Bottled. A hazy deep red beer with a tan head. The aroma has notes of malt and fruits. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruits, leading to a bitter finish. It has a nice body. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottled, thanks TimE! Lightly hazy golden. Lovely aroma of grapefruit and hay. Ligh tbodied with crisp mouthfeel. Superb fresh hop aroma, but the body is not really up to it. Very quenching. Realy good stuff!

Light golden color, over very thick pure white head. Huge soft hoppy nose. Fruity, earthy mouth that is alive with hops, yet enough malts to provide a decent backbone. A touch of honey sweetness in there too. Finishes very dry, with limited bitterness. Great depth, highly drinkable and very enjoyable. Loved it.

50 cl Bottle brought from N-Z by a collegue, thanks Gijs! Deep dark brown to black colour, creamy beige head. Lovely sweet aroma with hints of coffee, chocolate and liquorice. Reminded me a lot of Great Divide Yeti. Flavour is sweet at first, chocolate, liquorice, going towards a hoppy and lingering coffee bitter finish. A bit thin mouthfeel, but very good overall. Would have been excellent with a thicker mouthfeel IMO.

50cl Bottle brought from N-Z by a collegue, thanks Gijs. Deep dark red to brown colour, light beige head. Sweet aroma of caramel, brown sugar, some dark fruits and lots of malts. Flavour is malty sweet and fruity at first, caramel, with some dark chocolate notes, finish is long lingering bitterness, flows out really nice from sweet to bitter. Great thick mouthfeel, almost syrupy. Fullbodied. Good stuff.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a warm dark brown with a tint of red and a creamy light brown head that leaves quite some lacework. Aroma of fruit and burned malts. Quite full-bodied with sweetish roasted malts, overripe fruit, a little ashes and a dry and hoppy finish. Nice one. 190408
