Bottle thnx to Steasy66 . Split payed and sampled with ST247 Pours clear blonde. good white head . Smell is bit fruity , the same burnt-aspect-fruityness as I had in Zeelander . Perfect carbo . Full bodied, bit bitter, fruity, heavy taste . Some dark-bitter tastes , gentle yet intense . The taste is almost to be named as ’smokey’ but not quite that , as this is way better . Very interesting taste , very different and unique , and a damn good one ! Aftertaste is sweet, fruity, bit bitter, fleshy even almost . Very interesting beer !

Bottle with thanks to Pepsi! Pours crystal clear orange with a small off-white head and some lacing. Aroma is pine and spruce forward, like walking through an evergreen forest, complete with dank wet leaves. Flavor is lightly sweet and light bitter, dank, but not harsh. Medium body, oily mouthfeel and a fair amount of bitterness in the far finish. Interesting.

22oz bomber. Unfiltered orange-tan body. Foamy, steady white head. Medium bodied, but with a massive solid hop bill. Dryish amarillo-ish strawy tones at first. Some orange, mellow tangerine, a hint of melon in the aroma. The tropical tones comes out the more you sip at it. Some pungent mango, guava, pink grapefruit start to show up. Pretty much all a beer enthusiast could ask for in a Pale Ale in late 2013. Clean malt backbone and a hefty new school hop barrage. Great stuff.
