Diablo is our flagship IPA, loaded with US hop varieties, dominated by the ‘Citra’ variety. Big tropical flavours & aroma punctuate, mango, lychee & papaya fruits abound, with notes of resinous pine leading to a lasting bitterness. A devilishly good US West Coast inspired IPA.

Cask - hazy golden beer a good creamy head. Light grapefruit aroma. Flavour is also light grapefruit, hop and something a touch more sour which I can’t place for balance. Very tasty.

Gulbrun tåkete med hvitt skum. Sitrus og beskjeden humlelukt. Humlen kommer mer fram i smak sammen med noe syrlig sitrussmaker. Lang bitter ettersmak.

10.07.2014, 0,33l bottle @ home:
Nice creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly sweet grassy, caramel malts, grain, lawn, sap, leafs, hops, hay, flowers, hints of citrus. Taste is slightly harsh grassy, pine needles, bark, leafs, soil, grass, hops, minerals, citrus peel, alcohol, flowers. Longlasting bitterness, dry slightly harsh mouthfeel. Fair enough.

Bottle, at Øltorget, Vulkan. It’s a hazy, golden beer with a small, off-white head leaving lacings. There’s lots of grapefruit on the nose, pine cones, some tropical fruits and a touch of malts. The flavor is quite bitter, the hops dominates for sure, with grapefruit, pine cones and some tropical fruits. The malts are pushed to the back, leaving just traces of sweetness. Medium body, dry on the palate, with a nice carbonation level. Lasting bitter finish with grapefruits and bitterness. A tasteful, easy drinkable beer with a tad too much bitterness I think. 140503

Bottle [thanks for bringing this for me jmgreenuk] @ home. Slightly unclear yellow color, small white head. Aroma is lightly malts, grassy hops, slightly hay. Taste is light to maderately malty, again mostly grassy hops with a refreshing bitterness. Decent body and suitable carbonation. Nice beer.
