Well crafted, top to bottom. A lush orange/caramel body with a solid, well laced off-white head. The nose features dank hops from the dry hopping, dried fruit, booze and bready malt. The dank hops continue in the taste profile. Rindy hops, caramel, dried sweet fruit, apricots and smooth sweet malt work well together. A balanced finish, rich but not sticky body and roasted malt aftertaste all work for me.

Pours a slight clouded brownish or age amber. Not huge head but white. Strong citrus smell. Similar taste. Slight cream.

From tap at Mikkeller & Friends, Reykjavik. Aroma of fruits, orange, tangerine, malt, caramel, pine resin, aromatic hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a medium to heavy bitter finish. Body is full and rich. Nice piney IIPA.

Can. This one is 8.5%. Appearance - amber to copper. And bright. Lovely fluffy off white head. Nose - cake mixture and candied orange. Taste - baked cake and slightly burnt. Palate - close to medium bodied with a crunchy texture. Dry crunchy finish. Overall - good, if not really an IPA.

Bottle from the Great Beer Bar, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a clear medium to dark amber with a big lasting frothy white head. The aroma is big resin, woody hop, light fruit. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a crisp, malt, resin, light fruit, big dry woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Deep copper with a white head. Strong citrus and resinous hops balanced by a hefty malt presence. Full body. Finish is lightly sweet but with plenty of rough hop bitterness. Good brew.

bottle - Cloudy amber pour, smells of resinous hops and some citrus. The flavor is of course big on the hops bitterness. There's pine and a little citrus along with some caramel malt. Very good.
