For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Backlog September 2011. Dark brown, close to black body under a fading beige head. Strong aroma of dark malt, soy, American hops and citric fruits. Taste is sweet malt, some roasted malt, citric fruits and bitter hops and quite alcoholic. Fine body with sweet, bitter and boozy aftertaste. Really nice start here, but the high alcohol make it feels a bit too muchfor me.

Can @ home. Clear golden body under a moderate sized off-white head. Aroma has malt, citric fruits, oranges and tangerine. Taste is smooth, soft malt, citric fruit, bitter orange zest and some bitter hops. Balanced body with a smooth and slightly sharp fruity bitter aftertaste. Nice and slightly unusually IPA in the classic direction.

Backlog September 2011. Dark brown, almost black body under a small, fading beige head. Aroma is nice but feels very sweet in a way with soy souse, bouillon and alcohol. Taste is sweet, dark malt, dry fruit, soy souse and warming alcohol. Fine body with long lasting aftertaste. Actually, a lot better than it might seem to this description.

Bottle @ home. Clear, deep amber body under a small, fast disappearing beige head. Fantastic aroma, extremely complex, dark malt, chocolate, dry fruit, red wine, wood, tobacco, port, vanilla, leather, lovely and warning alcohol. Taste lives up to aroma, sweet, smoothly roasted dark malt, chocolate, dry fruit, wood, red wine, leather, spices, warming alcohol, balanced bitterness. Perfectly balanced body, really balanced and complex, not too sweet, fine and warming alcohol. Dangerously easy drinkable and still a sipper to be enjoyed over a really long time. Amazing well made beer.

Backlog September 2011. Golden body under a huge, creamy white head. Aroma is spicy and a bit soapy. Taste is sweet malt, spicy with light fruit. Medium body and a bit short in aftertaste. Not a big hit by me.
