Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear orange to amber with a small but fading white head and an aroma of pine, ripe fruits, sweet malts, orange marmelade, figs, mandarin, booze, bourbon and prunes. The taste is medium sweet, alcoholic and full on bitter in the finish. Nice!
330ml bottle. Cloudy dark amber color. Medium size, off-white head, stays. Sweet, malty, caramel, bready in aroma. Coffee, roast, bready, malty, sweet, caramel in taste. Caramel, sweet and malty in aftertaste. Quite flat. Tad too sweet for me. Covers alcohol. Drinkable brew.
Bottle from Brdr. Schmidt Vinhandel, Viby. Pours hazy orange with an off-white head. Aroma and taste is malt, tropical fruits, caramel, peach, citrus, brown sugar. Full body. Soft carbonation. Creamy mouthfeel. Long fruity bittersweet finish.
Unclear golden color with a fine white head. Lovely hoppy aroma with a fine intensity. Medium + body and a smooth fine carbonation level. Solid balanced sweetness versus bitterness for an dipa. Grapefruit hoppy, citric, pine, fruity and some resinous notes in the flavor. Tasty stuff. And I had to go to England to get one.

W nosie średnio/wyraźnie intensywnie słodowość, ziołowość, przejrzałe tropiki, żywica, suszone morele, brązowy cukier. Barwa bursztynowa, zmętnione, piana minimalna, szybko znika. W smaku umiarkowanie słodkie, oleiste, marmolada cytrusowa, przejrzałe mango, karmel, żywica, finisz lekko rozgrzewający. Goryczka średnia żywiczna. Alko lekko wyczuwalne, ale i tak jest nieźle. Butelka do 17.10.2017
0,2l on tap @ Pikkulintu. Pours hazy golden with a medium head. Aroma is fruity malts. Flavor is fruity malts, alcohol and hops. Excellent balance. Great.
Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is resinous hops, sweet ripe tropical fruits, caramel malt, pine resin, apricot, orange, definite alcohol. Flavour is medium sweet with a bitter finish. Some harsh booze. Body is above medium. Not bad, bit too harshly alcoholic to be an IIPA winner.
Whoa Lervig like mouthfull taste. Almost like a well ripe fruits. Strong. Some spicy. Alcohol. What is this? Helt well.
Hazy orange beer with smallish head which left to the sides of the glass. Aroma has caramel malts, lots of sweetness, some pines too. Taste is sweet and caramel malts, too sweet for a DIPA for me.
Bottle. Pours a hazy orange body with a small white head. Nose is red fruits, pine, apricot, caramel, grass and hints of melon, peaches and resin. Taste is resin, grass, citric peel, apricot and hints of alcohol, caramel and bready malts. Medium body and carbonation. Smooth DIPA with great balance and lots of classic west coast flavors. Another hit from Lervig.
Bottle. Pours a clear golden beer with medium sized white head on top. Aroma has grapefruit hints, fresh citrus and also a faint hint of some white chocolate or something. Flavor is bittersweet, fruity, a hint of booze, lots grassy flavors and again something strange like white chocolate. Not sure where it’s from though, but it’s there somehow, and it suits the beer well. Fairly high carbonation going on, aftertaste is long and juicy bittersweet, Nice.
Pours hazy amber with medium white head. Aroma is tropical fruits, floral, some grass, light sweetness, fresh, some resin notes, pear, mango. Taste is fruity, resin, some bitterness, fresh, some yeast, hardwood, tropical fruit cocktail, citrus. Very nice beer!
Bottle. Almost not see-through, amber to golden colored beer with a small dense beige head. Lots of pine cones in the aroma, with grapefruit and some resins and a little alcohol. Lots of malts too. It’s full bodied, and lightly warming with a smooth carbonation. Pine cones, resins, sugary malts and alcohol in the flavor, with lots of bitterness. Lasting bitter and piney finish. Nice indeed. 170413
Kran na Warszawskim Festiwalu Piwa. Aromat lekko cytrusowy, kwiaty, utlenienie. Smak słodko gorzki, lekko cytrusy, miód, kwiaty. Fajne.
Bottle at home. Hazy orangeish copper colour, small white head. Nose is sweet, floral, honey, some orange peel. Taste is medium-high bitterness, alcoholic warmth. A bit too much
Dark golden with a white head - Fruity hop aroma - Malt body to support a fruity hop profile that olso has herbal and peppery flavour - The hop flavours goes into the finihs with bitterness - This was good
Bottle. BB 05.07.2017. Pours translucent dark orange with soapy off-white head. Aroma of ripe sweet citrus fruits and resin, nice marmaladey sweet malt base. Tastes more sweet than bitter, the finish is rather modest waxy resiny bitter - soothing and warming, yet the alcohol seems fairly well hidden. Carbonation and mouthfeel pleasantly soft. And then... becomes pretty harsh down the line. Was very nice initially but didn’t finish as such... Too bad.

Dark orange colour on the body, hazy, small and thick, slightly off-white head on top, with good retention.
Aroma has biscuit, caramel malts, orange, marmalade.
Taste is mostly sweet with some light bitter notes on the finish, biscuit, marmalade, orange cake, sugars.
Medium thick body, soft carbonation.
Not bad.
From bottle pours a very hazy amber orange gold with noticeable sediment and minimal off white frothy head which doesn’t linger for long. Aroma is sweet and sticky caramel malt with an almost marmalade like orangey citrus zestiness and resin and pine. Taste is medium to strong sweet and medium to strong bitter, both of which offsetting each other. Thick oily mouthfeel. A fine strong IPA although not quite as complex as it could be

(Draught at Bishop’s Arms Folkungagatan, Stockholm, 10 Dec 2016) Hazy amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with orange marmalade, resin, citrus peel and a touch of alcohol. Malty, fruity taste with notes of citrus peel, orange marmalade, caramel, apricots, resin and a generous citric, resiny bitterness in a finish with a touch of alcohol. Full body, with a certain sweetness. Powerful and a bit boozy, but really tasty with a good hop presence. Very nice.
Bottle. Hazy orange in color with a whitish head. Some grapefruity bitterness, sweet fruityness, ripe tropical fruits and citrus in aroma. Quite dry mouthfeel. Grassy notes in taste, some fruity sweetness and boozy vibes too. Bit of malts here too. Well hopped anyway and has got a quite bitter finish, which saves this brew.
