A nice orange colour, a head is quite big and blond. Aroma has strong tropical fruitness, pineapple, mandarin, fruit candies, fructose. Rich with a fruit meat. Taste has tropical fruitness, grapefruits, good maltyness, some herbal like spicyness, maybe the origin is the used rye. A bitterness is slightly slow but then nice, medium and long lasting. Medium+ bodied, quite smooth. Very nice aroma, taste has also maltyness, balanced and succesfully.

Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark caramel color with a large creamy-soapy orange-white head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was sweet caramel, pine, rye and tropical fruit. The flavor was sweet caramel, pine, tropical fruit and tobacco. Long finish. Moderately full bodied. Ok.

Smell of hops, a faint of rye malt. Red amber colour, massive beige/orange head. Aroma of alcohol (much stronger than expected for 7 ABV), hops. Not so much rye to be noted, although suitably bitter. A faint sweetness due to alcohol. Some citrus to be noted. Soft and plentiful carbon,

(650ml bottle @ VilleValla Pub, Linköping, Jan 23 2015) Pours a very hazy dark brownish orange with a moderate white head. Aroma has lots of spicy rye and a bit of grain as well as caramel sweetness, a bit of grassy notes and some wisps of passion fruit, grapefruit and other tropical fruit. On the palate, rye and caramel lead as well, pine needles, grass, floral, grapefruit. Moderate bitterness holds rye, citrus pith and light pine in the finish. Medium full, sort of thick in the mouth. Frankly this bottle did not drink like it was particularly fresh, so while I quite like the rye character, it lacked the strength in the hops to match it. If fresher, I think I might like it more.
