Bottle from MrBarleywine, thank you for the hookup and for always thinking of me! Just shy of brilliant deep gold color with a decent sized bubbly white head that dissipates quickly. Bready crackery malt with a hint of toast. Light earthy spicy floral hop to counter. Clean well made Festbier, but maybe a hint on the dry side on the finish.

Bottle at home from J and B Craft Drinks, Amsterdam, 12th November 23. This was part of a huge haul, last week. Pours a deep golden and off clear, large and firm head, aroma is very resinous, pine, citrus and aromatic, light burnt malts and sugars, taste is pine, resinous, with buttery malts interwoven, some assertive malt backbone and a good level of citrus and hop bitterness. It’s very classical and very well made and balanced, good DIPA

Bottle from TJ. Bottled 09/26/23. Pours a light hazy golden colour and a frothy uneven white head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma's of floral hops, citrus, some malts. Retronasal it's citrussy, light malty and somewhat resinous. Flavour is light moderate sweet and light bitter with a hint of fruity sourness. Medium bodied. Firm carbonation. Finishea slightly dry and increasingly bitter. Maybe not so spectacular these days but tasty and very well balanced.
