Originally brewed in 2011, re-released in 2020.

Mörkt bärnstensfärgad ale med kraftiga citrusaromer från användandet av amerikanska humlesorter och en speciell humlingsteknik kallad Hop-Bursting där man tillsätter kontinuerligt ökande mängd humle för att ge en kraftig humlearom. Humlesorterna är Amarillo, Brewers Gold, Cascade, Chinook, Columbus, Northern Brewer, Saaz och Simcoe. Den kraftiga humleprofilen balanseras av en rund och mjuk maltighet som kommer sig av användandet av mycket Munchenermalt. Detta kompletteras av Pilsner-, Crystal, och Pale Chocolate malt.

Colour is dark brown. Head is large and thick. Aroma is fruit, hops, toffee and shampoo. Flavour starts with some malt, chocolate and orange peels but after that it’s all about intense, powerful hops. The bitterness seems to stay forever.

7.2/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 8
Big yellowish brown head. Dark red barely translucent body with carbonation. Strong hop aroma of tropical fruit and citrus with dusty malty notes. Sweet-bitter roasty dusty malt taste combines well fruity citric hops and buttery alcoholic burnt notes. Full-bodied. Some alcohol heat in mouthfeel, as well as astringency. Perhaps a bit too astringent. Dry fruity roasty aftertaste with alcohol and rye notes. Intensely hopped, but nicely balanced with malts. The tropical fruit hop taste dominates the whole experience. Excellent and quite unusual. (0.5l bottle, Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)
