Hazy yellow, huge light yellow head. pine and grapefruit in the aroma, but also sweet cardboardy ish notes you normally find in a hazy ipa. quite strong aroma . the pine and grapefruit is fruity and high-quality ish.
flavor is quite pine and grapefruity bitter, and not like a neipa, there is also a - i could call it - hop pellet tasteless bitterness that adds to the bitterness but is not very aromatic. in total the beer is quite bitter and reminds me of the less balanced ones of the popular major us label very bitter ipa's.
anarkist beers are often somewhat tempered and mainstream-y, but this one is not. it's quite intense.

can bought in hersonisos, crete
mild aroma, slightly sort of fruity or boozy or energy-drinky note, the aroma is sort of in between an energy drink and a radler.
flavor is dusty, citrus , sweet malts, a skunky alc. like bitterness, the rum can be sensed but is not overly in the flavor - probably fortunately - the base beer seems a bit weak reg. trying to balance the added flavors. too alc. bitter and skunky to be really a thirst quencher, and not really a big treat in and of itself. could be worse though.

pours very dark brown, settles nearly black, with a light brown small head that leaves a film behind.
Aroma is heavy on roasted malts, then quite some wood and also some vanilla. aroma is like a very old wooden house out in the sun for the entire summer, soaked in imp. stout. well blended and rounded. vanilla clearly noticeable. but not as a sharp artificial thing that was added.
flavor is roasted malts, a lot of flavors from wood, the good stuff, salt, charred wood, some funky complexity from overexposure to wood, vanilla practically drowned in the heavy flavors of wood and roasted malts. This flavor is VERY barrel aged in the flavor. they took it off just before it went nuts. very complex, lots to explore.

roasted malts, faint bitter caramel in the aroma. normally i don't fancy bitter caramel, but this one suits the beer well, and is a great composition. boozy alc. note..
flavor is roasted malty, coconut, chocolate, licorice combo - like if it was bourbon barrel aged. quite smooth texture. bit sweet but quite delicious.
