Sample at SBWF 2013. Black with a tan head. This was a suprisingly "light" one with roasted malt, some notes of "candy", nuts, light hops and alcohol. Not bad in anyways but not as expected.

On tap at the brewery. Pours hazy orange with a medium off-white head with decent retention. Aroma and flavor are strong in toasted coconut. Body’s a little thin, carbonation fairly soft. Great tasting beer.

Crisp, very nice copper and bronze coloured body with a slight haze and a perfect 3 centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of malt, alcohol, oranges, lemons and a lot of bright piney and citrus hops - very nice smell. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong hoppy flavour with pine and citrus (especially) dominating the flavour, some good malt back notes, a little earthiness and a lot of bitterness from pine and resin. Aftertaste has a great balance of the malt and hops with more of a dominance on the hops - but in a very good way. Overall, a great Imperial IPA, perfectly balanced and showing a ton of flavour, but not too much - great to sample and my only flaw is the large format bottle, but that’s standard here on the West Coast. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased a few minutes ago from Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon on 27-September-2013 for US$8.23 sampled in my hotel room here in Portland on 27-September-2013.

Bomber bought @ Systembolaget. Pours very hazy reddish golden with a small creamy offwhite head that leaves some sticky lacing on the glass while dissipating. Smell is tiny sweet with bread, biscuits, pine needles, resinous wood, overripe tropical fruits, silage, grapefruit juice, lemon zest, caramel and cedar. Taste is slightly sweet, bitter, malty and fruity with biscuits, caramel, sweet bread, cedar, grapefruit juice, pine needles, grapefruit rinds, moist grass, lemon zest and hints of overripe tropical fruits. Mouthfeel is soft, round, tiny astringent and medium bodied. Finish is bitter with biscuits, caramel, pine needles, grapefruit juice, moist grass, cedar and lemon zest. Should have opened this much sooner. Would have been much better fresh.

On tap at the Green Dragon. Pours a clear dark copper color with a large white head. A big malty nose with light floral notes. The flavor is simple easy toasted malt, light berries, some clean sweet grains in the finish. A light hop bite in the finish. Good.
