Bottle from Beers of Europe, King’s Lynn
Hazy amber color with generous head. The aroma has both a very nice hop (fruits and resins), and dust. Dry toffee flavor, followed by an extreme resiny hopping, leading to an equally powerful and long final.
This is one of the few American beer with quite some sediment, but controlled.
Straight bold IPA, but without the freshness that it should have.

Nice slightly hazy copper coloured body with a large, soapy off-white head that sticks up nicely, around three centimetres. Aroma of fresh herbal and slightly earthy hops with a touch of pine in the mix and a solid base of malt. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong, grassy, herbal and piney hops at the front end with a good malt balance and a slight bitter and metallic note near the end. Aftertaste is nice with a lot of hops, some pine, a bit of grapefruit all meshed around the light alcohol flavour and a stronger malt backbone. Overall, a rather nice IPA - showing a ton of hop characteristics, a lot of bitterness all with a solid backbone of malt. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Super Jr Market (BestDamnBeer Store) in San Diego, California on 06-May-2012 for US$5.99 sampled at home in Washington on 07-July-2012.

Markhaven Summer Fun 2012. Hazy copper with a small off-white head. Malty aroma, somewhat grainy or husky, a fruity touch and lots of alcohol. Sweet malty flavour with hot alcohol and a bit too much (and one dimensional) bitterness

Bottle in Johan’s apartment after the first day of the Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2012. Pours a lightly cloudy gold with a fine, white head. Caramel and toasty malts make up the bulk of the aroma, with some piney hops at the edges. Medium sweet flavor with plenty of woody, dirty and grassy bitters, along with some caramel sugars. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Mild warmth on the finish, with light yeast, toast, slightly abrasive grass and pine. A bit more caramel maltiness than might be required, but that doesn’t spoil the beer.
