Aug 12, 2008 In short: A well malted juicy fruity tasty sweet kind-of-IPA. Excellent.
How: Bottle 12oz, drank fresh
The look: Clear redish-copper body topped by a medium beige leaving good lacing
In long: Lots of fruity hops on the nose. Super satisfying mouthfeel, a bunch of red fruits (including strawberries!) wrapped in luscious caramel. Malt bill kind of reminded me of rye-based beers. Plenty of juicy fruity hops for a smooth but tasty bitterness. Never harsh, somewhat sweet, like a fruity dessert. The type of beer I’d like to drink more often, if I wasn’t so damn busy drinking other beers.

Aug 8, 2008 Pours light red with a moderate white head. Very hoppy and malty, a very good balance between the two. A liitle more malty upfront with a good lingering hop flavor in the aftertaste. This beer tatse stronger than it is and does not go down very easy due to high maltieness. Very well rounded solid beer!!

Aug 5, 2008 Bottle 35 cl.
Deep golden orange with an off-white thin head. Nose is vinoes and I even think of Champange but also notes of malt, tobacco and toffé. The palate is light and sparklin with a taste that has bitter hops, orange-peel, light caramels and peaches... would be great to serve ice-coled as an evening-starter...
