Apr 20, 2009 Sampled draught at Bishops Arms Folkungagatan, Stockholm. Pours out in a cloudy dark golden colour with a rich, sticky white foam. Fresh, fruity and fragrant aroma of spicy and floral noble hops, yeast, cloves, cookies, mild lemon and apricots. Medium to full-bodied with notes of yeast, cloves, oranges, apricots, fresh grassy and spicy hops with touches of dough and crackers. Long medium-bitter and hop aromatic finish of orange-peels, grass, mandarin, yeast and spices.

Apr 18, 2009 Awesome looking pour, cloudy amber body with a big soapy head. The aroma is stunning. This has got to be the best smelling beer I’ve ever enjoyed...its the standard wheaty/banana goodness of a hefe, meets a bizarre, but wonderful citric/spiced cider fruitiness. Wow. Ok, the flavor is pretty good too - something like a toned down version of the aroma. Many of the standard hefe notes are present, the tropical/citrus hop flavors really add an extra kick. Medium bodied, relatively dry, and pretty refreshing for such a big beer. Mild alcohol warmth late in the finish. This beer rules...I would like to see a lot more hopped up hefes after drinking this thing.

Apr 17, 2009 (Bottled) Opaque orange with a small, lightly lacy and partly lasting head. Very pleasant, exotic-fruity, citric-aromatic-hoppy nose with peppery-coriandery spiciness, and a touch of alcohol. The neutral flavor is wheaty-malty with orange-peel-fruitiness, but also some dull-ashy touches. Medium to full, slicky body with soft carbonation. Definitely an interesting hybrid, but unfortunately the somewhat dull flavor is no match for the great, hoppy aroma.

Apr 15, 2009 Dark, hazy, orange colour. Sweet citrusy aroma with strong hints of orange oil. Light texture, sweet on the tongue with lots of orange coming through which pairs well with the bitter (but fresh) hop finish.

Apr 11, 2009 Bottle shared with ArmEd. Aroma of bananas and vanilla offset with fruity hops - lemon and light hints of peach. Appearance is cloudy yellowish orange with a nice foamy head and decent lacing. Flavor is like a Weissbeir with a solid twist of hoppiness. Nice combination. Would love it if the ABV wasn’t quite so high.
