| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 11, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Hopscotch. Pours cloudy amber orange with minimal off white head. Big hoppy aroma. Flavor is mostly grapefruit and citrus hops with some sweetness. Very bitter and not in a good way. Medium body with average carbonation and a syrupy mouthfeel. I can’t seem to find a European DIPA that really makes me say WOW! Skinnyviking (4187), Copenhagen, Denmark
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Apr 18, 2008 Bottle. High and lasting white fluffy head. Hazy thick looking orange body. Powerful fruity aroma of oranges and apples with addition of a good deal of hops but no sign of the alcohol. Surprisingly mild and sweet and yet hoppy flavor with low carbonation and a long bitter aftertaste. sfhodense (577), Odense NØ, Denmark

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 21, 2007 Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Hazy amber, caramelly nose. Sweet, a bit thick with full body. Quite a lot of flowery, grassy, piney hops. Salty very bitter finish. Fairly well balanced for a 10% beer. Simple, but good. Hansen (2341), Randers, Denmark
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jul 4, 2008 Golden colour, and a bit unclear. White head, mostly lasting. Aroma is kind of sweet, not heavy hoppy as expected for a triple IPA. Flavor starts sweet and finish bitter. Overall its a bit too sweet. TBone (6850), Pori, Finland

Deep orange color, small off-white head. Nice hoppy nose. Medium-bodied. You can’t guess style wrong: flowery hoppy and bitter, same time balanced IPA. There is some honey sweetness. Ok. tronraner (1938), Seymour, Tennessee, USA
