At a tasting, thanks, smallish head, light hazy darkish orange to red color ,aroma of cooked jammy fruits with honey, same fruity flavor with the honey and a lemony hint, very sweet and heavy, much too bitter. Over the top and difficult to drink.

Hazy amber beer, filmy head. Boozy, spicy citrus aroma. Taste is grapefruit, malt, grassy hop and a splash of something sweeter to mellow it out. Really boozy in the finish and it's very much a sipper but it's nice.

Botella 33 cl en el Kraken 18..11..2017. (r193). Lote y fcpref ilegibles en etiqueta. Color ámbar miel turbio con espuma blanca persistente. Sabores dulces intensos maltosos y cereales con suaves toques melosos y melaza. Suaves afrutados y poco amargo. Cuerpo medio a intenso con buena sensación alcohólica desde el principio. Denso y espumoso. Bastante buena para repetir sin duda.

T42 tasting on me Birfaday. Big thanks to Leighton. Very hazy amber beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is smooth, mildly dry and has decent fine carbonation. Caramel - toffee malts, light creamy sweetness. Orange marmalade and mild hop spice. Soft dry finish. A bit malt forward and lacking any hop brightness, but it’s okay.

Bottle split at Level 42, thanks to LKS, 07/09/16. Murky amber with a moderate off white head. Nose is dank hop, herbal, straw, harsh citric rinds, caramel. Taste comprises bitter tropical fruits, orange rind, pine resin, sharp citric. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with aggressive hop bitterness. Ok DIPA if a touch overly harsh.

Bottle shared in London in honor of Kenny’s birthday. Pours unclear ruby-orange with a frothy, off-white head. The nose has lots of toasted crackers, caramel, earth. Medium to heavy sweet flavour with lots of ripe, jammy citrus, orange, marmalade, earth, wood, caramel. Full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Warming and resinous on the finish, with lots of bready malts, earth, oily pine. So so overall.

On tap at Howells & Hood. Hazy amber with a medium head. Fresh and hoppy with grapefruit, pineapple, hay and some hints of cookies. The finish was bitter. A tasty one.

12oz bottle via Mystery Box BIF. Pours a translucent, burnt orange with some lacing, thin white head. Nose is very old school DIPA, big pithy orange, grapefruit, gobs of fresh pine sap, soap. Flavor has the honey sweetness, a bit boozy actually, orange grapefruit, loads of pine, soap, some candy, a little artificial lemon. Full bodied, sticky finish. A little heat from the alcohol too.
