Sampled at 8th Danish Ratebeer Gathering, Ulfborg 2015. Bottle. Clear dark orange to reddish color, small to average sized off-white head. Aroma is malts, resinous hops, resin, sweetish and slightly sweaty. Taste malts, resinous hops, resinous bitter, firm bitterness lingering in the aftertaste. Medium body and carbonation. Too bad the aroma is below par.

650 ml bottle bought at Craft Bier Fest Linz.
Deep red body, with a medium, creamy, light beige head.
Aroma of grapefruit, resin, pine, caramel, tea, dark berries.
Taste follows this pretty much, with some alcohol.
Medium, oily mouthfeel, with a quite lively carbonation.
Finishes alcohol warming, bitter, resinous, piney, malty.

Very nice. Great example of the style, with lots of lovely hops, balanced by smooth malts. Alcohol is present, but not too much. I really like this kind of beer.

Bottle. Aroma lots of hops, citrusy, resiny, light exotic. Clear deep copper colour. Lots of alcohol in taste, even a warm alcoholic mouthfeel and finish. Pretty promising fruity hoppiness, high bitterness, but the alcohol is simply too strong here from me. Rough ethanol character.
