Bottle bought @ The Mikkeller webshop. No bottled on date I can find. Pours hazy deep orange with a creamy offwhite head that slowly dissipates while leaving lots of sticky lacing and trace on the glass. smell is slightly malty and fruity with biscuits, caramel, grapefruit juice, moist grass, pine needles, yellow winegums, grapefruit pith and lemon zest. Taste is sweet, slightly malty and tiny fruity with biscuits, caramel, grapefruit pith, moist grass, pine needles, cardboard and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is round, tiny boozy and medium to full bodied. Finish is sweet, bitter and tiny fruity with biscuits, caramel, grapefruit pith, moist grass, pine needles, cardboard, orange peal and lemon zest. Another old outrageously priced IPA from the Mikkeller webshop.

Bottle bought @ The Mikkeller webshop. No bottled on date I can find. Pours hazy brownish red with a frothy offwhite head that slowly dissipates while leaving some lacing and trace on the glass. Smell is malty and tiny fruity with biscuits, caramel, pineapple juice, grapefruit juice, moist grass, pine needles, lemon zest, cardboard and hints of alcohol. Taste is slightly sweet, bitter, slightly fruity and slightly vegetal with biscuits, caramel, toffee, grapefruit juice, pineapple juice, celery, moist grass, pine needles, alcohol, cardboard and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is slightly sticky sweet, slightly astringent, slightly boozy and medium to full bodied. Finish is sweet, bitter, tiny fruity and slightly vegetal with biscuits, caramel, sweet dark bread, grapefruit juice, unripe pineapple, cardboard, moist grass, celery, alcohol and lemon zest. Old, oxidized and incredibly expensive. Shame on the Mikkeller shop for selling old stale beer for such a price.

Bottle at Craig’s. Pours jet black with a thin tan head. Aromas of coffee, liquorice and chocolate. Taste is dominated by the coffee,light sweet dark chocolate coming in at the end. Slightly thinner than the base beer, but still very nice.

Bottle at Craig’s. Pours jet black with a thin tan head. Aromas of dark chocolate, smoke, near-charcoal. Taste brings a vanilla sweetness, more chocolate. Roasted bitter finish. Lovely.

On tap at Mikkeller bar, Copenhagen. Hazy dark amber pour with a white head. Apricot, tangerine and vanilla aroma. Flavours of pepper, some sweet spice, lots of fruit in there too. Nice.

Bottle from Mikkeller Webshop. Dark amber, moderate hazy body, with a medium, creamy, pretty stable, white head, that leaves a lot of lacing. Aroma of grapefruit, peach, orange, pine, passion fruit, candy. Taste with about the same aromas, also a subtle malt backbone, with biscuit and grass. Mouthfeel is medium, oily, with a moderate carbonation and it finishes bitter, slightly dry, with lemon zest, pine and grass. Nice one! Overall nothing outstanding, but really solid, well balanced and with crisp citric and tropical fruit notes.
