Aug 1, 2009 Bottle at the RBESG09, Grand tasting, sheffield. Alround rating: Massive hop win, good amount of sweet honey and caramalt coming through but its all about the citrus and lightly blackcurrent hops. Beer of the trip for me!

Jul 26, 2009 Bottle @ RBESG Grand Tasting 2009. Grapefruit and red berries in the intense aroma, with oily hops. Alcoholic flavor with loads of earthy, oily hops, grapefruit and red berries. The intensity, but also the fruit are noticeable in the aftertaste. Perhaps too intense for me.

Jul 20, 2009 Poured from bottle 684 of 1300 courtesy of the Danish folks at RSBG Grand Tasting. Poured a rich brown with just a little film on top. Brown sugar and dark fruit in the aroma. Flavor is surprisingly hoppy, but with a sweet brown sugar counterbalance. Full and very creamy mouthfeel. Overall, excellent to world class.
