Ipanema is an India Pale Ale 6% which reveals a powerful bitterness under a coppery hue. Its hops have bewitching aromas, yet it is a malted body that allows this beer to obtain balance with pleasing roundness. Its fruity scent comes from North American hops, and its bitterness is ideally combined with spicy dishes.

Drinking this beer the 30th of december. Enjoying the final of the year 2024. As usual and for me, I find this ipa, tasty and good, rather dry and mineral, full aroma of tropical fruits, bitter, citrus, dry malt, aromatic and floral, 30.12.24, one of our classic ipa, easy to find in Switzeeland, commercial but it is still a good one.

Very good, dense, yellowish head, stable over fully hazy orangey beer with a slight mossy sheen; lacerings. Fresh greenery and exotic fruit; bit peanuts, fruitpeel, grapefruit. Smell of nectarineskin. Strawlike taste, dry bitterness, but with considerable maltsugars in the background. Every sipe gives the dry bitter flavour anew. Light body, light resiny slickness. Average IPA, certainly not bad. Txs to Joren & gang!

Bottle 33 cl. Hazy golden with a lacing, off-white head. Greasy, oxidized hop aroma. Medium body, dry fruitiness with a hint of caramel - but all dry. Very bitter finish. 301024

Looks like pulp! Can pour is murky and yellow with some rocky white head. Nose has light tropicals, some grass, some dried herbs. It's unoffensive but also lacks some aggressiveness. Flavor is chewy malt, maybe some oats here, citrus, light herbs. Decent enough.

Swiss road stops. Pick up some beer, some Swiss chocolate. And let the kids run around!

Bottle. Quite nice classic IPA. Low to medium bitterness. Hoppy pineous. Citruses obviously. It's fine
