Tap @Bruuveri, rated 1.11.2012. Dark nut brown-reddish color, good creamy beige head. Aroma is a bit tarry smokey with fruity hoppyness which is very typical to Bruuveri nowadays. Medium-bodied. Fruity, sticky hoppyness and bitterness mixed tar and licorice. This has a bit higher ABV than usual Bruuveri IPAs and it seems to work. Smoke-tar and hop combination works well.
