On tap @ Ladyface Alehouse. Subtle aroma of burnt caramel and hops. Golden appearance with a simple foam. Strong hops upfront with a biscuit and caramel malt base combo. Full bodied with lingering hops on the finish. Overall nicely balanced. Think of Pliny with a more metallic taste to it. I’d give this an A+ rating.

Poured a golden hue with almost no head. Smelled of citrus and a little skunk. Tasted of citrus with a balanced amount of bitterness. This would be my go to beer if it was more available.

500ml bottle. Golden pour with some floaters and a white head. Leafy hops dominate the nose with a light resinous note. The same things come out on the palate with a balanced dose of caramel maltiness. Medium body and carbonation.

Grapefruit, blueberry, rosehip nose, quite strong. Crystal clear amber, medium head. Not nearly as hoppy on the palate. Drinks like an APA, actually, but a good one.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 19/20 maekchu (1086) - Hirakata, JAPAN - FEB 23, 2013
Bottle. Great stinky hop aroma rising up, manure, horse radish. Clear pale straw color, smooth white head. Wonderful hop attack initial: a complex mix of citrus and pine / more hops, but mellowed, in mid palate, with a complement of sweet maltiness / lengthy, tasty hop finish. Medium body. Hops certainly dominate this one, but not overdone. A great IPA.
