Bottle into shaker pint
A dark scarlet with a grey two finger fast reducing head, moderate carbonation!
Thick mouthfeel with no carbonation
Smells: malt, hop
Taste: Leafy veggies, grass, malt, and floral hops for an awesome bite at the end.
Overall, this is a beer that I hope becomes a standard for them!

Bottled in 2013, bought March 2014 in Sweden and stored in my beercellar for almost two years.
ABV: 8.5% - Best before September 2014.
This is a dark, red, hazy beer with a two finger high, fluffy, beige-brown head that leaves a lot of lacing. A lot of sediment floating around.
Nose: Caramel malt, dried fruit, ripe apples, floral notes, vanilla, resin, apricot, red berries and yes! Still a lot of hops in the nose after more than two years!
As the beer warms up it explodes of hops - Really nice!
Taste: Almost creamy taste. A slight bitterness at the end. Dried fruit, plum, grapefruit, orange, pine, resin, caramel malt, pink grapefruit and grass. A lot of hops in the taste.
Mouthfeel: Thick texture. Medium carbonation. Soft and creamy. Dry and bitter ending. A "chewy" feeling, like taking a big bite of a great, tasty, fruit!
As you can see I really like this brew! It has matured very good and I just hope I'll still have a few bottles of this #95 - 2013 deep down in my cellar...
