Bottle, 7.5%. Fruity aroma, hint of berries, rough caramel hoppiness. Clear red brown colour. Big stable tan head. Quite hoppy flavour, bitter and sweet, citric and caramelly. Considering the ABV, this could have been better.

50 cl bottle, shared with Bjørnar and Roger. Brown color, lovely off-white/beige head. Aroma is fruity and sweet with hops. Flavor is fruit, hops and malt in very fine combination. Not very bitter fnish. I really like this one.

Deep amber colour with an off white head. Light caramel sweet aroma with hoppy grassy notes. Caramel sweet flavor with fruity and hoppy bitter notes.

Bottle at Haket, Gothenburg. A copper to golden beer with some clouds and a nice beige head. Citrus, mostly lemon, and sugary malts in the aroma. Some caramel in the background. Pineapple too. Sweet and malty flavor with some strawberry-sour and lemony notes. And pineapple. Full-bodied, almost astringent. Long piney, citrusy finish. A quite nice beer, but not my favorite from Dugge.

Bottle@home Apperance: Hazy orange with a nice creamy foam that sticks to the glass. Aroma: Fruit, Pine, Citric notes (grapefruit) Flavor: Pine, Citric notes (orange and lemon), Caramel, Herbs. Palate: Liquid is quite thin and this beer feels balanced. Medium carbonation. Oh man, this has got to be one of the most balanced ipa’s i’ve ever tried. Very quaffable at 7.5% and something i could see myself drinking quite a few of during a night out. Brilliant!
