(Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm, 22 Jan 2014) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, orange peel, resin and crystal malt. Malty, hoppy taste with resin, pine needles, citrus peel, pink grapefruit, crisp malt and a fairly dry finish with a generous citric, piney bitterness. More than medium body, fairly dry. Tasty and refreshing. Nice one.

Bottle thanks to Leighton at the Night of Garbage. It pours cloudy orange-amber with a medium beige head. The nose is fresh, orange, marmalade, candy, grapefruit, some dank mustiness, hay and mango. The taste is bitter-sweet, resinous, orange, tangerine, mango, varnish, wood polish, alcohol warmth and a touch of astringency with a bitter, resinous finish. Medium body, soft carbonation and sticky mouth-feel. Quite a hefty brew actually. Nice orange citrus character, but I doubt I could drink much of it. Tasty nonetheless.

Taste is malty, hoppy and a bit musty with notes of grass and citrus. Finish is hoppy, caramely and malty with some musty notes. Long lasting hoppy notes. A bit unbalanced, quite malty DIPA.
