Bottle courtesy of Nico Bot, the brewer who we met at Café Opporto, Massluis. Consumed at home Friday 23rd October 2015. This pours dark brown ermm...maybe on second thoughts perhaps black in colour with a beautiful large creamy textured head, looks great. There is some bitterness on the nose but this is outweighed by some fresh green juicy hops which are then softened considerably by the addition of vanilla and chilli the former I could pick out. This is not unlike the standard version. the gentle steady warmth from the chilli is subtle but a great addition there is bitterness throughout but again this isn’t as pronounced as the standard version. Some dark bitter chocolate, creamy vanilla and chilli all work well with a muted but still consistent citrussy burst. It’s a lovely BIPA. A7 A5 T7 P4 Ov15 3.8

Bottle courtesy of Nico Bot, the brewer who we met yesterday at Opporto, Massluis. Consumed at home Saturday 10th October 2015. Black in colour with a medium sized creamy textured sticky light beige head. Roasted bitter nose with some fresh green juicy hops and also a little wood ash. Lengthy bitterness throughout, some dark bitter chocolate, some ash, this is a winner for laying off the sweetness, really juicy fresh hops which provide a good citrussy burst. Lovely BIPA.

Bottle very kindly passed onto me by the brewer who we bumped into in Café Bar Oporto, Massluis. We consumed this in our Captains Suite, Central Stena Britannica, Friday 9th October 2015. Hazy mid amber with a large frothy sticky white head. Soft in the mouth with the spices and hops jostling for position but also good malty backbone, some warmth from from the abv. Some peppery hop, slight herbal notes. Tasty IPA, really enjoyed this. A7 A3 T7 P4 Ov15 3.6
