Most IPAs combine a large quantity of hops with a high alcohol content. With its 6% alcohol volume and wonderful citrus and grapefruit notes, the SUPER 8 IPA is even more refined and balanced. This means that you get all the characteristics of the style, without these being taken too far.

330 ml. bottle sampled. Clear dark amber, little head. Massively oily pine resin, very thick hop oil with toffee, caramel malt,... Herbal oily pine tree sap, bit too sweet herbal, bitter toffee, herbal, lightly metallic,... Body is metallic oily herbal water. Crude IPA, metallic, sweet, herbal,.. bit watery but far better than expected from this brewery. Far better than expected from this brewery, not a bad at all.

Enorm kruidig. Gedroogd gras op de achtergrond. Wijkt stevig af van de gemiddelde biersmaken.

Oh lord, another Industrial Brewery tries their take on what they think an IPA is.... Sigh... Pours clear amber, ok white head. Smell is rather sweet, grainy. Hopped. Taste is intense , bit bitter, rather sweet; very unnatural. Very wattery. Not as offensive as vedett ipa, but still very, very poor attempt to brew a style that’s usually realy good.
