Bottle. Pours dark orange with a creamy white head. Nice aroma of red tropical fruits (red orange, red grape) and caramel malts. Quite bitter grapefruity taste with a dark malty background. Small metallic off tastes. Smooth mouthfeel.

Keg at Ölstugan 1892 Tullen Andra Långgatan, Göteborg, 23/03/14. Hazed orange amber with a good sized light beige head that retains well. Nose is juicy hops, light pine, orange pith, apricot jam, straw, red grapefruit. Taste comprises light caramel, touch of mango, big orange pith, nice mineral bite, straw, hint of vanilla, candied orange peel. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close laced with hop bitterness. Decent IPA.

Bottle from Systembolaget, e-order in March 2014. A bit hazy amber with a medium head. Aroma and taste of hops, grapefruit, pineapple, malt and some hay. Fresh and easy to drink. Not that bitter. A descent one.

33 cl bottle, Batch no 05, BB 20.MAR.2015. Sampled on March 28, 2014.Hazy copper oxide to light brown color, big lasting fluffy nice looking creamy off-white to dirt yellow or teal head. Light hoppy, fresh, sweet, malty, some faint caramel, citrus zest, a bit grainy, fruit estery scent. Hoppy, bitter, citrus, fresh, sweet, malty, resin, some alcohol taste. Resin, bitter, citrus zest aftertaste. Prolonged lasting bitterenss. Soft, smooth, though still a bit fizzy CO2 mouthfeel. Medium high sort of citrus to bitter grapefruit bitterness that lingers. Borders on too bitter for me, though still manage to balance, malt body, hop bitterness, semi high alcohol and the fresh hoppy nose and taste well. I might not drink three bottles in a row, but I’ll finish this one bottle happily.
