Avenyn Ale presents a fresh citrusy aroma that is rounded off by a pleasant bitterness. This very first Dugges beer combines Cascade, Chinook, Centennial, Citra and Simcoe hops for a tropical feel.

This is one of the first beers we ever brewed. Less than one month after Dugges Bryggeri started in 2005, the first batch of Avenyn Ale was bottled. Ever since Brew Master Mikael started thinking about starting a brewery an American Pale Ale was on his mind. A hop forward ale that, at the time, really challenged your average Swedish beer drinker. This is our always and forever beer, for as long as we can remember.

Bottle at home, from Systembolaget Nordstan (Göteborg), 10/04/14. Clear golden amber with a moderate off white head that stays for the show. Nose is melon, mandarin, straw, citric rind, hop notes. Taste comprises orange pith, tangerine, light apricot twang, melon, toasty ring. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, grass laden hop bitterness in the departure lounge. Ok APA for a tick, not one I’d care to session on though!

Ljus bärnstensfärgad vätska med vitt skum. Doft av passionsfrukt. Beskedlig beska parad med en diskret sötma. Överraskande tunn munkänsla. Lovade mer än den levererade.

On tap at Crowbar. Clear golden with a white head. Fruity and hoppy aroma with caramel, malt and hints of citrus and spices. Medium body and average carbonation. Moderate sweet with fruity hops and a lightly bitter finish with citrusy notes. Quite well balanced, but slightly watery. Nice and refreshing APA. (2013-04-25)
