Full, rich, deep, golden. One of my all-time favs since it's inception. Highest regards & praise to Driftwood that Twenty Pounder has been so rock solid all these years!

Great mix of pine and caramel, grapefruit. Lemon. Pretty potent, but well balanced at the same time. Golden pour with ok head. Bitter end. Subtle balance and well done. Can.

473mL can. Pours clear pale gold with white head. Aroma has tons of bright pine, bitter resin, sweet malts. Flavour has strong resinous pine with a long bitter finish. Malt backbone is present, but profile is dominated by the hops. Excellent.

473ml can. Pours a clear amber-gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready caramel malt, orange, mango, peach and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready caramel malt, orange, grapefruit rind, peach, mango, apricot and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Full body with an oily texture and average carbonation. ABV is well hidden. Tasty and almost juicy.

Bottle from Kump. Many thanks! Hazy amber colour, white foam. Sweet nose of passion fruit, papaya and citrus. Bitter hoppy. Very nice Dipa.

5/V/16 - 650ml bottle @ home - BB: n/a (2016-507) Thanks to JefVerstraete for sharing the bottle!
Clear orange beer, big creamy yellowish head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: bit cheesy, dank, resinous. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: very hoppy, fruity touch, very resinous, malty. Aftertaste: tropical fruits, pineapple, some passion fruit, very bitter resinous finish.

650ml bottle bought at Bottle Jockey. Pours almost clear golden with a white head. Intense aroma is piney and tropical fruits. Taste is sligtly sweet, piney and tropical fruit bitterness. Very bitter piney, resin aftertaste. Good balanced, but a little bit boozy. Good stuff!

Bottle, Legacy. Amber, with a bubbly head. Very floral, pears, mangoes and melons. Lean, fruity, with lots of hops, and a nice kiss of sweet pale malt. Quite bright. Less chewy than Fat Tug - go figure.
