Hazy dark copper with a big (yeah, my bottle is overcarbonated too) off-white head. You can pick up some caramel malt, but it’s dominated by burned plastic sulphur aroma. Dry roast malt flavour with a bitter finish.

(Bottle 50 cl) Slightly hazy orangey brown with a beige head. Lightly burned aroma. Medium body with notes of burned plastic and burned malt. A rather bitter finish, but the burned plastic tang reappears. Overly carbonated. 091206

Dark brown color; huge thick head. Some aroma of malt and roasted malt. Good body strength; the flavor is based on caramel and roasted malt; round enough; strong final, with a lot of caramel and roasted malt. Too much alcohol and too much bitterness from the roasted malt.

Bottle 0,5l. Batch 46. Dark red/brown coloured - almost black. A large brownish head clinging to the bottle. Unclear. Peppery aroma. The high carbonation kills most of the flavour, but some malt, spice and roastedness shines through. Dry bitter finish. KI=5

500ml bottle (batch 44, bb. Sept.08). Dense, brownish head over a mahogany coloured body. Pleasant aroma of roasted malt. Marked taste of aniseed with hints of dark fruits and burnt malt. Rounded bitter finish. Fits the season well, but the anise is bit too dominant (25.11.2006).

Bottled. Have compared some of the early batches with the later one and found a big improvement. The best of them will count for this rating. Golden, medium dark, hazy body with a rather small head. Delicious aroma of hops and citrus with hint of hay. Quite a mild IPA, refreshing, fruity and easy drinkable. Great IPA for those not to keen on the hops.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, small white head. Aroma is hops and yeast. Flavour is hoppy all the way through. Also some hints of yeast and grass. Smooth to drink and a very pleasant IPA.
