Bottled at Queens Head, Stockholm. Clear amber, creamy head. Rich aroma of pear, ripe mango, pine and grapefruit. Mid sweet with well sized soothing, super rounded caramellly body. Concentrated flavour of tangerine peels, grapefruit and caramel. Long bitter finish. Simply remarkable, what an awesome modern ale?

Dark golden with a white head - Very good hop aroma with flowers. tropical fruits and some hints of pine - A very good hop flavour in the body with fruits and some pine, and a good malt body to support the hop - a good dry hop finish that lasts for a long time - this was very good and it has a good hop profile

Bottle from Monument in Concord, CA. Pours clear copper with a frothy white head. Aroma of mildly roast malt with burnt rubber. Med body. Flavor is mildly roast malt with burnt rubber/citrus. Never thought those were similar, but live and learn. It’s finishing hoppy and quite, well , hoppy. If you are a hop addict, this should be good for you. So how is burnt rubber good? Heck if I know, but it’s working for me.

Bottle shared by AZ crew at the driveway tasting. Pours black with big coffee nose. Tastes mostly of coffee, but with some light cocounut, malt, oatmeal, earth, and vanilla. Not picking up figs or dark fruits at all. a touch thin for Imp Stout but tasty enough.
