On keg at Robin Hood, Pontefract - Clear amber body, thick cream top. Big boozy nose, biscuits, syrupy caramel, pine, indigestion inducing alcohol burn at the end. A nice sipper.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Pours a clear amber with tiny, floating impurities and a lacing, white head. Typical American biscuit aroma - not so much hop aroma though. Rich, super sweet and sugary body - almost cloying. Biscuit and crystal malts. Super bitter finish. 100225

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is resinous hops with malt, pine resin, grapefruit, sugary orange, some alcohol, hint of caramel. More robust pine resin. Strong AF bittersweet flavour with a sticky alcoholic finish. Good body. Powerful.
