Can. Hazy golden colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is tropical fruits with some slight oats and mild alcohol sweetness. Flavour is fruity, some mild nectar, alcohol and some slight oaty tones with fruit juice concentrate sweetness. Very sweet, and alcohol burn on the gum too.

17th July 2022, Quarry Tasting; 440ml can between four, cheers Mike for this. Hazy yellow body, decent white head. As you'd expect this was citrussy in nature and boozy by design.

440ml can @ Quarry Tasting, July 22. Hazed deep yellow appearance, good white head. Good fruity nose. Nice plump fleshy exotics to taste, very high drinkability, light and milky in feel. Good stuff.

Pours a hazed warm yellow. Medium small to small, fairly stable and creamy white head. Scent is powerfull and robust creamy, hoppy ( citric, orange and yellow citrusfruits) , bit booze. Taste is full, very sweet, creamy, medium bitter. very booze forward ( I know it's 12, but still). Higher ABV than the beer needs, no doubt about that. Bit drying on the palate, by a combo of the enormous amounts of hops, malts, remaining sweetness - not at all because it's a dry beer, since it's pretty far from it. A beer thats just a bit too much, would have been more enjoyable with lower ABV and better balance.

Can from Tidens Farver @ Home. Pours hazy yellow with a white head, lacings. Aroma of light malt, rich fruity hops, lots of citrus, orange, grapefruit. Flavor is rather sweet, malty, sweet rich fruity hops, tropical fruit, citrus orange, grapefruit, alcohol. Medium to full body, soft to average carbonation, sweet finish with some warming alcohol. Pretty smooth for the high ABV.

Can. What Alegrin said below - this is not a QIPA at 12.0%. That said, smooth and drinkable for its barleywine level abv. The palate is also quite light but has decent fine carbonation. Smooth creamy malts. Soft but fairly rich citrus, good mix of bright and ripe orange with a nice touch of pink grapefruit. Little tropical fruits, but set well back. Smooth and mild pine. Little nibbly hop spice. Love the Citra here. The Strata is somewhat outmuscled but perhaps light touches of passion fruit and strawberry. Lovely stuff.

28/VII/21 - on tap @ Bar Beenhouwer (Gent), BB: n/a (2021-684)

Little cloudy orange beer, small creamy yellowish head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: nice, sweet ripe tropical fruits, mango, passion fruits, lots of fresh oranges, some peaches, orange juice, little dank, good stuff going on here! MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: pretty sweet start, very fruity, lots of sticky residual sugar, notes of mango, quite some alcohol, orange peel, good bitterness, hint of lactose. Aftertaste: slightly soapy, sweet, very fruity, bit of a hop burn, pineapple, hoppy finish, decent if a bit heavy maybe… More a fan of lower ABV IPA’s here.
