Bottle - Woody, pine and earthy hops, with a big malty backbone. Clear dark amber with a thin white head. More like an American Barleywine with big malty caramel and a bitter hoppy finish. Earthy and woody, very nice.

Hmm, en flaska från Brill. En riktig fin dubbel IPA. Smak och doft av humle, malt, karamell, pesika, aprikos. Lagom söt, stor kropp, tjock med en fin beska med smak och tall och grapefrukt.

Flaska från Brill som inte är purfärsk men heller inte gammal. En ganska mörk ornagebrun färg med lågt krämigt skum. En söt DIPA med rejäl maltkropp som får mig att tänka BW eller ASA, humlen är där, inte jättepigg men fortfarande maffig. Mycket karamel, grapemarmelad, tall, aprikos, persika, rejäl beska. Ett häftigt och gott öl, men inte riktigt min typ av DIPA å andra sidan är den riktgt välgjord och kroppen imponerar.

Ins Glas ergießt sich ein orangegoldenes Bier mit geringer aber schönen Schaumkrone. Geruch sehr malzig herb, fruchtig, tropische Früchte. Geschmack stark malzig bitter, fruchtig herb, minimal würzig.

Botella de 65 cl en la cantina de renfe (Avilés) Agosto de 2013. Una muy buena doble ipa, sabores y aromas algo dulces y un amargor final bastante bueno. Cuerpo medio, algo pastoso y fácil de beber. Muy buena para repetir sin duda.

Bottle. Pours hazy amber with a ton of small suspended particles. Small white head, dissipates quickly but leaves nice lacing. Aroma is way caramel - this has to be an old bottle, but hey Hoppin’ Frog, put a fucking bottling date on your beers or take what you get! Flavor is stale IPA, caramel, some pine, cardboard, random bitterness. Light sweet, quite bitter with almost no actual flavor nuances to go with it. Yuk. About 21 ounces of this baby was dumped into the hotel room toilet, which seems a fitting end for such an old stale beer.

Bottle @ WWT III. Hazy golden orange-ish colour with an off-white head. Nose is hoppy, tropical, a bit ashy. Flavour is light caramel malts, hoppy, tropical, mango and pine. Fairly bitter. Finish is slightly sweet and fairly bitter.

One of the best IPA’s I ever had. Very hoppy, but with a soft caramel touch. The combination is brilliant.
