Fresh bitter, herbal hoppy taste with sweet caramel malty notes as well. Fresh hoppy delicious scent.

[At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] A hazy orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet hoppy with light caramel notes. The flavor is sweet hoppy combined with notes of caramel, and flowers, leading to a good bitter hoppy end.

Draught. Copper coloured, small beige head. Fruity hoppy aroma. Hoppy flavour with fruity and metallic hints. Weak flavour, but IPA-like indeed.

Bottled:
Pours amberish, hazy brown with a dense head. Buttery aroma with some notes of nettles. Flavour is a little bit of butter followed by a long, dry and somewhat sharp, hoppy bitterness.

Sampled draught at Ardbeg Room, Stockholm.
Cloudy amber, small creamy head, Rich grapefruit aroma Dry, yet fruity. Firm, but bith clean mouthfeel. Very hoppy and extremely bitter. A well made hop monster of an IPA, US westcoast style.
