Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso va sul cioccolato. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la continuità olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma ha una discreta resistenza. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è contenuto. L'intensità gustativa è elevata. La costanza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di pronta beva. Il finale è semplice e dissetante. Il retrogusto è intenso. In bocca l'aroma riporta sentori di miele, cioccolato, caffè, frutta secca, resina e agrumi.

440ml can. Amber-orange, small white head, thin retention. Aroma of herb-earthy funk, orange peel and light pine; ok. Taste is sweet malts, zesty citrus peel, earthy, pine resin; decent, could do with a lighter fruity note such as grapefruit to offset. Just shy of a moderate body and the carbonation is overly aggressive to compensate but once hard poured into another glass it was fine. Decent enough beer but has its flaws.

Forholdsvis lesbare notater fra årets GBBF. Fra cask delt med Steven: klar gylden med fint skum som varer. Slank men saftig og myk med honning, appelsinmarmelade og et hint av urter og aprikos. Rather moreish .

Can, small bubbly head, quite deep light cloudy colour, aroma of ripe oranges and minerals with a hint of candy, flavor of caramel with some herbs and grapefruit peel bitterness, a bit heavy. Ok, nothing special.

Amber colour with lacy head. A very well balanced IPA. Malty with a touch of light caramel. Quite a piney taste with some yellow stone fruit too.
