The thing about First Frontier is the hops. Easy… This is an IPA “the American way”, no sticky-sweet malt profile, just the real deal potent and aromatic hops. The result is a refreshingly dry, fresh and bitter IPA, heavily dryhopped with the three American hop varieties warrior, simcoe and centennial, dealing a punch of citrus, peach and grapefruit from the deepest of our hearts directly to ya face. Just added a bit of caramel malt; merely to harness and balance the alcohol.

Udgangspunktet for First Frontier er at skabe en IPA ”the american way”, uden en kvalm sød maltprofil, der fjerner fokus fra det IPA egentlig handler om, nemlig potent og aromatisk humle. Resultatet er en dejlig tør, frisk og bitter IPA, der er hårdt tørhumlet med de tre amerikanske humlesorter Warrior, Simcoe og Centennial, som giver noter af citrus, fersken og grapefrugt. Tilføjet er en smule karamel malt, der blot er tilstede for at tøjle og afbalancere alkoholen, der befinder sig på 7,1%.

Caña en el lúpulo 26-03-2014. 4 día de pinchado. Aromas de frutas tropicales y resinas. Sabores afrutados al principio con amargo resinoso bastante notable. Color rubio dorado bastante transparente y con poca espuma blanca. Cuerpo medio con 7.1 vol bastante apreciables. Para repetir y repetir sin duda............Botellas en varias ocasiones. Creo que la botella se encuentra un pelin mejor, mas fresca y con sabores menos maltosos.

Thx! to ST247 & Kraddel. 33 cl. bottle sampled. Hazy orange with little white head. Nose is sweetish with oranges, caramel, sugary, fruity hops and definitely on the sweeter side. Bitter grass upfront, sweetish afterwards, fruity with oranges, touch white sugar, touch floral, caramel,… Med yeasty body. Not bad at all.
