Overall: Not a bad little IPA, but I’d like to think that Mikkeller could do better than this.

Aug 28, 2009 Pours an orange/brown, big head, excellent lacing. The aroma is hops, pine and citrus a slight malt aroma in the background. The initial flavor is bitter, it stays with you, not a whole lot else happening. The mouthfeel is light, watery, the bitter is drowning out anything the malt be bringing. I keep waiting to taste some malts but nothing. It’s OK but I think there a much better IPA’s.

Aug 28, 2009 Bottle. Pours a golden orange color with a pretty substantial white head that dissipates rapidly until about half is gone, then a little slower to finish. Aroma is a nice, full bodied citrus, with notable hop characteristics, though it’s not too overpowering. The flavor is crisp, clean, and refreshing. Alcohol not too high to cause issues with enjoyment.

Aug 25, 2009 Bottle. More quality work from Mikkeller. Clear amber goldn with medium white head. Lovely aroma, quite malty for an IPA.Citrus hoppage but not over powering, forest after rain type thing, nice caramel malt notes and a dry bitter finish. Really well balanced and very bloody tasty.
