Dec 15, 2006 Medium offwhite head; faintly hazy dark orange body with carbonation. Sweet spicy apricot aroma, quite light, with an unidentifiable off taste in the background. Taste is bittersweet fruit with a wooden pine needle finish. Body is thin (but OK). A really nice one. (0.33l bottle, thanks to Knut Albert.)

Dec 12, 2006 Dark orange colored, large yellow head. Slightly cloudy appearance. Rich aroma with flowers, hoppy bitterness, sweet caramel, some interesting bubblegum there also. Medium bodied. Flavor is also rich with good flowers, pine and strong hops, even mild licorice there. Slightly watery palate, aftertaste could be little longer. Still excellent APA!

Dec 10, 2006 Hand bottled, courtesy of Gnoff via oh6gdx. Dark nut brown color, big cloudy off-white head. Very fresh grassy hoppy aroma. Good balance of malts and hops with very nice aromatic hops dominating (Challenger?). Lots of pine needles and grass in the flavor. Tasty hoppy aftertaste, which unfortunately is not very long. We were comparing this to Stadin APA and consensus was that this is slightly better and tastier.

Dec 10, 2006 Bottled (Thanks gnoff!). Amber coloured, beige huge fluffy head, lacing. Aroma is flowery hops, caramel and fruits. Flavour is flowery, fruitish and caramellish. Very smooth and pleasant. One of the best APA’s I have had. When I think qúickly of it, I think only brunnsbe’s homebrew APA would beat this....
