Mar 3, 2008 weak palate, though wanting to be sharp and chewy here or there; pine, fruit tea aftertaste--quite the descent beer, and nothing great.

Feb 28, 2008 Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Pours out in a hazy amber colour with a small white head. Surprisingly mild and subtle aroma of grass, pepper, biscuit, herbs, butter and alcohol. Sharp resiny and sweet full flavour of oranges, lychee, rose hip and brown sugar. Bitter finish of lychee with plenty of sugar and canned oranges in the aftertaste. Weird DIPA.

Feb 27, 2008 Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Clear pale amber, small head. Aroma of caramel and paper with a dash of black cherries. Sweet with clean, rounded mouthfeel. There’s caramel and crystalized sugar as well as some unusual rosehip. Sugary finish with growing inky bitterness. Very strange DIPA. Almost no aroma hops up front, it’s too sweet, and the malt structure is sub-par as well.

Feb 25, 2008 ~ Pours a dirty brown colour. Little to no head.
~ Has a light hop scent. Somewhat sweet. Not as hoppy as I expect from an IPA. Good smell though.
~Strong hop flavor with a little bit of sweetness.
~This beer doesn’t really do much for me. Could be because I had a few dark beers before this one. Could have effected my taste.

Feb 23, 2008 Pours a transparent copper bronze with a wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet pale biscuity malt and some piny grapefruity notes. Body starts with decent fullness and sweet caramel malty notes along with some light fruity esters. Decently balanced and pretty drinkable, but not quite as fresh a hoppy character as I like in an imperial IPA.
