Bottle courtesy of Summer Euro-Santa. Pours hazy pale brown with a huge frothy and rocky offwhite head that slowly dissipates while leaving lots of spotty trace on the glass. Smell is malty and fruity with caramel, sweet dark bread, grapefruit juice, raisins, moist grass, pine needles, moist soil and lemon zest. Taste is sweet, bitter, slightly malty and tiny fruity. Mouthfeel is tiny round, slightly astringent and medium bodied. Finish is tiny sweet and slightly bitter with crispbread, caramel, grapefruit juice, raisins, moist grass, moist soil and lemon zest. Strange one this. Has a sherry raisin vibe to it which I assume is due to oxidation but can’t say I’m sure. Considering bottle says it was bottles in May it shouldn’t be in this kind of state. Might be the surprisingly dark malt base playing tricks on me...

330 ml bottled June 2015, shared by Werckmeister, thanks!
Amber-copper, hazy body, with a massive, frothy, lacing, light beige head.
Aroma of citrus, vanilla, grass, orange, candy, herbs.
Tastes of grass, lemon zest, herbs, orange, some candy.
Medium, quite creamy mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes bitter, quite dry, zesty, grassy, herbal.
OK, but quite weird. Not how I like an IPA, with lots of herbal notes and too less fruits. Pretty unbalanced overall.

330 ml bottle at home from my Secret Santa Clockk, many thanks. Shared with Saeglopur. Bottled 04.06.2015. BB 12/2015. amber quite hazy color, quite big off-white head. smells of spices, a bit milky, light vegetables, some herbs. dont really dig the smell. medium body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes of spices, vegetables, some herbs, some grass, citric notes, oranges, soap. finishes rather herbal bitter and with some spices. hmm, overall a bit weird one, has an unclean taste, not too much IPA character either, overall not not so much my thing.
