Bottled. Hazy deep nutbrown colour, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is bigtime hops and some caramel malts. Flavour is fruity and flowery hops along with some licorice and alcohol. Balanced and pleasantly drinkable. More a richly hopped barley wine than IIPA/DIPA.

Bottled (Bottled 17.11.08 bottle #251). Courtesy of bierkoning, ty Edo! Hazy dark brown, steady creamy beige head. Caramelly, rubbery and hoppy aroma. Lots of licorice, malts, some hops, but not actually really bitter - more like barley wine. Also some "De Molen yeast" -flavor. Suprisingly hops are not there.

35,5 cl bottle @ HJHansen, Odense. Bottle Nr. 224. Pours a muddy amber with small bubbles on top. Nose is sweet and vinous. Port, caramel, dark fruits and hops. No cabonation. Medium bodied. Oily, syrupy & sticky. Looking at it as a Barley Wine its quite nice. Warmth from alcohol. Bitter lasting hoppy end. Lacks carbonation like most De Molen beers.

Cloudy dark copper with a non-existant off-white head. Looks like my homebrew barley wine. Smells like somewhere between that homebrew and paradise. That means tons of malt, port, brandy, biscuit, dried fruits like dates and prunes. Flavour is rich malty, filled with warming alcohol, dried fruits, and just enough hops to balance. Fantastic beer. But despite the description on the homepage (I usually don’t care, but if the beer describes itself as...), this is not DIPA, it’s more barleywine than an Old Foghorn or a Bigfoot... Yummy!

75 cL bottle. Pours hazy to murky brown with a slowly collapsing tan head. Grapefruity hoppy aroma, smooth yet distinct hoppy. Fruity and peachy and slight grapefruity flavoured with a nice bitterness coming through. Bitter and fruity hoppy flavoured finish. Nice brew. Lovely.

Very good beige head; dark brown beer with ruby highlights. Amarillo jumping out of the glass, resin, grapefruit, excellent nose. Bitter, C-hops, citrussy, resiny, malt syrup retronasal. Despite the Amarillo powerplay, the balance turns out just great. Slick, (hop)oily, viscous, and very well-bodied. This isn’t just great - it’’s truly excellent. One of Menno’s top-tries, absolutely!

Bottle at the Alvinne pre Zythos event 09. God the hops are lovely. Good fruits/red fruits, bit of peach and then full on US hops. Bit syrupy, lovely hops on end. Good though. Thanks to Menno for being such a great guy and sharing his beers at this event.

Bottle at Alvinne pre-ZBF09. Very nice caramelly hop aroma, smells like an American IPA. Cloudy dark red colour, not much head. The flavour is very fruity with some American tasting hops, but not as much as the aroma. The alcohol level is very good, it balances off the rather sweet fruit flavour, and it gives a good cleansing effect in the finish. In combination with a slightly biting hop it finishes the beer nicely. Rather low carbonation, I would have liked a bit more.
