Slightly hazy, deep golden colored pour with a long lasting creamy head. Aroma of pine, citrus and light floral hops. Flavor is nicely balanced, with sweet roasty malt that is overpowered by the big hops on the finish. A bit creamy on the palate. This is a very nice IPA.

On tap at the brewery during RBSG 08. Pours amber with a big, fluffy, white head. Big hoppy aroma, with spices, and a bit herbal. Taste is sharp and bitter, of hops and herbs. Nice lingering bitterness. Very tasty IPA.

Flaske. Super IPA, med en dejlig maltbase til at bakke op om en rimelig diskret humle. Duft af mango og eksotiske frugter. Smagen er også derhen af. Passede perfekt til de ruller min kone og jeg delte her på vores 3 års bryllupsdag. Dejlig øl.

Strong aroma of wooden hop resin. Pours a clear dark gold color with a thin white head. Good flavor of woody hop resin and pine needles, there’s strong bitterness that leaves a pineapple feeling in the mouth. The body is light to medium with a creamy texture and gentle carbonation.

Bronze colored beer with a wispy head of foam that lasts well. Very nice hop aroma that gives notions of spruce, pine, lemon, hop oil....It’s pure and quite nice. Flavor is super hoppy. Big on flavor hops, but light on bitterness, not in a bad way. Woody hoppiness, with well structured notes of lemon, grapefruit, spruce and pine. Really nice beer. Beautifully hoppy and impressive. Up there with some of the best SoCal IPA’s.
