50 cl bottle on February 20, 2016, thanks to Ingo! From Systembolaget.Batch 924, BB 2017-10-21.Clear copper color, white head with lacing. Bitter, pith, hoppy taste. Bitter, pith aftertaste, some menthol/minty like toothpaste or breathmint as well. Medium mouthfel, medium high bitterness. Spicy, alcohol scent.Bitterness gets to much power, also that minty feeling is nothing I find joy with.

Flaska från SB. En välhumlad APA/IPA. Osäker på var det belgiska kommer in. Fina fruktiga dofter och smaker. Citrus, aprikos, persika, tallskott och karamell. Relativt stor resinbeska. En bra IPA, ganska stiltypisk västkust-IPA.

500ml Bottle - Amber with a small head. Peach, apricot, sultanas and tea in the aroma. Nicely balanced taste with punchy hops, biscuity malt and a fruity sweetness standing out. A very tasty brew with great balance.

Bottle from Vinmonopolet Tromsø - Sentrum. Light amber with a white head. Fairly relaxed with hops, citrus, some yeast and malt. Also notes of spices. A descent one.

Medium, dense, light-yellowish head over clear-copper beer, lazily carbonated. Catty, Valerian-like hops prominent in the nose (Belgisk??), dusty citrus, grapefruit,,.. (Belgisk??) More, quite resiny hops, citruspeel, grapefruit, finish being wry-bitter, even metallic (Belgisk??). Bitter dried apricots. Quite slick, feels rather well-bodied. I get it, now. Belgisk must be Bokmal for American. Good beer, though.

Clear orange beer, small irregular white head, little stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: bit cheesy, grassy hops, very fruity, pineapple, bit piny. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: citrus, pretty bitter, grassy, sweet touch, some almonds. Aftertaste: bitter, grassy, citrus, bit malty, sweet notes. Very enjoyable beer!

Bouteille 50cl, batch#837, BB 20/06/2016. Orangée, col fin blanc modéré. Arôme est houblonné US, point de levure belge, avec un rendu houblonné rappelant un peu des notes herbacées et un rétro-nasal penchant sur les grains. Palais est houblonné aux saveurs agrumes, pointe herbacée avec une amertume restant assez agréable en fin de bouche. Apport houblonné laissant pensé à du pin avec un petit résiduel adouci. Fini sur un léger grains, malt pâle. Le caractère tropical des houblons tend à ressortir aussi, je note peu le profil dry-hopped de la bière.
