beautiful red mahogany color. Big dried strawberries grapefruit cherries apples crumble. Great depth, big bitterness could use more malt backbone and be less dry, but amazing depth. The malt character is also great. Not perfectly balanced but fuckin great red ipa

330 m bottle from mixed 6-pack delivery from the brewery. Clear amber, copper pour with some white bubbles on the top. Nose has deep maltiness, light dried fruits, yellow ripe plums. Quite a lot of hop bitterness in the flavor, bready malt notes and spicy fruitiness in flavor. Clean, easy to drink, bitter.

Got new beer and sunshine so I popped out to an empty stretch of the Kamogawa in my way shopping... Yggdrasil Hop Ensemble Red IPA 6.66% Amber-brown with light beige foam and a biscuit caramel malt plus piney hop aroma. Smooth medium to full body with a quite bitter piney bite. Solid.

Tap at Koumin. Hazy red with lace. Nose is cherries, berries, citrus, light caramel, pine. Pony flavor of berries, cherries and citrus. Nicely peppery and bitter. Maybe a bit past its prime but good stuff.

Sharp hoppiness, some strong malt too. Good stuff! Second time round even better! Lovely berry fruitiness, pleasant biscuity maltiness. Great stuff!
