Next to no head - very dark copper with a hint of ruby when held up to the light.
Caramel, malts, hop resin. A little bit of orange.
Taste:Some nice fruit up front-but not alot.
Lots of malt in the middle palate finishing with some lasting bitterness.
I thought this was an OK drop, not a lot of Imperial IPA's around in Oz, but nothing outstanding all the same.
