This is my second time reviewing this beer. This one has been aged for quite some time.

Pours a deep orange/gold with a giant frothy rocky very light tan head. Great head retention and lacing. Good carbonation.

Citrus and piney cedar resiny and spicey herbal notes on the nose.

Surprisingly, the taste seems more bitter after cellaring for a while. Although the malt has come forward a bit, this makes the whole thing all the more interesting.

I would also undeniably call this a full bodied beer now. Sometimes the high hops mask the true richness of the beer. I always like what happens when aging a great IPA. You may generally enjoy it more in it's ideal state. But it's always worth setting one aside for a year or two. The education is worth it.

What a great beer.

650 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 8.5%. Hazy deep golden to brown colour, moderate to low coarse head. Intense aroma of American hops, orange marmalade, pine and crystal malts. The flavour is intensely hoppy from start to finish, fruity, resinous and very bitter. Fairly sweet malts in the background. Long bitter aftertaste. Your tastebuds will never be the same again - at least not in an hour ...

Bottle from Brewers Haven. Orange/ golden body with small soapy head. Appealing aroma leaning more on the hops, but also featuring a robust malt bill. Taste comes into full bloom with the hops, not overdone, but with a nice resinous flavor that lasts from start to finish. Balanced and delicious, slick, taste lingers.

Hits the dark orange stride, good 1/2" white head on top. Aroma hit pine and citrus.

Heavier malt bill than the great ones have. Moylans always seems to roll that way. Lots of caramel and toffee. Sticky, warming alcohol presence.

Bomber format is expensive, would not repeat, even though a good, not great beer. Moylans is good when you want to feel like its the 90s again.
