I’m not sure how they decide what is an american pale ale, and what is an india pale ale, cause they really are both hop bombs, well atleast this one is. This reminds me so much of three floyds alpha king. HUGE high alpha hops in the nose, insane amounts of grapefruit, and citrus. this is a hop heads wet dream, outstanding stuff if you love hops.

Baghaven, Copenhagen tap: pours copper with a white head. Aroma is light fruity, piny and malty. Weird I am having it here in Denmark. Taste is easy to drink. Clearly from a different era. Still refreshing and easy to drink. Somewhat sweet aftertaste.

A Mikkeller APA, draught at Hopishop’s B.U.M.B. in Antwerp. Very creamy, frothy, regular, egg-white head consisting of a thick mass of extremely tiny bubbles - almost looking as if it went through a nitro tap and leaving thick patches of ’papier maché’-like lacing; hazy peach blonde robe with an ochre-ish ’dirty’ hue to it. Aroma of orange peel, old cloves, biscuit, dry hay, dried mango, bitter honey, strawberry, cucumber, apricot, moldy grapefruit. Crisp fruity onset, hints of peach, pineapple and strawberry with a sourish unripe stonefruit accent, finely tingling carbo, biscuity malt sweet core with a toasted edge blending with the spicy, grapefruity, aromatic, resinous but only softly bittering hop character that colours the finish. Pleasant enough like most of Mikkeller’s APAs and IPAs, but a bit on the ’dirty’ side in terms of yeastiness.
