UPDATED: JUL 1, 2023 Can from HoTM. It pours clear copper - amber with a fluffy white head. The aroma is oily, sappy, resinous, wood, floral, orange marmalade, mango, splash of Irn Bru and caramel. The taste is dry, pleasing bitterness, sappy, oily, resinous, dry pine, touch of toffee/caramel, peppery spice, floral, touch of fragrant black tea, dull marmalade and a twist of citrus. Finish dry/ bitter and sappy with a boozey slap. Totally old school, but I enjoy that. Good buzz.

UPDATED: JUN 5, 2020 Smell-weak to medium strength, hops, malt, some fruits, a bit acidic too, bit tingling even. Foam- thin, some malt, some hops, some fruits, and weak sweetness. Head is medium to small, white color. It seems to stick to sides. Appearance- simple can. Clear orange-amber color, no carbonation at sides some in middle. From- snifter Taste - fruits, malt, some hops, some caramel, bit more hops and bitterness, but all very well muffled together. The aftertaste is weak hops and malt, faint citrus but all is very calm and neutral.

UPDATED: MAR 23, 2020 a pretty standard ipa. this has some pine and a fairly bitter finish. darkish color.

UPDATED: FEB 24, 2020 Tap@BrewDog, Tampere, Finland. Medium, averagely balanced nuances of slightly bitter fruits like mango and anis. A hint of spices and light malts. Averagely hopped. Medium taste spectrum and medium aftertaste with slightly hoppy, hint of anis and fresh fruits. Overall, bit distinctive probably due to anis like hop profile. Quite simple though. 7 3 4 3 9
