9/20 too boozy and too bitter. Couldn't get through the bottle, made me really thirsty. Slight alcohol burn. Not a great taste
Bottle. Dark gold color, light yellowish foam. Aroma: juicy hops, fruit, citrus, pine, flowers, sweet nectar. Taste: malt nectar, white port wine, citrus, strong hop bitterness, pine and earth.
Aroma: pine resin, grapefruit zest, bread, herbs, a bit of licorice, resinous nose, volatile alcohol ; Appearance: Hazy copper, rocky head, white foam Taste: high bitterness, medium low sweetness ; Palate : medium to light body, oily feel, lightly astringent, lively carbonation, bitter, long finish, volatile alcoholic warmth in background. Overall a good beer, but too lightly bodied for its high bitterness.
Backlog, ocena przepisana z untappd, w ramach uzupełniania profilu na ratebeer. Doskonałe IIPA! Aromat i smak - autentycznie - brzoskwinie w syropie. Przepyszne piwo.
Âmbar de leve turbidez, espuma amarelada de abundante formação e longa persistência. Aroma carregado de caramelo, em menor intensidade pinho e pêssego maduro. Paladar de dulçor médio que se sobressai inicialmente ao amargor, mas com tempo de copo passam a se igualar. Corpo e carbonatação médios. Final prevalece o amargor misto de caramelado com pinho, de média duração. Tem uma boa drinkability mas menos dulçor e corpo que outras referências do estilo, o que se traduz em melhor drinkability mas menos presença
Bottle. Strange aroma, earthy and bit cheesy, some resin too. Taste is nice, light spice, bit of caramel, tropical fruit, good stuff. Bit boozy maybe but easy drinking. Fruit drops. Nice!
33cl bottle. Light hazy orange color. Thin beige head. Taste is medium bitter, light to medium sweet. Medium body. Long finish. Quite balanced. Aroma and flavour is hops, orange, pine, resin, mango, peach, pepper, floral, spices.
Couleur cuivrée, bonne mousse de prime abord, mais modérée sur la durée. Nez très porté sur le résineux. Très résineux en bouche également, très intense. Fortes notes de caramel également, sans aller dans le sucré pour autant. Amertume bien prononcée en fin de bouche. Vraiment chouette.
Resin and Pine dominate the nose and flavours with a big caramel backbone with solid bitter finish.
Amber pour with a decent off white head. Big resiny, pine, tropical nose with a bit of malt. Big bitter whack up front, more resiny piney flavour, not a huge amount of fruit - burnt caramel and a little boozy, with a big bitter finish
Hazy amber, medium cream head, with nice lacing. Very hoppy on the nose (resin, pine, tropical fruit). Taste is a very good balance of fruity and bitter, with caramel, resin, tropical fruits, nuts. Very complex taste that leads to a massive bitter ending. Very good!
Bottle 33cl, a copper beer with good head and retention. Nose is intense on hop resin, pine, exotic fruits, coconut oil, almond notes. Taste is very sweet and quite bitter. Aroma is on the same as the nose, the almond is more present, some caramel too, still huge amount of resin, lichee and peach notes at the finish which is very bitter, a strong iipa.
Thank you! 330 ml. bottle sampled. Dark orange, off-white. Nose is milky orange peel, hay some cheese hops, low pine. Taste is milky, cheese yeast, too sweet, low sugar, hay, malty, pine. Cheesy, milky, yeasty body. Too sweet for a DIPA, too yeasty. Decent but should have been better comming from Buxton.
Pours unclear blonde. Good White head. Smell is bit bitter, creamy, bit aromatic as well. Taste is Sharp, intense bitter, full, malty, long lasting bitter aftertaste. Bit floral. Too much carbo.
Woody pine smells. Taste is very hoppy, quite nice but not fruity as I like. Abv is extremely well hidden.
Drank with Matt at home on my birthday after Thriller Live in Macau. Smells of pine needles, apricot, orange juice, pith, very deeply bitter with some biscuity slightly musty juicy almost flat malt. Taste is heavy resin bitterness, frothy lemon lightly spicy and crysfal malt. Body is very bitter, hugely resinous and stony, end is sharp and frothy, finely carbonated, Hugely bitter esp. in the taste. Excellent.
Bottle from Brewcraft at home on S’s birthday. Translucent amber pour with white dense head. Aroma is ripe tropical fruit and heavy damp malt. Booze too. Taste is big resin bitterness with some juicy citrus and mango. Heavy booze too. Rich palate and some sweet malt. Quite good DIPA.
Bottle. Clear paleish amber with a large white head that lasts very well. Focused aroma of grapefruit, mandarin, passionfruit; some supporting bread, grilled pineapple. Medium bodied. Perhaps a little lighter than you’d expect given the assertive aroma, but consistent with it "only" being 8.2%. Sweet with lots of citrus, a fair bit of tropical fruit including some pineapple astringency I don’t love. Clean and fairly bitter at the end. Citrusy finish that doesn’t hang around that long. Has enough of a hop punch to make it a convincing IIPA, but the blend is judicious enough that it doesn’t become so abrasive as to need big sweetness and/or booze.
0,33l fles gedeeld met bitsie b. Goudoranje met een crème kraag. Mooi aroma met perzik en hennep volle bittere afdronk.
Bottle from online shop. Hazy amber color, white head. Bitter taste with grapefruit, hops, resin, pine, mango, caramel and grass. Bitter finish with grapefruit, hops, resin, mango, pine and grass. Exquisite imperial IPA.
Big rich IPA, the hops hit you on the nose in the first sniff, enticing you in. Rich amber pour and big white head. First sip and your hooked, complex and rich with all those IPA characteristics you love, then the bitter finish

Tap at Brewdog Helsinki, Helsinki. Colour is clear orange with small white head. Aromas and flavors: Harshness, ripe tropical fruits, pineapple, some resin, some caramel, hops and malts. Very strong flavors. Nice.
Full bodied. Wow. Rich. Mature. Fruity, malty and slight yeasty boogie. Belgian vibe. Crisp. Caramel.
(Keg at BrewDog Helsinki, 20160820) The beer deep amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had malts, pine, creamy toffee and resin. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were pine, malts, creamy toffee, biscuits and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty, hoppy and bitter. A good malty and hoppy brew. Good balance and drinkability.
Buxton DIPA combining Simcoe with one of its children, Mosaic. Lightly lacing, moussy, egg-white, finely structured head breaking slowly but retaining well, warm amberish orange blonde robe, showing a ’fog’ of yeast bits at the start and becoming equally misty with sediment, with small strings of fizz here and there. Luscious, enticing bouquet of fresh blood orange, pink grapefruit, lychee, toasted sweet onion or even roasted shallot (doubtlessly Simcoe), mango chutney, paprika powder, sweet red curry, cayenne pepper, marmelade, strawberry, sweet rosé wine, armagnac, biscuit, toasted bread, barbecue spices - this aroma just keeps giving. Clean but lively fruity onset, hints of passion fruit, mango, orange and lychee, sweet with a sourish edge, softly carbonated, tad umami here and there, supple and thick but smooth, oily malt body, caramelly, biscuity and lightly bready, providing enough body and ’rounded’ sweetishness agains an early hoppiness, increasing in the finish and yielding beautiful retronasal aromas of mango, lychee, sweet onion and grapefruit while at the same time offering a long, resinous, spicy bitterness perfectly balancing the malt sweetness without becoming too harsh; alcohol gives a certain warmth as expected but does not interfere anywhere. I have come to develop a strong belief in Buxton and this one, once again, proves how great they are: in general, this beer carries enough malt sweetness and body to support the ’fuelled up’ hoppiness one can expect from a DIPA, but from a more specific point of view, they have used all-purpose Mosaic in the way it should be used, namely to balance the qualities of whatever hop it is positioned against - which in this case is, probably not coincidentally, Simcoe, one of its parents. These guys very clearly know what they are doing in great detail and belong to the ’crème de la crème’ of the new ’internationalized’ English brewing scene as far as I am concerned - it’s been quite some time since I last enjoyed a double IPA as much as I enjoyed this one.
Bottle at home (on the balcony 😊). Pours a clear, dark orange amber, lovely color with a good head: an early indication that this is a serious DIPA style. Nose is boozy, taste even more so. Yet, deceptively drinkable, light at first and fresh, with resinous pine, citrus, the usual stuff, then a full, serious palate. Done very well indeed, a well-executed beer. Slightly cloying from all that alcohol, though finishes very dry, even perhaps a bit watery. All in all, yet another very good beer by Buxton.
Turbid amber beer with heavy yeast and with a slight/medium off-white/beige head. Medium aroma; taste starts medium/heavy sweet and ends slightly bitter and dry. Caramel, orange, tropical fruit, hops and citrus. 7/4/8/4
