High in alcohol, and heavily hopped with Simcoe, Chinook and Nectaron, this Imperial IPA showcases citrus and tropical fruit notes.
Ending with a long, lingering bitterness that shows the hop complexity and aroma, Free Fall is not for the faint of heart.

473ml can. Pours a clear copper amber with a small, foamy, long lasting, ecru head that leaves curtains of lace. Aroma of spicy rye malt, caramel, grapefruit, floral and piney hops. Flavour of spicy rye malt, caramel, orange peel, peach and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with a sticky, oily texture and average carbonation. Well balanced and tasty.

47,3 cl can @ Timo A’s Go Nucks! tasting. BBE 23.07.2019 Aroma has some caramel and toffee. Also some resiny notes. Flavour has resiny malt. Finishes with menthol and alcohol. Not that good but decent anyway.

473mL can, pours a clear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out a rich resinous hop character upcoming, and a caramel malt backbone. Flavour is wonderfully rich, with lots of resinous hops upfront, backed with loads of caramel malt. Balanced beautifully, with a big malt backbone that doesn't over-sweeten. This is excellent.

Tap Pours a copper color with moderate head. Doughy malts and jammy stoned fruit.

Bottle from O'Hare's, Richmond
Hazy blond colour. Some aroma of blond malt, sugar, dank hops. Moderately sweet, but lean; correct malt base, the hop brings mostly the bitterness but it's not very expressive, a bit resiny, a bit vegetable.
Ok beer.

Golden-amber with a slight bit of haze. Thick head. The aroma is quite dank, with a touch of orange and some cheesiness. On the palate, there is some orange, and there's some sweet sweet malts. Not bad, but not dynamic either.
