Sweetish, caramely malty and piney with some resin, toffee, hints of herbal hops, toasted notes and earthiness. Old skoolish malty Imperial IPA.

Copper colour, small beige head. Resiny and grassy aroma with some caramalty notes, even a bit mentholy. Medium-bodied. Malty, grassy hoppy, some pine and resin in the flavour. Feels easier than 8% and gives kind of Fullers Vintage Ale vibe. Nice.

(Keg at Juova, 20251221) The beer poured brown and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had toasted malts, grass, resin and mildly molasses. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, toasted malts, resin, toffee, caramel and bitterness. Aftertaste had toasted malts, resin and bitterness. A tasty malty brew with just subtle sweetness.

Smell of sweet malt, caramel. Deep copper colour, small beige head. Aroma of caramalt, fruit candy, some nutty note, strong hoppy bitterness in finish. Soft carbon, slightly oily texture. Starts medium sweet, finishes bitter. Interesting, but not fully non-conflicting combo.
