Feb 12, 2009 22oz bottle from mdm46410. Pours a hazy medium gold with a faint orange hue. A 2 finger off white head left nice lacing. Not sure why this is not classified as a double IPA.......oh well. Has a nose with some hops, more fruity than anything. Flavor was quite sweet with light hop bitterness. Finish with a medium body and a medium length palate.

Feb 3, 2009 Bottle - thanks to rudy for picking this up for me. Lovely bright golden with a large white head that leaves lots of lace. Fresh and full aroma, sweet and hoppy with notes of candied orange peel and pine needles. Medium bodied. Flavour is definitely hop-forward, with tingly hints of lemon, orange, pine and wintergreen. Malt is a bit muted, but there’s enough to add a mild sweetness in the background. A bit much for everyday drinking, but as far as hop bombs go, it’s quite a good one.

Jan 29, 2009 (Bottled, 0.66l) Clear golden with a small, lasting head. Aroma of pale malt, yeast, and some wheaty-lemony sourness. Pale-malty flavor with mellow hop presence, some alcohol warmth, pear, and hints of wheat. Medium-bodied, slicky palate with soft carbonation. Somewhat alcoholic, but at least easily drinkable with decent body.

Jan 26, 2009 0.65 l bottle at Konttori, Tampere. Bright copper color. Sweet, caramelly, warming, and hoppy aroma with pineapple and pine. Bittersweet, toffeish and hoppy flavor with grapefruity, piney and herbal hops. Tastes fortified with warming alcohol and hint of alcohol sharpness also. Good hop character but I found this a bit too sweet and chewy, not very drinkable.

Jan 26, 2009 Bottle. Low white fluffy and lasting head. Hazy amber body. Fruity caramel aroma and a bit of alcohol and hops. Pretty hoppy flavor though in combination with the high alcohol percentage is disguising other flavors. Low carbonation and a long bitter aftertaste.
