Pours an amber color with a white head. Nose is slightly floral with a strong perfume character. Slightly citric with a bit of tangerine. Toffee and toasted malt sweetness on the aroma, too. The flavor is lightly bitter with a mild hop flavor of pine and tangerine as well as some floral notes. A fairly sweet IPA with a healthy dose of toffee, toast, and bread.

Watery and thin. Maybe I’m overly stimulated, but there was nothing interesting whatsoever in the hop profile. Not too bitter, not too sweet, not too great.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 ACD (337) - Dublin, IRELAND - AUG 11, 2012
33cl bottle from Systembolaget, Stockholm. Pours copper with thin white head, light lacing. Aroma is caramel malt, slight citrus, earthy hop note - not as fragrant as I imagined it would be. Hops come out more in the taste with a tasty citrus and slight grapefruit zing complementing the thick caramel malt notes pretty well. Quite thin mouthfeel. Decent pale ale from an interesting brewery.
