An orange beer with an orange head. The aroma is very hoppy and grassy, and also has notes of yeast. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of yeast and light notes of coriander. I is weird how hoppy the aroma is - both for the style and compared to the flavor.

12 oz bottle...solid copper color, no lasting foam...no lacing either...aroma is quite malty with floral notes....mmm first taste is creamy malt with a nice hop back to it...finish is a touch of grapefruit and a nice hoppy bite ...grapefruit is not overbearing...definitely like this one!

A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is very sweet and very hoppy, but also with some grassy notes. The flavor is very hoppy combined with light notes of caramel, leading to a dry grassy end.

Bottle Pours a hazy copper with an average sized off white head and nice sturdy lacing. Lots of citrusy lemony hops in the aroma. Some hints of apple cider as well. Flavor is quite bitter up front and then a remarkable rush of full deep malt flavor following. Lots of flavor from both sides and a quite strong lasting biotter bite. A nice strong in your face IPA. Curious what their "Imperial IPA would be like. Thanks to Kenb for this little gem.

Bottle. Orfange amber beer with an off-white head. Yeasty, orange aroma. Yeasty, estery flavor with some lemon/orange and spice. Earthy finish. Slight alcohol presence. Creamy mouthfeel. Eands with a bit of huskiness that otherwise takes away from a decent beer (just nothing special).

Draft. Rich amber beer with a thin off-white head. Fruity aroma of grapefruit/summer fruits. Fruity flavor with some resin and caramel backing. Thin bodied for an IIPA, but very drinkable -especially for 9%. Lingering fruity flavor, but not overly bitter.

Slightly hazy copper. Very fresh hop aroma - so fresh it defies analogy or interpretation. It just smells like hops. The flavour is moderately bitter, with toasty malts and woody hops that are far less pronounced than in the aroma. I definitely consider it a weakness if a beer has a serious disconnect between the aroma and the flavour, in particular when it comes to hoppiness. Dry-hopping the shit out of a beer that isn’t especially hoppy in the mouth as well just doesn’t impress me.
