Bottle from Sterk Amsterdam. Aroma is herbal tea, orange peel, hops, pine resin, malt, bit candied fruits, touch caramel. Flavour is almost medium sweet with a fairly bitter finish. Body is medium. Lacks fresh fruity hoppiness, but this is enjoyable if you dig a lot of herbal tea in your IIPA. I quite liked it.

Flesje gedeeld door Tomhendriksen (tht.29-09-2018). Oranje tot amberkleurig bier met flinke schuimkraag. Aroma en smaak is hoppig en harsig. Geen nasmaak. De lage score zal wel komen doordat deze fles over datum was.

Fles geprobeerd met Inoven. Het is een helder oranje tot koperkleurig bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een hoppige wat tropische vruchten achtige geur. De smaak is hoppig, bitter en harsig. De smaak is zeer snel weg.

Bottle from de Caigny, dated 29/09/17 BB 29/09/18. Hazy orange golden color, short frothy head, some tiny particles. Aroma of caramel malt like a big malty DIPA, piney fruit, orange marmalade. Medium to high bitterness, pine, tropical fruit, marmalade, caramel malt. Quite thick and marmalade like, maybe a bit too much, but it has a real american feel to it. Bit weird herbal toothpaste and plastic in the finish.
