This is our take on a double IPA. Although some would consider it somewhat ‘Belgian’ in its malt and yeast profile, we definitely crammed in all the juicy, fruity and fresh hops that any hophead could possibly wish for.

With Elliot, we tried to create a refreshing beer that’s dangerously drinkable while still maintaining that unxious mouthfeel that Struise is so renowned for. Being able to either quaffed or sipped, this is one of our most versatile multi-purpose beers.

On tap at Cafe Rose Red, pours a cloudy dark orange amber with a large creamy beige head. Aroma is on the maltier side, bringing out lots of caramel malt, resinous hops, and some metallic notes. Flavour is very similar, with a very sharp woody hoppy bitterness, very pronounced metallic notes, and a very sharp yeasty finish. Very dirty beer with a metallic throughout. Struise didn't really nail this one, sadly. Not too good.

On tap at Craft Beer Co, Islington on 11th May 2014. Thickly hazy copper with cream coloured foam and travelling lace. Richly malty, yeasty and spicy aromas. Rich and intense hops in-mouth with spice, malt and berry fruits. Intense, short hoppy finish with spicy notes and touch of black pepper. Smooth yet engaging texture and masses of body. An excellently crafted beer.

Keg at Angel, 1st May 14. Horrible DIPA, worst I have had, far too much sweet malt too heavy and not a clean drink. We both took this back.

Vintage 2013. A wiec chmielowa kolaboracja z Mikkellerem, chociaz nie ma wzmianki na etykiecie o tym. Piwo ma spora i mocna piane, kolor rozowo pomaranczowy, metnawy i pachnie zgnilymi pomaranczami i rozowym grejfrutem. Dosc intensywne w zapachu. Double IPA takze smakuje wybornie. Jest glebia i bogactwo smaku, zwlaszcza cytrusowo slodowego posmaku. Alkohol ukryty. Wytrawne w koncowce i super podwojnie tresciwe. Klasa i swietna wspolpraca. W miare swiezo wypity rocznik, ciekawe jak by smakowalo po latach.

Maroon crimson label. light head. Candy corns, caramel and very malty backbone. Certainly a shell of what it once was. i get a lot of pine, citrus, tangerine and a hint of cheese and caramel malts. Probably was amazing. Nice to try it now.
