Bottle. Copper color, bottled october 2018, must be something wrong here. Aroma has pine, grassy hop, caramel and peach. Taste of bitter grassy pine, caramel, peach, some booze, citrus peel and a dry bitter finish. Too old I suppose, but I can?t be sure because of the future bottle date.

Bottle @ home. Hazy medium orange color, medium sized white head that lasts for a decent while. Aroma is malts, hops, tropical fruits. Taste malts, hops, tropical fruit hops, hop bitter, tropical fruit hop bitter. Appears very fresh, yet bottle says bottled on October 9th 2016. Very nice nonetheless. And credits for stating bottle date instead of the useless best before blabla. Very nice, I thoroughly enjoyed this beer.

Hazy deep amber beer, tidy cream colour head. Palate is light and smooth with decent fine carbonation. Mild minerals. Reasonably creamy sweet malts, slightly thin. Smooth pine into bitterish floralness. Decent citrus - juicy orange, mild tropical fruits and pink grapefruit. Fairly bitter citric peel finish. Quite light and it hangs together well. Nice.

Clear dark blond colour with lasting head. Aroma and flavour have some peachy, notes along with a touch of pine. Although bitter it doesn’t seem as extreme as the 160 IBU’s would suggest.

Well, a big nasty IPA on the shores of Spain... what could be better, eh? I think that cork hit the heating shroud and not the garbage can, but anyways, the maid can figure that out later. This bottle has a fine pour, good creamy white head, good foggy orange body, some carbonation, sure it’s all good there. Subdued hops aroma; for a nine percent monster you’d expect some foul smells but that’s not the case here, it’s all mellow, liike a jaguar hiding in the shadows. This comes with a flavour of hops, not surprisingly, but not complex and also a little bit matured and relaxed. Nothing too feisty here. Crisp finish, nice on the mouth. No sign whatsoever of their mystique nine percents worth of alcohol, and that’s nice too: it all comes together and is a highly drinkable IPA, just not an especially interesting one.
