Tap. Surprisingly dark brownish color with big head. Aroma is hoppy, tropical fruits, resinous, . Taste is bread, nice mango & grapefruit hop punch, honey and caramel as well. Bitter finish. Quite full-bodied as well (not surprising at this ABV). A very good APA, but it doesn’t hold up well.

Tap@ Mikkeller bar. Piny aroma all over. Some caramel, pine, wood in flavor. Drinkable but pine dominates, perhaps too much, at least for me.
