Bottled@Örsted Ölbar, Copenhagen. Deep orangeish amber colour with small head. Aroma is pineapple, peach, some nectary sweetness as well as mild grass and wood. Flavour is quite hoppy, not too sweet, even though being fruity. A quite normal DIPA, wellbalanced and drinkable.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a little semi-creamy and off-white head. Aroma is fresh citrus fruity with a light caramel malt base. Flavour is solid caramel malt and sweet with a very distinct yet complex hops profile, fruity, slight liqourice note, slight woody and medium dry into the finish. Ends smooth and lingering dried fruity bitter. Nice

2011-02-03, bottled 070607, 3½ years old, 7-5-8-5-15=40
Hazy dark amber color; creamy head. The hop aroma is basically gone; now there is aroma of caramel, with reminescences of Belgian beers. Strong body, and strong caramel flavor, with some residual sweetness; powerful bitterness, the hopping left also aggressive piney resins; the final is long, peristent, with some alcohol warmth too. Not more aromatic, but still a very solid beer.
2010-04-19, bottled 070607, 3 years old, 7-5-8-4-15=39
Cloudy amber-brown color; small creamy head. Some caramel and malt aroma, then old hops and yeast, almost English. Chewy caramel and malt flavor; strong bitterness; the hops couldn’t keep the aromatic qualities, but there is still a decent presence of resins and bitter oranges. Strong final. Still quite complex, but obviously not fresh.

Cloudy amber color; creamy head. Very nice hoppy aroma, fruity, and with caramel. Powerful mouthfeel, excellent caramel aroma, with an extreme hopping, very rich. One of the best Danish beers.
2007-09-15, draught at Plan B, Copenhagen, 8-5-7-5-16=41
Beautiful cloudy red-amber color; creamy head; wonderful sticky lace. Massive aroma, hoppy, fruity (apricots), light aroma of pine needles too, and delicate aroma of hop flowers. Correct body structure, maybe less sweet than expected (wanted), with a lot of caramel/toffee flavor, and again an extreme hopping; the hop has a lot of qualities, there are some dry resins, but less fruity than the aroma suggested. The final is of course etremely long and strong. Excellent, but maybe the bottle is better.

Beautiful amber color, hazy; big head. The aroma is hoppy, fruity, a bit spicy, with hop resins, very light vanilla. Medium body structure, with a very good malt taste without being sticky. The hopping is bold, more balanced in the beginning and rising towards the end; very long final. Very well brewed.
2007-01-31, bottle, 7-4-7-4-14=36
Hazy amber color; huge head. The aroma is delicate with hops and some pine needles. Medium mouthfeel, the malt profile is not extremely accented, but there is immediately a very strong bitterness, with some hop aromas and some hop resins. I like the style, but this example is a bit rough.
