330ml bottle. Cloudy, orangey dark golden to amber colour with average, thick, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy and minimally herbal hoppy aroma, notes of grapefruit, a touch of resin and pine. Taste is bitter hoppy and somehow bitter malty, hints of bitter almond, some sweaty resin, bitter hoppy overtones with herbal, mineral and chalky hints; surpressed citrusy hop notes with hints of grapefruit, orange and lemon gain slightly more weight in the finish. Not fully satisfying, lots of "un-aromatic" bitterness.

A hazy, orange yellow beer with an almost medium and blond head. The nose has tropical fruits, mangos, fructose, citrusfruits, some pine needles, balanced. Taste has tropical fruits, lots of sweetness of fructose, quite strong bitterness that dries the sweetness, pine needles. Almost full bodied, medium carbonation is lightening the drinkability. Slightly heavy DIPA. Good beer, anyway.

330ml bottle from Bottledog, drunk on the train. Pours hazy, rusty orange, sumptuous resin, vibrant pine and a lingering bitterness on the finish. Beautiful.

Smakprov på CBC 2014. En tung maffig DIPA med mycket grape och tall med en rejäl beska. Rena smaker. Maffig och riktigt god.

Bottle from Cornelius. Hazy amber body with a thick white head. Steady carbonation. Nice lacing. Aroma of pine, green apple, mango and minerals. Flavour is quite flinty and botanical - it’s like a beery gin and tonic. Faint tropical fruit flavours try to get through. Huge bitterness. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture. Soft fizz. A big, potent IPA with a nice mineral quality.
