(Bottle, Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 30 Sep 2017) Reddish amber colour with foamy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with notes of black-currant, orange peel, some resin and caramel. Malty, hoppy taste with citrus, orange peel, dried apricots, black-currant, caramel and a generous citric bitterness in the finish. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well made IIPA, with a fresh hop character. Nice one.

Bottle @ home. Nice medium to dark red color, full sized long lasting white to off-white head that lasts for quite a while. Aroma is malts, hops. Not too much more. Taste malts, hops, moderately bitter. Pretty disappointing actually. Why and how is this an Imperial IPA? Sweetish and sweetish hops. Meh, drinkable but not an Imperial IPA at all imo.

(On tap) Clear mahogany brown with small white head. Sweet toffee and fruit, dates, aroma. Medium body, light carbonation. Toffee sweetness provides a good underpinning. There's a raisins / dates fruitiness at the start, and a bitterness in the finish that is perhaps a little brutal but nicely offsets the sweetness. A good beer.
