What started out as a little bit of fun quickly became the favourite of many die hard ale fans and has become permanent. Probably best described stylistically as a Californian IPA, this beer has all the rich malt and fruit flavours of a Barley Wine combined with the hoppy crispness of a Pale Ale. And as best said by one of its biggest fans, "Hoppiness = Happiness."

Draught @ Drink Baar
Aroma is rather fruity with caramel. Lots of caramel. Also some resin and toffee. Flavour is fruity with berries and gooseberry bush. Aroma was nice but flavour is too much on the harsh bitter side.

Besides Thornbridge Halcyon, this is the best IPA from England I’ve had. Juicy citrus and grapefruit hop notes in the aroma and flavor, well balanced by the caramel malts. The color was slightly off, like a butterscotch amber, not quite what I was expecting. Nice abv, could be slightly more, would love to see it in the 7-8% range, but 6.5% is fine. Finish is bitter and resiny, great full mouthfeel. As this one warmed up a bit, some lovely caramel malt character came out, making the finish even more smooth. Really nice.

A orange-yellow beer with a dense, quite big and blond head. The nose of fructose sweetenss, fruits, some tropical fruits, caramell, peaches and citrusfruits. Taste is balancing between the fructose and slightly caramelly sweetness against the medium bitterness. The bitterness is strong enough even the sweetness is quite strong. Some pine needles, hint of tropical fruits, the end is piney and dry, some peppermint. Medium+ bodied, low carbonation. Quite balanced IPA, slightly too caramelly for me, also should be more fresh.

(Bottle, 0.66 l, at Drink Baar, 20131125) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, honey and pine. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, pine, grass, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A very good hoppy brew, well balanced.

Draught @ You’ll Never Walk Alone in Kolding. Pours hazy light amber with stable white head. Clear aroma of hops, with regular notes of citrus and grassy touches. Bitter, intense hoppy flavour, with notes of grass, citric touches, and subtle hints of malt. Lingering hoppy finish. Very well balanced and delicious. Really good.

BBE 31 Oct 2014 - Pours dark orange with a smooth and bubbly white head. Aroma of resinous hops, grass, citrus, lemon, grapefruit, zesty fruitness and pine. Taste is hoppy, caramely malty and citrusy with loads of zesty fruits, pine and resinous notes. Finish is sweetish, crisp, zesty and juicy hoppy with loads of pine, grass, resin and citrus. Nice, well balanced and tasty West Coast IPA. Great stuff.
