Bottle from ABC Beers, Den Haag. Poured a hazy medium amber with a frothy off white head. The aroma is big nettle resin hop. The flavour is medium bitter with an alcoholic hoppy bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not so bad and I don’t dislike it, but I don’t think the alcohol brings much to the party. I’ve had several regular IPA’s recently with much more flavour and a lower ABV.

Tap @ Burg Bierfestival 2014, small sample. Dark brown color, medium head. Aroma of hops, grapefruit, citrus, bit pine, but also quite some coffee, mocha and slight roast. Medium bitter in taste, caramelly sweet. Very easy to drink. Quite sweeter than usual black IPAs.

Nice reddish amber with creamy off-white head. Looks really nice. Taste is sweet at first, with grapefruit, honey, caramel, light biscuits and Dutch "ontbijtkoek". Medium fruity with some apricot, tropical fruits and orange mamelade. Some hint of pine resin and light vegetal notes. Medium bodied. Nicely balanced stuff, not too bitter or extremely hoppy as I would expect from the style, name and label, but I quite enjoyed it nonetheless.

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Dutchdrebus and Joes. Slightly unclear dark orange color, medium sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, hops, bitter, pretty bitter. I would have liked more resin and pine, so this is imo ’just’ a very bitter IPA, not a DIPA imo. Decent though.

Quite a bitter beer, with a dry tardy mouthfeel and aftertaste. Could use a bit more creamy malt in the body, but overall a nice beer.
