Poured amber with a thin head. Aroma of huge citrus and pine hops. A nice bitter blast of hops followed by a mellow malt backbone, with the hops coming back on the aftertaste leaving a bitter and lively aftertaste. If you look you can find some orange peel and a hint of caramel as well, which makes me think the hops are just starting to fade from this one. This is a very well done IIPA.

Pours a golden apricot with a finger of creamy head that dies to sheets of lacing. Smells of huge piney, floral and citrus hops. A touch of grapefruit. Taste is of bold mutiple fresh juicy hops with a touch of malt to provide a weak backbone. Medium in the mouth with a nice carbonation tickle. Extremely crisp, refreshing and drinkable. No apparant ABV. A very good brew that is worth seeking out, especially fresh like it is right now.

Bottle from Douglas88. Pours a very nice dark red/copper color with a thin white head. Aroma of citrus and perfume accompanied by some sweet fruity malt. Strong initial bitterness followed by some nice caramel malt. Not overly sweet, but the malts provide a nice balance to the strongly grapefruity and floral hop notes. Lingering dry resins and some toasted malt as well. Definitley some earthy wood in the finish. Nice beer here. I like this one!

Appearance- great looking caramel chestnut. Excellent clarity for such a big beer. Some head initially that doesn’t hang around. Nose- sweeet and leathery malts with piney hops. Taste- I thought this was very well balanced. Oily mouthfeel with a grapefruit punch offsett by caramel cookie dough malts. Very nice mouthfeel and has a very dry woody finish. Great stuff

Bottled. Thx to Ughsmash for this nice beer. Orange red coloured. Unclear. Dense light brown head. Lasting. Pine, sweetness, fruits, herbs and a bit sterin and soap in the aroma. Flavour is heavily pined, herbal and flowery. Has citric and distinct perfumed notes. Is light sweet and has a light alcoholbite. Medium to full bodied. Dry. Very bitter and citric in the end with loads of pineneedles again.

Bottle, pours a clear dark copper with a tan head, good lacing. Aroma is hoppy, with pine/resin, grass, floral, citrus and some gentle caramel blending in there. Flavor is a nice hoppy bite, with pine and citrus; well balanced by the malts, but still a lasting bitterness. Well done and enjoyable all the way through!

Courtesy of after4ever and shared with after4ever and bitbucket. Pours deep hazy copper with off white head. The aroma is big hops from grapefruit, pine and grassy hops backed up by mild sweet malts. The taste is big grapefruit hop bitterness that balances the hop flavor with pine to grassy hops. There’s also mild sweeter notes from sweet malts and hints of late addition hop flavor.
