Commercial Description:
Founders most complex, most innovative, most feared and yet most revered ale produced. Massive in complexity the huge malt character balances the insane amount of alpha’s used to create this monster. More IBU’s than any brewery has documented, more than you would believe and dry-hopped for twenty-six days straight with a combination of 10 hop varieties. Dangerously drinkable and deliciously evil. We dare you to dance with the Devil. 200+ IBUs

A hazy amber beer with a small disappearing orange head. The aroma is super hoppy - with lots of alfa acid - lovely but overpowers any other aromas. The flavor is like chewing on fresh hops giving the impression of lots of alfa acids, hop oil, and a bitter end. Nice one.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Beautiful, dark amber - almost yellowish brown head. Fat aromas of alcohol and hops. Extremely potent body, lots of sweetness and caramel on a bed of hops, hops, hops. And hops. 200+ IBUs, 10 different hop varieties and dry-hopped in 26 days is extreme by any standard. 240705

Bottled. Clear orange coloured with an off white head. Sweet fruity aroma with lots of aroma hops. Sweet fruity flavour with lots of hops. Long hoppy aftertaste. Fantastic. Thanks to Engelsmann for sharing this.

a bit aged, rich caramel flavor with lots of balancing bitter hops, the age takes the edge off the grassy aroma and allows the caramel flavor comes through, the bitterness still lasts forever but is quite tasty
