copper, fiery orange. Foam tinted towards the colour of the body.

bottle. i liked it which is why i’m rating it. it seemed to have more of a malt balance. smelled alright and tasted good. i didn’t pour it into a glass and i didn’t pay any attention to it, so i’ll rerate it another day.

Pours a medium gold with a large off white creamy head. Aroma is pungent pine-citrus and floral hop, with a caramel biscuit undertone. Very smooth drinking. Sharp bitter on the palate with a clean malt body. Very nice IPA I thought.

Bottle: Not so bitter as other I.P.A.’s but that doesn’t matter. Pale looking beer with some bitternish and hints of caramel.

Bottled at Bishops Arms, Järntorget, Göteborg, Sweden. Clear bronze with medium fluffy off-white head. Fruity and caramelly malts are accompanied by floral and herbal hops. Medium bodied and smooth. Very well balanced with a nice long bitterness. A bit weak for an IPA though.

(Bottle) Pours amber Fruity and light hoppy aroma with apricot, oranges and some light resiny and floral notes. Maybe some grass. Quite sweet with notes of malt, nuts and syrup. Bitter hoppy and fruity flavour with a sweet sting. Some citrus/grapefruit, flowers and light pine. A bit sweet in the flavour as well with some syrupy tones. Lingering citric aftertaste with some nutty tones. Medium full bitterness. Medium body.

Bottle. Deep golden brown with a white head. Aromas are toffee malts with lots of herbal, spicy notes. Grassy pine. Flavours are caramel malts with herbal toasty notes. Pretty peppery and dry with sweet pine. Good herbal stuff.

Copper-brown beer with white light head. Aroma is fruitful and very fresh. Taste is fruity and sweet there is also hops in the beginning. Aftertaste is very hoppines and long. This is very good beer for someone who likes lots of hops.
