Draught @ Borefts 2019 Aroma has tropical fruits, fruit juice and grapefruit. Flavour has tropical fruits, woody tones, minerals, grapefruits and mild herbal tones. Aftertaste has some hop burn. Quite what it promises to be - a really hoppy IPA.

Bottle at home shared with Caesar to finish the Germany trip with some hops which we have dearly missed. Hazy orange color, medium sized white head. Smell and taste malts, resinous hops, heavy hop bitter, lingering bitter. Medium body and carbonation. Very nice. 8-3-8-3-15.

Amber colour, small off-white head and lace. Rustic bready, resiny aroma. Medium-bodied. Pine, resin and caramalt in the flavour. Nice bitterness in the finish. Decent old school IPA. When you have 108 IBUs, the six months of age doesn't mean much.

Sampled on draft this beer poured an orange color with a large foamy white head that left great lacing. The aroma was sweet with tropical fruit, fruit cocktail and grape. The flavor was bitter with fruity hops, a bit of tropical fruit and grapefruit. Long finish that turns a bit dry. Medium body.

355ml bottle. Clear, orangey, dark golden to amber colour with average to huge, thick, creamy-fluffy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Piney and slightly citrusy, hoppy aroma, notes of resin, coniferes, hints of orange, mandarine, orange zest. Taste is dry, piney hoppy and sweet, caramel malty, notes of resin, hints of tangerine, orange, orange zest, whiffs of lemon; slightly oily texture, smooth and soft palate. Well crafted, classic West Coast IPA.
