(355ml bottle from Systembolaget, ~2 months old) Pours clear ruby-amber with a decent size doff white head that fades with lacing. Aroma of intense mix of sweet caramel malts and candied fruit notes - pineapple, apricot, citrus, resin, pine, light bread, an aromatic woody note. Flavor is also intense, that quite sweet caramel malt core has some bready layers, and then there is a fair hit of hop resin, quite pine-heavy. Some dried fruit notes but nothing really jumps out. Pine resin, needles, earth and citrus pith join booze in a fairly dry, aggressively bitter finish. A bit of menthol in the dry aftertaste. Medium bodied, average carbonation. Feels like something between an IPA and a massively hopped barleywine thanks to the sweet malts and more piney, bitter hops. Pretty intense, perhaps not extremely drinkable.

Flaska från SB. Mörk bärnstensfärg som drar åt rött, klar, lågt skum. Doft av frukt och bär som aprikos, persika, hjortron i någon typ av alkohollag typ cognac, mörk kola, karamell och resen. Samma fruktighet som i doften, kola och en massiv resinbeska. Trots det relativt drickbar, ganska komplex med fler lager i smakerna. Stabil men inte tung kropp och bra balans om man kan säga det om en så här extrem öl. Maffigt.

(Bottle, 0.355 l - bottled on 05/10/16, from Alko, 20160722) The beer poured deep amber and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had booze, sweetness and glue. Palate was medium bodied and warming with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, booze, resin, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was boozy and bitter. A sweet boozy mess.

What a lovely color! Deep amber with a fine off white head. Looks just great. Nice intensity in the aroma also. Lots of hops and fruity. Full body and a fine smooth carbonation. No cloying sweetness. It is of course a lot of sweetness here, but the bitterness backs it well up. Oily texture. Solid complex stuff. Grapefruit hoppy, tropical, toffee, pine and dried fruits. Some boozy notes, but still very well masked for an ale at only 12%. Great stuff!

Founders Devil Dancer Triple IPA 12% Bottle at Imazato shared with Marco.
A deep reddish orange with a filmy beige head. A boozy dank fruity pine aroma. The taste is boozy, heat, resinous fruit (apricot, plums) and candied caramel. Tasty stuff but too boozy.
