Hazy orange, small white froth. Strong, piney aroma, slightly perfumy, whiffs of alcohol. Piney bitter flavour, orange, orange peel. Caramely malt underneath. Slightly disappointing.

Grazie mille, Albertoooo! Poured a hazy golden body with a white head. Aroma... dried grapes, citric hoppiness, sweet maltiness reminiscent of crystal. Citric taste, lemon & peach ice-tea mix, sweetish, soft, light tropical touch, very full malty backbone, overly so perhaps, eating up the 80 IBU like they aren’t there. Interesting - really not my type of IPA or Double IPA, but I can respect it. And I’m really glad I’ve tried it!

At the HofD brewery in Portland-USA. On tap. Bright gold hazy pour, a bit dark with a medium adhesive foam. Nose: orange fresh juice, lemon skin, some sweet fruitiness. Fantastic. Mouth: just lovely! Rich alcohol, mild sweet notes, crispy medium dry!
