330ml bottle from AshtonMcCobb - cheers Ash! Pours clear pale gold, thin white head. Big hop aromas, all grapefruit and resin. Taste is really resiny bitter too, slightly sweaty, in a good way. Oily texture, but thin body, and a bitter finish. Pleasantly surprised. If someone gave you this as a Californian Wheat Ale, you’d agree.

33cl bottle thanks to Pohjala brewer, Chris. Appearance - brown to opaque black with a lovely fluffy head. Nose - lemon and elderflower. Taste - a lovely lime note with a gentle toffee note in the background. 7 Palate - medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry finish. 4 Overall - not the expected spicy rye note. Good though. 14

Aftertaste had spruce tips, hops, burnt malts and bitterness. A tasty and good Black IPA. I usually dislike the style but the spruce sprouts here helped a lot.

0,33L bottle, BB 27.12.2014, batch 010. Shared by suurjuust, thanks!. Pours dark brown-black with brownish head. The head stays for a moment. Aroma is roast, sour, coffee, and some alcohol. Taste is sweet, sour and bitter, roast, coffee, dark chocolate, and lactose. Finish is long dark chocolate bitter with hints of smoke. Overall: nice brew. Have had some sh*tty bottles over the time, but the last one I had a couple of days ago was really great. Bumping overall by +2.
