4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Poured from a 700ml bottle into a La Fin Du Monde tulip glass.
The color is hazy copper/orange with two finger of foamy white head that leave nothing behind.
The smell is a bit of a funky hop aroma in the nose at first. Just poring it gives off hops in the nose. Upon getting a closer sniff there is some deep biscuit aroma and some earthy hop aroma.
The taste is lip smacking hops at first. The name does not lie as bitterness is the major player here. There is some bright citrus flavor that is packed in the lining of the bitterness. Some green grass or pine flavor comes out and then leads into a malty backbone.
The feel of this is a bit larger then expected and is a bit complex. It has a good drinkable body and ends with a big bitterness that makes my mouth tingle.

Sample @ Stockholm Beer & Whiskey Festival
Great IIPA here, lots of blood orange and orange being in play here. Quite thick in the taste (not the mouthfeel), almost as if it’s a concetration of the zest too. well, nice malt base that is probably the reason why the orange sticks out a bit more.

Pours a cloudy orange tan color with some frothy head that mostly dissipates. Nose is strong with tons of hops,first sip is huge malt with very astringent finish.

Bright, hazy orange colour with no head. Smells hoppy grapefruit + something sweet, weird - also some plastic. Tastes super bitter, fruity, alcohol and wood. Long bitter aftertaste. Carbo is on the edge.

22oz bottle in a snifter. Pours copper with a thick, lacy, off-white head. Aroma strong of citrusy and grassy hops and a lot of caramel and doughy malts to balance it out. Flavor the same and alcohol hidden well. Thicker texture. A really good double IPA.
