UPDATED: JUL 28, 2021 35,5cl fles. 100 IBU. Goudblond bier met oranje gloed en wit schuim. Geur: gekonfijt fruit, alcoholisch, mout. Smaak: alcoholisch, hopbitter, harsig, citrus, en zoet. Medium koolzuurprikkel. Afdronk: hopbitter, alcoholisch.

UPDATED: MAY 22, 2021 (Bottle) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head, leaving traces of lacing. Malty, hoppy nose with grapefruit, mango, apricots, caramel, flowers and honey. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of grapefruit, mango, apricots, flowers, pine needles, honey, caramel and a generous citric, piney bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Solid and well made IIPA, with lots of hops and malt to back it up. Very nice.

UPDATED: MAR 25, 2021 Bottle from relative in September 2014, cellared for 7 years. Attack: big crisp tingly smooth Mids: incoming weighty malts, tangerine resiny hops, citrusy biscuity toffee malt, lvl5-sweetness, hidden boozy Finish: pine toffee malt, big resiny Overall: huge flavour with fine mouthfeel and stealth alcohol hit. Very smooth but compounds in booziness.

UPDATED: JUL 18, 2020 Nice clean citrus and pine aroma. Slightly dark for the style, off white head. Good strong hops in the taste, like the aroma it is well blended, not muddled or dank. Palate is oily with a sparkling finish. Very well done IPA by Bear Republic. I wish their beers were easier to find where I live.

UPDATED: JAN 29, 2020 355ml bottle. Hazy, orangey golden colour with small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Resinous, piney, slightly grassy and somehow perfumed, citrusy hoppy aroma, notes of grass, fresh hay, lemon, pine, some woody pineapple, pale malty background with an almond touch. Taste is bitter, resinous, slightly piney and citrusy hoppy, sweet-ish, biscuity, pale malty backbone, hints of grass, lemon, almond, bitter orange zest, alcoholic vestiges. Oily texture, smooth and soft palate.

UPDATED: SEP 22, 2019 Oko: ciemnomiedziane (~10EBC), lekko opalizujące, piana obfita drobnopęcherzykowa, utrzymująca się średnio długo, ale zostawiająca ładny lacing. Nos: żywiczne, biały grapefruit, albedo. Bardziej w stronę cytrusów, niż podstawka. Usta: żywica, wysoka, idealna gorycz, owoce, jest niezłe ciało.

UPDATED: JUL 6, 2019 Flaska. Disig orange med ett vitt skum. Dofter av mango, grapefrukt, karamell och kåda. Smakinslag av grapefrukt, karamell, blomster och kåda. Kraftfull och tung DIPA. Mycket fint.

UPDATED: MAY 18, 2019 From the backlog - bottle w/ LKS 2013. Pours clear gold, white head. Grapefruit, pine, orange, resin, booze. Nice classic DIPA.

UPDATED: MAY 5, 2019 From bottle in IPA glass. Follow on from Racer 5 and it's similar on a bigger scale. Pours slightly turbid gold w/big white head, what I presume is hop haze has a lava lamp effect. Piney citrus hop aroma and a good dose of bitterness in the finish. I think the 5 was slightly better thanks to the malt

UPDATED: MAR 5, 2019 July 28th, 2015 - This is a fast and sweet beer, which makes its ABV well disguised and a little dangerous. A bright orange marmalade color shines in the taster glass, and gives off an aroma of light pineapple juice, strawberries and sweet apple juice. The mouthfeel is soft and lets the sweet flavors come through fast and quick. This makes the taste just a little overly sweet, but fine for this late in the taster lineup.
