(Bottle, Café de la Gare, Den Haag, 21 Feb 2013) Reddish amber colour with frothy, beige head. Fruity nose with orange, caramel, citrus peel. Fruity, malty taste with notes of citrus, caramel, a touch of grapefruit and a generous piney bitterness in a fairly dry finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Refreshing and tasty IPA. Nice one.

33cl bottle @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. Pitch black color, medium sized brown head. Smell malts, roasty, coffee. Taste has malts, roastyness, coffee, a bit chocolate. Carbonation is a bit fizzy which takes away a bit of the taste. Pity because it’s a very nice beer. So a bit too carbonated but a solid body. Quite nice, too much carbonation imo.

Bottle from ABC Beers. Bit of a gush when opened but still plenty left. Pours hazy brown with a massive beige head, very lively. Aroma actually reminds me of Christmas tree, very much spruce and resinous, really get the pine needles, with caramel, spice and herbs and definitely the orange coming through. Flavour continues in the same way with a moderate sweetness and light bitterness. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A really interesting take on a Christmas beer.

330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy amber colour with average to huge, fairly lasting, off-white head. Resinous hoppy aroma, pine, hints of sweat and cheese. Taste is initially minimally to moderately sweet caramel malty with hints of resin, minimally biting bitter hoppy overtones, later minimally herbal, dry, minimally grassy hoppy with hints of tannic acid. Not yet a full-blown IPA, but definitely on the right way
