On tap in Malmö. Nice dark brown head of some density and a good ol’ jet black rounding out the glass. Smell is strong coffee and chocolate syrup. Flavour is big chocolate cake with icing, sweet coffee, fresh brownies. Dry finish. Very good, nicely made, handles its role well.

Draught at Marshall Wharf's 10th Anniversary, 10/17/17.
Lightly-to-minimally hazy, straw-blonde-golden with a small white head atop showing moderate retention.
Nose is peppery, grassy, quite mild and showing a light amount of elegant, honey-like base malt. It doesn't seem very given to any of the hops listed, though who knows how old it is (no oxidation present, at least). No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's lightly spicy, showing pepper, herbs and such with soft base malts adding light honey. Good attenuation and carbonation levels, with no alcohol, flaw or resinous hop. Again, this seems very lightly hopped and were it not a pretty unique name, I'd think this was the wrong beer. Still, it's clean, dry and malty and still contains ample bitterness. Drinkable and refreshing.

(On tap @ VilleValla Pub, Linköping, Mar 15/18) Pours an extremely murky and slightly brownish orange with no head. Notes of sweet and rather juicy orange, pit fruit, light tropical fruit cocktail, pine, flowers, citrus oil, some sweet clean malt, a bit estery, with low bitterness but a bit of slightly spicy hop in the back end augmented with more citrus peel and a little resin. Medium bodied, a bit slick, below average carbonation. A touch sweet and a hair rough too, but a pretty solid take on an NEIPA all told.

Draught (O'Connor's, Uppsala) - Very murky golden/light amber. Pine, grapefruit, orange and hop resins in the aroma. Tangy, hoppy, zesty and fruity taste with orange peel, grapefruit, pine and blood orange standing out. Some passion fruit and lychees can be detected in the finish.
