Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Dutchdrebus and Joes. Hazy dark orangy color, average sized white to off-white head. Aroma is malts, sweetness, sweet hops. Taste malts, hops, lightly sweet, slightly resinous and piney, bitter, a hint of something weird. Medium body and carbonation. Decent.

330ml bottle. Clear, pale reddish amber colour with average, thick, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white to beige head. Sweet-ish, resinous, fruity, hoppy aroma, hints of lingonberry and other red berries. Taste is slightly sweet caramel malty with a touch of toffee, dry and minimally bitter hoppy overtones, hints of red fruit, fruit parings, peanuts, a lemon touch. Cautious, not overly intense, especially not on the hop side. Though now "Dual Hop Craft Beer" no improvement compared to the old "Single Hop Craft Beer"-version.

Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice creamy head. Starts intense hoppy, flowery, dry, light notes of alcohol, not too much. More and more spicy, strong, grasy. Bitter background. Fruity notes of grapefruit. Well balanced hoppy-bitter finish. Really nice!

33cl bottle, bb 01/15. Label says dual hop craft beer. Mahogany color, thin white head, not much co2. Nutty and caramelly nose, some soaked plums as well. Flavor has caramel, raisins, sweetness, bread. Sweet dark fruity, abv nicely hidden, not sticky sweet fortunately. Overall a musty, stuffy and quite dull beer.

bottle from the brewer. Hazy, deep golden-red colour, mid-siuzed off-white head leaving lacework. Lovely hop aroma. Full-bodied, malty base that supports the delicious hops very well. Fruity, tropcial, slightly citrusy. Delicious and perfectly balanced. Another superb beer from a superb brewer.
