HOPS: Challenger, Cascade and Hersbrucker. A stunning India Pale Ale (IPA), don't think that Belhaven's Twisted Thistle has anything jaggy, spikey, prickly or otherwise pain-inflicting in its nature. Quite the opposite. Your taste buds will tingle with pleasure after a sip or two of this golden nectar. A real treat from our master brewers in Dunbar.

It a nice, classical and solid IPA, on the English way, hop, fruity, malt hidden by the hop, refreshing at all the time, 14.06.17, drinking it probably at Paris.

Draught from shoolbreds. Poured a transparent gold. Hops and such but a bit creamy. Good stuff.

Pours amber colour liquid with modest head. Aroma of grain, burnt rice, honey, herbs. Medium body. The taste is pretty bitter growing up & lasting through the finish to the aftertaste. A bit overhopped to me. Not a highlight both of style & brewery.

Bottle. Golden color with a surprising small head for an IPA. Aroma is skunky, with a touch of citrus. Taste is rather bland for an IPA. Too skunky in taste.

this was a great IPA. this is a good example that american IPA’s dont have to be uber hoppy to be hoppy and flavourful. great hoppy nose, but its not insanely bitter. a really refreshing beer, very well made, one of my favorites.

Bottle from Dikkers Slijterij, Hoogeveen. Malty and sweetish aroma with biscuit malt, caramel, mild fruity notes and hops. Flavour is above moderate sweet and almost medium bitter. Body is medium. Okay English-style IPA.

Запах очень солодовый на удивление. Немного фруктов. Цвет красно золотистый. Вкус горчит, ощущаются сладкие цветочные нотки, горечь хмеля. Послевкусие слабое, в основе фруктовое. В целом слабая ипашечка.

Bottle 0,5ltr: Clear amber coloured brew with an taste of fruits, citrus and orange. Aftertaste is American-like hoppy bitter.

eh. it's interesting. a slightly better flavor to most ipa's but nothing other than slightly special.
