Bottle from the Great Beer Bar, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a clear golden colour with a big frothy white head. The aroma is biscuit malt, light fruit, light woody hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a malt, big dry woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Very bitter and a little one dimensional.

Can at home, Nivala. Color is clear dark orange with small white head. Aromas and flavors: Some fruits, pine, caramel, harshness, some hops and malts. Musty and quite bad drinkability.

Can @ home shared with Inoven and TomHendriksen. Clear orange golden color, medium to full sized white to off-white head that lasts for a decent while and leaves fair lacing. Aroma is malts, huge hops, piney spruce. Tastes about the same: malts, hops, pine, spruce, slightly tropical fruit hoppy and nicely bitter. Medium body and carbonation. Nice!

Can 355ml (Beer Republic, BB 11/22/17)
Clear dark amber colour, small steady off-white head. A bit bready aroma with some pine and caramalt. Medium-bodied. Piney hoppyness with some fruits andresin. Crystal malty backbone. Decent bitterness but aroma has lost its charm.

On tap. Pours a hazy amber-orange with a medium, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that laces nicely. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, grapefruit, peach, pine and grass. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, grapefruit, pine and grass with a dry, bitter, hoppy finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Not bad.
