Dark amber color, good cloudy off-white head, Sweat, cascade hops, some fruityness in the nose. Quite sticky-hoppy, dry hoppy flavor, woody. Straightforward, maybe not the tastiest hoppy beer but ok. Snojerk321 (1999), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 26, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a medium copper color, slightly hazed with a big off white head that left some spotty lacing. Big citrus nose that is jumping with tangerine, lemon and also a tropical fruit, maybe pineapple or mango? Flavor was also very citrusy with light to medium hop bitterness on the finish. Another great one from Mikkeller. marcus (1881), Sacramento, California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 23, 2009 33 cl bottle from Bieropholie, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass.
App.: Hazy light copper with a large light tan foam.
Aroma: Pine hops with a nice balance of rye bread crust and slight nuttiness from the malts, the hops becomes somewhat citrusy, mainly grapefruit over time, slightly dank and lemony, peppery, transitions to slightly soapy as it sits.
Palate: Medium body, fairly loose carbonation.
Flav.: Soapier than expected, more like Goldings (?), a little vegetal, still some good pine and citrus, malts are a little more restrained here, some light caramel and bread crust; dry with nice bitterness and a light, nutty finish.
Nice brew. Rune (2840), Tromsø, Norway

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 20, 2009 Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam, consumed at Kemmel campsite, Belgium, 09-06-09 Had this in the Mikkeller Single Hop tasting with Nelson Sauvin, Warrior, Simcoe and Cascade all up for the taste off. This poured hazy amber which really was the case for all of them, slight chill haze, clingy fluffy head. The aroma is a touch sweet but its fruity. Soft mouthfeel, some perfume, touch of furry bitterness, another nice beer in this one hop series. A7 A4 F8 P4 Ov15 3.8
