RBHD-symptombehandling i friluft: helt uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Saftig og velgjørende på min sykkeltur rundt Store Stokkavatnet. Fin bitterhet i avslutningen. Sol, sommer, sykkel og godt øl gjør tilværelsen både til en lek og en dans på roser.

0.355l can. Slightly opaque golden body with a white head. Aroma and taste of grapefruit, sugar syrup, pears, grape seed, resiny notes and some orange zest. A slight boozy character is there too. Nice fruity DIPA. Maybe a bit more bitterness could be beneficial for it but it's still very nice.

On tap at Cigar City, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma is loaded with big mezcal barrels, big roast, some vanillin, and light sugars. Flavour exquisitely showcases the mezcal barrels, with deep robust roasted malt providing a foundation, a remarkably mezcal expression, and some dark sugars. Exquisite malts and impeccable barrel character. Damn.

On nitro tap at Cigar City, pours a deep dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma has some spicy rye, earthy bready malt, and a touch of whiskey. Flavour is surprisingly mild, with subtle earthy rye, toasted malt, and some oaky whiskey barrels. Very soft palate; basically the beer just provides a vessel for the nice barrel character. Not sure nitrogenation is the optimal way to serve this, but this is definitely great.

On tap at Cigar City, pours a dirty dark brown / black with almost no head—doesn’t look the best. Nose is full of caramel and butterscotch, with base Huna way in the background. Flavour is very caramely, quite syrupy, which dominates this, but then the chilis do show an appearance. This is just too sweet and syrupy for me. I guess they did it well for what it is, but doesn’t work for me.

On tap at Cigar City, pours jet black with a small brown bead. Aroma is full of rich hazelnut, cocoa, chili peppers, and deep roasted malt. Flavour is wonderfully rich and yet not brutal, with intense hazelnut, huge dark sugars, roast, just enough chili, and big dark chocolate. Nice incorporation of the hazelnut without drowning out base Huna. Excellent.

On tap at Cigar City, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has plenty of toasted malt, deep dry earthy malt, and a hint of smoke. Flavour is rich, with deep roasted malt, nice earthiness, and gentle smoke. Great malt depth here, whereas the smoke is only a minor complement. Great robust porter.
