This double IPA is a collaborative beer brewed by Shaun E. Hill of Hill Farmstead Brewery with Jacob Storm and Morten Lundsbak of Amager Bryghus (Denmark) at Hill Farmstead Brewery in Greensboro Bend, VT in June 2013.
The name is inspired by one of Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen’s travelogues; the beer represents a vivid but fleeting memory of a productive and wonderful visit by our Danish friends to Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom.

Growler from Hill Farmstead, drank in Canaan, NH. Pours clear gold with a large, frothy white head. Juicy pine in the nose, some melon, light pee, grapefruit. Medium sweet flavor, lightly bready, with more melon, honey, grapefruit. Medium to full in body with fine to average carbonation. Good and resinous to finish with more pine, melon, piss, grapefruit. Rich. Lightly warming. Some grassy bitterness in the aftertaste. Great stuff.

750mL growler, sent from Glouglouburp (thanks a lot, Dany), pours a hazy golden / copper with a medium white head. Aroma of piney and resinous hops, and some dry crackery malts. Flavour is very dry without any residual sweetness, with pine, resinous hops, some very very subtle fruitiness, and a dry crackery malt backing. Very well-balanced, with a very dry mouthfeel - exactly how I like my IPAs. Finished resinous and dry crackery. Excellent IIPA but not up to the standard of most Hill Farmstead IIPAs.

On tap at blackback pub - Burnt orange. Not too hazy or dense in appearance. Quality lacing A whole lot of simcoe on the nose. Has a nose the reminds me of double sunshine Up front, sort of juicy with navel orange juice. Almost resinous bitterness. The malts are not dominant. Thin bitterness at the finish. There’s a mild pineapple sweetness. Medium body. Very crispy.
