Pours a murky orange copper colour with a small white head, which fades quickly. Aroma of strong English toffee, gooseberry bush and some exotic fruitiness. Flavour of heavy caramel malts, gooseberries, alcohol, grapefruit, overly ripe banana, strong yeastiness and grassy bitterness. Medium bodied, low carbonation and a yeasty, grassy, harsh finish. Messy and yeasty.

3.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 stefannilssons (793) - SWEDEN - MAR 30, 2013
Det här var en bra öl med en dov fruktig smak i förgrunde och lite träiga toner i bakgrunden. En balanserad öl som dessutom upplevdes som rund och fin i munnen.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 olio (4080) - Tampere, FINLAND - MAR 28, 2013
33 cl bottle.
Pours hazy orange color with a small head. Aroma is very sweet with caramel malts, lots of intense hops, some floral notes, fruits and subtle pine notes. The sweet fruits turn to strawberry at the end. Flavor is also sweet, caramel, resiny hops, orange, some apricot and grass. Slick and quite bitter palate with a sweetish dry finish. Usually the sweetness on DIPAs doesn’t disturb me that much, but this definitely struck a nerve. Not very pleasant.

Bottle, Stirchley Wines, Birmingham. Hazy orange pour with a small white head. Piney hop and grapefruit notes in the nose. Flavour was sweet malts, booze and fruity hop. Balance somehow off. and the bitterness lacked any finesse. Strangely disappointing.

Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm Hazy orange amber color with generous creamy head. The aroma is very earthy, manure, strong, but with a pinch of freshness and fruitiness. Smooth mouthfeel, good toffee and caramel flavor, with resiny hopping, strong bitterness, and some orange character. Long final, with some dustiness in the end. Very interesting.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Beersiveknown (1619) - NORTHERN IRELAND - FEB 20, 2013
Bottle at home from bottleshop. Hazy dark amber with fluffy white head. Aroma is lime sherbert and slightly sour citric acid. Medium carbonation, predominantly sour peach and sweet malt with pithy citrus and bitter bite following after. Some melon on swirling. Big body but not at all boozy. I think it needed drinking sooner.
