From tap at Utrechtse Bierbrouwers Festival 2017. Aroma is malt, some caramel, and mild fruity hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a fairly long bitter finish. Body is medium. Not a bad malt-forward IPA, but severely lacks the profound fruity juicy character of a NE IPA.

(Draught at Café Derat, Utrecht, 26 July 2017) Hazy amber colour with frothy, white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of orange peel, apricots, caramel and some grapefruit. Malty, fruity taste with orange peel, apricots and a balanced spicy/citric bitterness in the finish. Almost full body, with a slight sweetness. Tasty, with a fresh hop character. Nice one.

Can at home, 10th June 17. Like the can and the reference in the bottom ’the only thing we fear is shitty beer’. Whilst it’s not shitty, it’s not great either. Pours dark amber, aroma is malt, caramel, light fruit. Taste is malty, some sweetness, not so much bitter hops. OK.

Can from Burg, BB 08/05/2018 (so about 4 wks old), 33 cl sample. Almost clear amber color, short crothy head. Aroma has citrussy hop and tropical fruit, some caramel and toffee, and some butterscotch and unrefined sugar note. Soft bitterness, quite some caramel malty body, hint of alcohol, bit butterscotch again. Guess they wanted more fruit in it, as it is more malt forward at the moment. Decent beer, but I doubt it was what they originally intended. --- Beer merged from original tick of Barbarian Fishing v1 on 14 Jul 2017 at 07:07 - Score: 7

Sampled thanks to tricksta_p. Hazy orange color, medium sized beige head. Smell malts, hops, not too special. Taste malts, hops, lightly diacetyl in the background, solid bitterness. Decent body and carbonation. Drinkable, but as an Imperial IPA: not good imo.
