Orange beer, fully hazy; dense, irregular, orange-tinted head. Marked sugar-caramely, and orange peel nose, as preserved confit orange parts. Taste is again very caramelised and orangey taste. Orange liqueur, but not very sweet, rather roasted, caramelised. Estery too. Retronasal some pine-like flavour, and warming up strawberries and ginger. Well-bodied; slick & creamy mouthfeel. Burning sensation. I just don’t get it. They call themselves H.O.P., put a hopcone on the green label. If I read well, there’s 4 different hops in the beer. AND I CAN’T TASTE ANY of them. Also, Wyeast from the USA was used. Why not some tons of American hops, for a change (or a taste). Why are we so afraid of hops, for crying out loud?
