Kettle Series. When hopportunity knocks, answer it. This ale is Caldera’s rendition of answering the Pacific Northwest call for a @*! pile of Centennial hops with a big beer to back it up. Don’t get left out in the cold, open up and fill the void within you . . .

Can from tderoeck. Hazy amber colour, creamy white foam. Medium carbonation. Sweet nose of pine, caramel and tropical fruit. Bit aged, so reminds me a bit of a hoppy barley wine. Not bad.

4/VII/15 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ RBBSG IV - BB: n/a, canned: XII/3/2014 (2015-835)

Clear amber beer, creamy beige head, unstable, bit adhesive. Aroma: very malty, honey, oxidized, sweet, strawberry jam. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: sweet malty start, bitter hops, some citrus, very fruity, grassy, some caramel. Aftertaste: sweet malts, honey, pretty bitter, bit fruity. Just simply too old to be good any more. Don't give an ipa over 6 months, even in a can. Or at least not this one...

Can. Nose is.... unexpected, caramel, biscuit, fruity hops. Taste is malty, sweet, with a slight resin and citrus rind with herbal hops a malty sweet fruit sweet with resin bitter finish. I don’t like this beer very much at all. The sweet fruit notes are sickly and the malt to present.
