UPDATED: MAR 1, 2022 Cask Stillage at GBBF 2012, Kensington Olympia 07/08/2012 Big hop aroma. Golden bronze coloured sweet on the palate strong in alcohol and very hoppy with a pine flavour. Bitter hoppy and slightly warming finish.

UPDATED: JAN 20, 2020 Flaska från SB. Bärnstensfärgad öl med lite små fällningar i. Doft av apelsinmarmelad, grapefrukt och honung. Grymt balanserad med sötma och god beska. Riktigt bra!

UPDATED: NOV 10, 2019 Pours hearty golden with a thick white head. Aroma of resinous hops. Taste has resinous cascade hop elements, lemongrass. Palate has caramel, spices, grass. Citrusy and refreshing, diesel.

UPDATED: JUN 1, 2019 On tap at Rattle N Hum West. Pours orange brown. Strawberry, caramel, toffee, biscuit, cherry. Medium body. Sweet and fruity without much booze. Decent.

UPDATED: MAY 15, 2019 Appearance: Clear amber-brown with a sudsy white head that settles down into a creamy layer with wet lacing. Aroma: candied apple and fruit, dried pineapple, spice, crisp big amber malt, dry faintly grassy / peppery hop. Taste: quite a big malt presence, toasted and faintly peppery, some overripe fruit and light banana, marmalade and apricot jam, balanced bitter hop. Body: slick, big, dry slightly metallic finish. A bit musty but could be unfresh? Big flavours, nice pour and nose, palate and taste slightly on the harsh bitter ale side.

UPDATED: MAY 15, 2019 Bottle from QClub at home. Transparent deep ruby-copper pour with sudsy white head. Aroma is heavy biscuit malt and aggressive earthy hop. Sort of like Arrogant Bastard, but less “arrogant”. Taste is sweeter than Arrogant Bastard, boozier too. Has the same big biscuit malt as the aroma, and a good bitter bite. May not be super fresh, or maybe just that slight Lagunitas mustiness. Heavy slightly slick palate. Big boozy biscuit malt bomb. Not bad but wouldn’t get again.

UPDATED: APR 30, 2019 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear dark amber with an off white tight head. Scents of dried fruits and leather. Sweet and balanced hops notes with a sticky mouthfeel. Complex and surprising. Alcohol is hidden. Quite good.

UPDATED: APR 19, 2019 Gyldenbrun klar med høyt eggegult skum. Lukter blomster, kvae og korn. Middels+ i fylde. Bitter, floralsk, noe trevirke, ristet knip noe vanilje og fløtekaramell. Middels lang.
