Pours dark amber with a small lasting head.Nose shows lots of passion fruit and floral and piney resinous hops. Underneath is cookie dough, caramel and oats.Similarly hoppy flavours with loads of pine. Little supporting malt, just a hint of sweet clean malt and some oats (???). Sharp, full-on bitterness.Nice med-high carbonation.

Bottle. A clear, golden-orange beer with a white head. The aroma has a strang herbal touch, with sugary maltyness and fruits in the aroma. Sugary, fruity flavor with a metallic touch towards the end. Something herbal too. Medium body, pleasant carbonation. A decent one, nothing more. 110416
