Mar 8, 2008 22oz bottle. Definite wet hop aroma that’s beginning to fade just a tad. Caramel and toffee malt with a pine resin accent and a touch of citrus zest on the nose. Pours bright copper with a decently lasting white head leaving average spotty lacing. A surprising harmoniusness on the tongue. Wet hops are there along with the right amount of caramel and toffee to balance. Getting slightly old, but the "fresh hop" taste is not lost by any means. One of the better wet hop beers I’ve had. Smooth, creamy and medium bodied on the tongue. Finishes with a nice piny resin bite and some sweeter toffee.

Mar 7, 2008 650 ml. Clear orange-amber with a large lasting head. Big aroma of fresh cut green herbs, honey, and pine resin. Big flavor is more herb-citrus-resin than malt, but still a nice undercurrent of grainy malt flavor for balance. Near-medium body is pretty smooth, with a nice tingle and a dryish finish.

Mar 7, 2008 Bottle from Bier Koning. Dark orange colour, fuzzy head. Hoppy and citrus nose. Very spicy and hoppy taste. Quite bitter. Some caramel in the taste. Really nice but almost too much bitterness that won’t go away.

Mar 6, 2008 Pours nicely amber with big head that leaves lacings. First there is a hint of sweetness, caramell and citric fruity notes. Then there is bitterness, bitterness and more bitterness. It lasts for a while and is higly pleasant if you’re in the mood for it.

Mar 1, 2008 Pours orange/amber wit ha light off white head. Armoa is light citrus fruits, hops and a good caramel malt. Flavor was citrus hops and fruits with a good malt backing. Finishes with a bitter hop cirtus. I liked this IPA better than most I have tried so far.
Thanks to whoever brought this to beer barons.

Feb 29, 2008 Pours a lightly hazy orange amber with a small off white head. Smells of hops, but with a big malt presence as well. Got a good dose of caramel with some grapefruit too. The flavor was more on the fruity side with the hops and citrus forming a nice combination. Nice balance to it, and a pretty easy drinking IPA. Light bitterness in the finish, but not a bad one in the aftertaste. Good IPA.
