Bottle from Beers Of Europe. Hazy golden body with an off-white head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of boiled sweets and blood orange. Flavour of orange pith and lime chutney. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Rich and hoppy. I do like an Anchor IPA - they’re always bold and bitter.

Pours amber, relatively transparent.
Malt sweetness in the aroma
Taste of dark malts, pine, and alcohol. The alcohol part is surprising as it's only 6.9% but I guess it pushes through as it's not a mega big beer otherwise. A very unusual beer but would fit perfectly on xmas eve.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Pours a clear, dark brown with a vague tint of orange. The head is rich, creamy and lacing - cappuchino-style - with excellent retention. Fine, clean and distinct coffee notes penetrates the dense head. Medium body, sweet roast and bitter, dark chocolate again with good and clean coffee. A finishing bitterness mostly from coffee and roasted malt. Delicious. 300120

Pours dark , light absorbing brown. Mediuml sized, relatively stable, tanned head. Scent is mild, showing a very mild herbal, spiced aroma, as well as some dark bread . Taste is sharp, high carbonation ( think Belgian Style ) , mild traces of oxidation, not ruining the beer just yet ( it's best by date is 09-2019 so a few months over time, yet its not bad at all ). Medium to medium thin body ( again, this really drinks like a belgian style ) . Mild amount of herbal spices. Relatively easy drinker, not to much taste. Not as heavy in alcohol as the BE winterbeers, which I do enjoy a bit more in this style. Mild bitterness, not as sweet as anticipated. Relatively clean fermentation profile as well.
