East IPA unites the far-flung global roots of the style into a uniquely balanced IPA with malt-driven notes of toffee rounding out pleasantly bitter and aromatic hops.

Brooklyn East India Pale Ale, originally a summer seasonal, has been getting raves since becoming a year round offering in 1996. English malts and hops are used to brew this EIPA in the classic, heavily-hopped style of the 19th century beers.

355ml bottle into pint glass. Hazy golden bronze beer with foamy white head. Carbonation is steady and fine. Distant bready malt nose with a hint of pepper and lemon. Slight zing on tasting, full-bodied. Refreshing and clean. Finish has hints of grapefruit, lemon, caramel and bubblegum. The peppery bitterness comes back right at the end. Dangerously easy-drinking at 6.9%.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; clear light copper pour with a thin tan head, aroma has sweet malts and toffee, taste has sweet toffee malts, some pine and citrus, chewy sweetness, quite hard work to drink, off eye and ball come to mind, wasn’t expecting much and it delivered on all fronts.

Fraîcheur, subtilité et équilibre sont les maîtres mots de cette Brooklyn East IPA. L’utilisation de 6 houblons différents n’y es sûrement pas étranger. D’un titrage alcoolique de 6,9 % Abv, la Brooklyn East IPA est d’une ambrée translucide, avec de fines et nombreuses bulles. Elle ne présente que peu de mousse. Le nez, tout en fraîcheur est sur le pamplemousse, le caramel avec des notes clairement chocolatées. La première attaque, douce mais bien présente en bouche est sur le malt et des arômes fleuries. L’amertume, complexe fraîche et épicée, envahit le palais sur des notes de caramel et de résineux (houblons Amarillo, Centennial, East Kent Goldings et Aurora). Les arômes sont parfaitement équilibrés. La finale, très longue et avec une superbe présence en bouche, se porte davantage sur des arômes de pamplemousse (houblons Summit et Cascade). Cette bière se mariera aisément du saumon, des volailles voire avec des plats légèrement épicées au curry par exemple. Elle saura en tout cas vous faire voyager.
