Ever so slightly hazy copper coloured body with some bright amber and orange highlights and a nice crisp tint along with a thick, three centimetre tall microfoamed tan head. Aroma of yeast, white peppercorn, coriander seed, light curacao, a touch of corn, alcohol and some very minor notes of both sour elements and some oak. Medium-bodied; Deep, super pungent flavour with quite a bit of bitterness, coupled with a large peppercorn flavour that hits strongest, followed by a light sweetness of full oranges and curacao, along with a deep earthy and almost too pungent alcohol note on the end. Aftertaste is quite complex with the malt and orange-based sugars the strongest, but the yeast complexities are there, along with some peppercorn and light spice notes. Overall, a nice and super rich beer with a lot of complexity that works relatively well, but not perfectly. I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Washington, DC (Logan Circle, P Street) on 07-September-2014 for US$15,99 sampled at home in Washington after running a half marathon on 09-November-2014.
