From bottle, pours a Hazy dark brown colour with a medium tan head.
Aroma toffee, citrus, malt, earthy, coffee.
Taste pretty much follows the nose, very nice.

Really dark brown color with ruby hues, light brown head. Aroma is really hoppy with dank, earthy notes, no real malt character. Taste starts hoppy as well, earthy and slightly resiny. Finish is bitter and slightly roasty. Medium body with soft carbonation. Quite tasty for the low abv but also really easy to drink.

From XXXII. In Teku glass. Watching True Detective 1x02. This singlehop made me realize that simcoe provides one of my favourite profiles. No trace of roastiness, like a normal pale IPA but in black. A bit watery if warms up once the hops start to fade, so dont let it warm up.
