ondoorzichtig gouden met volle witte kraag, te hoog op koolzuur tijdens het schenken. Aroma van sinaasappel, mout, gist, en zoet. Smaken van sinaasappel, alcohol, hop, mout, matig zoet, glad, fruitig, sinaasappel overheerst, medium body, teveel co2.

Light copper, slightly hazy. Average sized white head, ok retention and lacing. Nice aroma shows a crackery malts backbone, citric notes and a refreshing feel that stands in the middle of grassy and piney. Quite simple, but clean and vivid. Very much the same in taste, with the slightest bit of spiciness. Medium to high sweet and medium to high bitter, overall well balanced with a dry bitter finish. Alcohol is very well hidden. Medium bodied, nicely smooth for the abv, with average carbonation. Wasn't super fresh but held very well. A nice iipa.

Pours light copper, a lot of head, not very good retention though. Aroma is malty and sweet, a lot of herbal-resiny hops. The west coast hops is really prominent. Big body. Flavour is also dominated by west coast hops (Amarillo if course): a lot of resinous pine and herbal spiciness. Supported by a big malt backbone. Like all de molen beers this is rather sweet, but not cloyingly so; it works with the hoppiness. Classic west coast Imperial IPA, almost a tad too sweet but still very nice. Finishes bittersweet, hoppy.

33 cl. bottle @ home,bought @ W. van Schaik, Vianen. Hazy amber with a white head. Hoppy aroma with some tropical fruit. Bitter and malty taste. 8 months old is maybe a bit too old for these kind of beers, it was more malty than hoppy, but this still was an enjoyable beer.

Flesje. Lekker hopig aroma. Tegenvallend: goede amber kleur, maar veel gistvlokken in het glas (toch staand bewaard en voorzichtig geschonken). Smaak is wel weer prima.
