*Rating overgezet 2016* Fles thuis geprobeerd. Het is een troebel oranje achtig bier met een medium witte schuimkraag. Het aroma is moutig en hoppig. De smaak is citrusachtig en hoppig met een lekker bittere afdronk.

Zeer beperkt aroma, smaken zijn vrij glad, er zacht, fijngemalen krijtjes, nou aan dit blikje zijn de tropische vruchten voorbij gegaan... moah

(Bottle) Dark amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with notes of dried apricots, orange peel, caramel, resin, pink grapefruit, toffee, dark rye bread and a touch of maple syrup. Malty, hoppy taste with dried apricots, orange peel, resin, toffee, caramel, rye bread and a generous citric, resiny bitterness in a vinous finish. More than medium body, quite sweet. Solid malt backbone and a generous hop presence. Solid and well made American style barley wine. Very nice.
