It’s Old Man Bitter
A mix of citrus and pine that will remind you of the time you went on a vision quest with your Native American cousin and you woke up in a pine grove full of grapefruit trees.
An American-style India Pale Ale with a deep golden-orange color. Bitter and hoppy, with a surprisingly smooth finish.
Modus Hoperandi, an IPA sitting at 6.8% ABV and 65 IBUs.

Amber with an off white head - good flowery hoppy aroma - A good malt to support a nice hop flavour with flowers and grass and there is a good bitterness to it as well - the bitterness goes into the finish and is olmost dry - This was good and easy to enjoy

Can. Vibrant browny amber beer with a very strong dense foamy head. The aroma is strongly hopped, and the flavour is very, very well hopped with a long bitter and dry finish. Overall a nice IPA. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

2013... Un beau cadeau d’un ami qui est allé se promener par là. Bien résineuse, elle colle au palais mais manque un peu de corps. 6/4/8/4/15=3.7/4.0
2017... Canette portant la mention meilleure avant le 1er mars 2017, dégustée le 28 mars 2017 (oui, ça arrive). La mousse est vraiment dense et le breuvage ambré. C’est très sucré et l’alcool est non perceptible. Son âge a probablement beaucoup atténué l’influence des houblons mais c’est vraiment bon. Le profil malté me rappelle certains Barleywines.

Split a 12oz can. Poured a pretty clear amber color, medium sized white head, carbonation. Aroma was pine, grapefruit notes, caramel notes. Flavor was grapefruit, mango, crisp pine notes. Very refreshing, very tasty.

Bottle via trade with brokephibroke. Hazy medium orange-brown body, medium creamy buff head. Crisp, clean nose of citrus, flower petals, and toasty malts. Bitter body, lots of citrus rind and some pine; bready malts and yeast. Quite nice.

355 ml. can from Systembolaget, poured in to a tulip. Clear, deep orange colour with a thin, off-white head. Fruity aroma with citrus, pines and grapefruit. A good amount of caramel malts. Taste is light sweet. Medium body, creamy texture, average carbonation. Good mouth feel for an IPA. Finishes bitter and dry with hops and a hint of resin-cookies. Very good IPA.

Location: Can from Central Market, 6/3/13
Aroma: The nose is clean and hoppy with a nice pine presence, resin, and some grapefruit
Appearance: It pours a clear caramel-orange color with a thick foam of beige head
Flavor: The taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, with a mid-heavy pine/resin bitterness
Palate: The feel is smooth and creamy, with a soft carbonation, and a dry finish
Overall Impression: Thought this one was a very solid IPA. I don't believe that I've had the pleasure of trying any SKA beers before, but this one was a nice foray into their offerings, and I will surely return.
