Amber colour, small steady white head and lace. Aroma has pine and resin, slightly bready. Medium-bodied. Flavour is resiny and piney - description says bergamot, I can understand why, that kind of tea citrus too. Ok old school IPA.

Tap at Beer Hunters. It's years when I last time had a beer from Saigon. Toasted, coffeish and ashy aroma. Medium-bodied. Coffeish, chocolaty, ashy flavour. Some licorice hints too. A bit sweet, not much on hop side. Okish.

33cl bottle (11%) from Alko, Helsinki. Pours close to black with a modest, beige head. Roasty and slightly spicy aroma with wooden notes, dark chocolate, dried fruits and hints of coffee. Medium sweet with medium to high flavour intensity and quite complex too. Smooth and balanced, but with a nice sting. Very enjoyable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Eloquent Phantom on 29 Jul 2020 at 20:41 - Score: 9

Bottle my brother brought back from the brewery. Pours a clear gold with basically no head. Aroma is quite dank and malty. Very classic west coast double IPA. Big body. Flavour is very sweet and malty, medium bitterness. Fruity with grapefruit, orange, some pineapple. some pine. Really nice, a good west coast IPA. Just a bit sweet and a little boozy.

33cl bottle from Alko, Helsinki. Pours hazy pale straw coloured with a white head. Plenty of fresh, ripe tropical fruits, notes of citrus and hints of malt. Refresh tropical nectar with balanced acidity and a light bitterness. Refreshing and enjoyable! --- Beer merged from original tick of Some Sorcerer New England IPA on 16 Jul 2020 at 20:11 - Score: 8
