6.4/10 Appearance 4 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Bottled. An unclear murky dark amber beer with a huge bubbly off-white head. The aroma has notes of over ripe fruits, malt, and some spicy hops. The flavor is sweet with notes strong notes of hops, spices, and over ripe fruits, leading to a dry and bitter finish.

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of bluebetty. Pours a cloudy amber with a lively, rough off-white head that dissipates. Sweet citrusy nose. Medium body, somewhat rough bubbly carbonation. Sweet fruits and perfumy almost gingery and citrusy hops. Solid, dry bitterness in the finish. Nice one. 241010

[6/10] Tap. Amber, with a small but dense cream head. Aroma: nectarine, pear, caramel under resin and grapefruit. Pretty inviting - it certainly doesn’t whack you with hops. Just creamy mouthfeel. Big caramel, mild tropical sweetness backed with initially modest but aromatic bitterness. Citrus and resin build and linger. Big, but not loud. Low-key for the style and very drinkable. [3.9] [10/10] Bottle, 9C. Clear amber with a creamy light beige head. Big but far from brash fruity and pine aroma has nectarine and kumquats. Taste has those and some solid biscuity malt. Not that much bitterness compared to the aromatic hops, but there’s enough. Pretty harmonious for this sort of thing.[12/15] First time I’ve seen this in bottles for a long time. A lovely blend hops on a fairly rich but complementary malty background. Dodges the usual issues I have with IIPAs by not being very strong. Fine beer.

Pours a lovely ruby/amber with a small off-white head that shows good persistence and lacing.Aroma is fruity as! Tangerine, pineapple, paw paw, grapefruit and passion fruit. Then there’s some spicy and resinous hops in the background, along with some sweet malts.Taste is some brief citrus fruit up front before a strong sweet malty backing and some alcohol show their presence. Green hoppy bitterness follows in a finish of reasonable duration.Smooth alcoholic heat creeps up on the palate. Lovely cream body.Murray’s continue to amaze me with their brews.

A rare beer from STLWill, carried on his back all the way from Australia. Big hop aroma. Sweet flavor with more bitter hops, that include pine, tea, and grapefruit. Opaque gold color, and a thick, rocky head. Better than average. Well balanced.

Straight forward, but solid IIPA with caramel malt providing an solid backbone and oranges and apples coming in for the hops. The body is fairly heavy and I think the ABV could be driven up even further without lossing much character. Moderately bitter finish. Nothing over the top, but very enjoyable.
