Draught @ 3 Små Rum. Pours Amber with a small brownish beige head that doesn’t leave much trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is slightly malty with caramel, butterscotch, moist grass, moist soil, grapefruit rinds and lemon zest. Taste is slightly sweet, bitter, tiny malty and tiny fruity with dark bread, caramel, butterscotch, grapefruit juice, moist grass, dried pine needles, moist soil, black tea, orange zest and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is soft, round, tiny astringent and medium bodied. Finish is slightly sweet and slightly bitter with dark bread, toffee, grapefruit juice, moist grass, pine needles, moist soil, black tea, orange zest and lemon zest. Pretty much everything I don’t want in an IPA. Dark bready caramel malt profile. Un-aromatic bitter-centered earthy hops... Butter and grapefruit rinds... Earthy minerals... I don’t care you’re calling it Winter-IPA. That’s no excuse to do things like this. Vega still has a long way to go, or possibly I have to understand their beers aren’t for me.

Draught @ BAJT. Pours tiny hazy red with a frothy and rocky offwhite head that leaves some thick trace on the glass. Smell is tiny malty and slightly fruity with caramel, grapefruit juice, moist grass, pine needles, moist soil, dried pineapple, lemon zest and very subtle hints of rancid butter. Taste is tiny sweet, tiny bitter and slightly fruity with biscuits, grapefruit juice, pineapple juice, moist grass, pine needles, lemon zest and hints of caramel. Mouthfeel is soft, round, tiny watery and light bodied. Finish is tiny bitter and slightly fruity with caramel, grapefruit juice, pineapple juice, moist grass, pine needles and lemon zest. Feels very much like an amber ale and doesn’t have what I like in an APA. If I’d been in the mode for an amber ale this beer has some nice qualities...
