Red brown, hazy beer with medium head. Aroma has exotic fruits, tree, malts, bread and caramel. Taste has exotic fruits but also lots of malts and bread with caramel. Soft and creamy body. End is bitter with grapefruit. Winter version of DIPA, and this might be a bit too heavy and malty.

Smell of hops. Brown / dark red colour, beige head. Aroma of hops, mango, spruce. Bitter with some alcohol sweetness. Very basic (imperial) IPA, not too christmas-y by any means. Flat carbon, slightly oily texture.

50cl bottle from Alko. Poured reddish brown color with a thick off white head. Dark fruity aroma, pineapples, malts. Really nice aroma, just what I like in these red ales. Smooth mouthfeel. Fruity hops in flavor, caramel malts, nice bitterness. No sign of the abv. Long malty finish, hoppy burps. Lovely.
