The colour is deep amber; the finger thick head is warm off-white. Some lacing occurs.

The medium strong smell is bitter with lots of hoppy flavours. Some sweet notes as well as a fresh hint of herbs.

The taste is fresh with bold bitter hoppy flavours. Grapefruits, lemon peels, bitter oranges and some alcohol. Overall, the flavours are more robust than elegant. Some sweetness in the aftertaste gives a necessary balance.

The carbonation is strong; the bubbles are small. The liquid is mid-smooth and a little light, which is quite odd for a 10% beer.

A welcome addition to the styles brewed in Sweden, although I found this one a little awkward and unfinished.

A: Hazy brownish color with big, white, head.

S: Fruit, Pepper, Caramel, Alcohol, Grass.

T: Citric notes, Pepper, Alcohol, Caramel, Dried fruit.

M: Very aggressive bitterness with a strong presence of alcohol.

This is just bitter with no balance to it at all. It could have used some more malt and a bit more fruity hops to make it a plesant experience.
