Mulligan stew of a beer. They tried to incorporate the ’whole world’ into this beer...too much of a good thing, I’m afraid. Too many competing flavors and varieties of hops. I’ll have to try this again to see if it improves.

Bottle (35 cl), thanks larsniclas. Shady golden, creamy white head. Fruity and malty with notes of marzipan and tropical fruits. Full bodied with soft carbonation. Very well balanced, dry finish, moderate bitterness. Another great beer from Hair of the Dog.

Bottle. Nice red/amber color. Aroma is hoppy with lots of caramel and malty tones. Some sweetness and fruity notes can be found in there aswell. Taste is bitter at first but then it transforms into some kind of candymadness! Caramel,fruity and floral notes along with some malt. Honey and some really nice sweetness finish it off. Great!

355 ml bottle, at tasting with yngwie, gunnfryd and Beer2000. Hazy brown color, nice off-white/beige head. Aroma is hops and malt in lovely combination. Flavor is heavy stuff: malt, hops, butter- Lovely! Hides the alcohol very well.

Bottle shared with the guys @ stateline. Poured an amber color with huge white head. Aroma is caramel, malt, floral, grassy hops and a bitter sweetness. Finished sweet with nice carbonation. very good and alcohol was hidden well.

Was lucky to have this beer in Seattle for a business trip. Wonderful Amber color and great hints of everything in it, but one didnt over power the others.
