Bottle at home in the UK heat wave, 18th July 2013. Pours a thick rich drink, not much head. Aroma is pine sap, sour notes, taste is smooth, pine, a little citrus, some yeast elements, bitter finish with the malt cutting through. Excellent and very enjoyable DIPA

Slightly hazy gold, white head. Aroma of hops, tropical fruit, malts, honey, grass, light spices. Bitter flavour, hops, grapefruit, malts. Medium body. Lingering hop bitter finish, tropical fruits.
Nice brew, decent bitterness, refreshing. It does feel to be a bit on the safe side for a dipa though.
(From 33cL bottle, during RBESG 2013 @ the Rooie Dop brew dungeon. Thanks guys!)

Bottle as a road soda, directly from the bottle so I won’t comment on the appearance. Aroma is grapefruit upfront, with tropical fruit, pine,caramel and citrus. Flavour is light sweet and moderate bitter. Medium bodied with light carbonation.

Bottle from Rooie Dop, Utrecht at RBESG 2013. Poured a cloudy deep copper with a bubbly white head. The aroma is rich hops and fruit leading to a medium bitter, hoppy, grassy slightly spicy flavour. The alcohol is evident but its well controlled and adds to the flavour. A super beer. I’d like to taste one that is a little cooler. It might suit the beer.
