Feb 1, 2009 Bottle - Poured a slightly cloudy darkish orange-amber in color with a small whitish head that quickly faded to a thin covering over the beer with a fair amount of lacing on the glass. Aroma is surprisingly malty and slightly sweet... not nearly the amount of hops that I expected. Flavor is strong of flowery hops with medium bitterness. Decent malt structure backing up the hops. Finish is fruity with plenty of malt and a lingering hop bitterness. I really like this one... not a traditional IPA in my mind, but really good...

Dec 1, 2008 Big offwhite siny coarseish head. Hazy reddish amber body. Hoppy tropical fruit aroma with soft malty notes. Dry-bitterish resiny tropical fruit taste with citric orangey wooden malty notes. Soft, mild mouthfeel apart from the bitterness. Bitter resiny fruity aftertaste. Bitterness lingers. Nice. (0.355l bottle, Systembolaget Nordstan, Göteborg.)

Oct 19, 2008 courtesy of Per - pours a hazy dark orange colour with a firm and persistent pale beige foam; beautiful lace; relatively understated aroma of orange peels and grapefruit; clean and rounded palate, medium to full-bodied, respectable bitterness; quite dry and long fruity and hoppy finish - efficient, balanced and unexaggerated

Oct 4, 2008 Bright amber colour. Thin head. The aroma is a strange mix of phenols and earth. Earthy, woody taste with moderate bitterness and a hint of diacetyl. OK, but doesn’t go that far in terms of pleasing me, on account of the diacetyl and phenols.

Sep 15, 2008 Bottle. Amber pour with a mild hop and malt aroma. Mild hop flavor and a bitter finish. It was too thin for me but liveable.
