May 23, 2005 [At GABF 2004] An unclear copper colored beer with a beutiful orange head. The aroma is sweet hoppy with some grassy notes. The flavor is surprisingly malty considering the aroma, but still with strong notes of hops, and the alcohol content shines thru.

Jun 23, 2008 (Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of toncatcher. Almost clear amber golden with a tiny, off-white head. Fat and oily hop aroma. Medium body with notes of toasted caramel, overripe fruit and somewhat perfumy hops. Distinct and a little raw hop finish. 190608

Orangey-red colour. Chewy crystal malt with woody hop notes. Chewy with lots of bitterness. Sweet finish. Fairly typical for the style. Nice woody hop notes. It’s ok, never was my style.

Cloudy orange coloured with a small off white head.
Sweet and fruity aroma of caramel, hops and pine needles with notes of cardemomme.
Fruity flavour of caramel, hops, pine needles, grape fruits and cardemomme.
Dry hoppy finish.
Well balanced.
