This hop monster uses Premium American 2– Row and a touch of light crystal malt to create a solid malt foundation. Five different Hop Varieties are used in the Hop Juice. Now dry hopped with Mosaic for great aroma. Starts out sweet and finishes with the crisp bitterness of a Triple IPA.

Bouteille 355ml. Oragé léger, col crémeux blanc-casé. Arôme est bien houblonné renfermé, agrumes et résineux mais dont la caractère des quais 10% ressort bien. Malt perce en rétro. Palais sur une effervescence moyenne-haute avec un alcool bien marqué voire un peu trop présent et de ce fait cachant un peu du caractère des houblons. Retrouve un côté houblonné huileux, résineux qui reste cependant bien agréable. Caramel résiduel presque biscuité-crystal légèrement collant aux lèvres.

355ml bottle. Clear, orangey golden colour with average, thick, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Piney, hoppy aroma with a touch of glue, condensed notes of orange and candied orange zest, some lemongrass, cautious hints of green Thai curry, liquorice. Taste is biting bitter hoppy, resinous and piney, caramel malty basis with almond touch, chalky overtones. Dense and concentrated - may work as nutrition for astronauts, but not for me.

Botella 33 cl tomada en el momento en Cimmeria 19-09-2015. (r776). Lote ZBLCHJ1 hasta 05-2016. Color ámbar bronce transparente con poca espuma blanca. Aromas y sabores intensos maltosos y lupulos maduros que persisten durante un buen rato. Cuerpo medio a intenso con buena sensación alcohólica y algo pastoso que hacen que cueste beberla. Buena.

A dark yellow beer, a head is small and blond. Aroma has caramel malts, peaches, some tropical notes and pine. Taste has caramel malts, the bitterness is nicely balancing the sweetness, pine, some herbs. Long lasting bitterness. Medium+ bodied, not sticky. Not so fresh anymore, probably quite old bottle. The strong bitterness is balancing this caramelly DIPA.

Light amber color with a white head with good retention. Aroma has resins notes with good maltiness. Flavor is mild citrusy with strong hoppy notes and some peachy hints. Good maltiness in the final with a decent bitterness.

Taste is slightly dry and concentrated grassy, hops, leafs, lawn, pine needles, citrus peel, weeds, light malts, alcohol. Longlasting bitterness, slightly dry and harsh mouthfeel. Fair enough.

This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a hazy to transparent bronzed color with a slim finger’s worth of white foaminess that dissipated immediately leaving clingy messy lacing.
The smell had some herbal to floral sweetness rolling over a caramel maltiness.
The taste copied the smell staying sweet throughout . Barely any bitterness showed any presence. Slight caramel aftertaste and a semi-dry finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. Carbonation seemed decent for the style and for me. The herbal quality puncuates the palate to create a decent smoothness.
Overall, if the bitterness was brought up on this one...yeah, could be way better.
