I found a 4 pack a year ago and one survived this long. Tonight the lone survivor has met it's match. It aged extremely well and I can only hope that they make it again. I love this beer!

It smells both like wood and the bright freshness of hops with just a little bread water in the background. After a whiskey taste you get bright hops and bitterness. The mouthfeel is very light with just a little fizz. Its finish is bitterness and booze.

Had bottle version years back. Of course this draft is fresher, therefore better. Strong yet smooth with an effervescent natural flavor.

2016 vintage. Figured today would a good day to break it out. Aroma reminds me of a granny smith apple. Not a ton of flavor left. I may have waited too long on this one, but worth it.

Picked up this bottle at least 5 years ago and let it age. Figured it was time. It was good, but not necessarily better than a fresh one? Either way, here’s to y’all, Jomala!

About the best you can get. Oddly, even more delicious paired with a dish featuring melted cheese. Go figure!

Transferring from Beer Advocate. Not rating since it's been years. I just keep track for my information.

Whoa!! This was not at all what I imagined! It's a dirty pour, with a lot of sediment. I definitely get more of an Old Ale vibe than IPA. I get a strong herbal, blood orange, grapefruit taste, and I FEEL the booze more than taste it!! Unique!!!
