500 ml. bottle @ home. Obtained in a trade with tlahav. Thanks! BBF 03.16.2016. Hazy, fluffy & creamy off-white head. Very solid & lovely head. Nose is big very raw & medicinal grapefruit hops, medicinal mango & exotic fruits, very raw, floral & bitter, quite phenolic. Taste is hugely medicinal, huge bitter hospital, extremely bitter pine resin, very bitter plastic, very bitter floral mango, strongly phenolic,… Bitterness lingers and turns to very bitter plaster, big hospital & medicine, crystal malts, very bitter floral,… Hugely raw, faintly grainy,… Pure extreme bitterness, no balance & the bitterness is so medicinal & hospital like,… Plaster & hospital bitterness really lingers in your mouth,… Far too brutal for sadomasochistic hopheads who are all about bitterness and nothing else. Not my cup of tea to be honest.

Taste comprises melon, orange pith, straw, melon, light pine, tangerine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with hop bitterness. Decent IPA.
