Sep 18, 2008 ++Bottled at European Beer Festival, Copenhagen.++ Nut brown. Licorice and grapefruit up front. Dryish with dense mouthfeel. Some doughy malt supports the rich amounts of hops, which apaprt from grapefruit also gives salty licorice. Very bitter finish.

Sep 10, 2008 Bottle, 6.6%. 12 euros in One Pint, Helsinki, the bastards. Good malty aroma, slightly spicy. Cloudy dark brown colour. Small frothy tan head. Good malty flavour, dusty and quite hoppy. The hoppiness is quite bitter, with a slightly creamy aftertaste. Not what I would call an IPA, but not bad.
