Back in the day England had expanded its territory, even to India. To supply our troops with ale we added extra malt and even more hops to conserve the ale for the long journey ahead. A new ale was born: India Pale Ale (IPA). The ships to India were protected by sea lions. Our Sea Lion’s IPA is special and different from our other ales; it is a strong ale! Real English, nice and bitter.

Tasted in the brewpub on cask (so it's completely still, no carbonation at all) opalescent orange to amber colour, medium sized creamy ecru-ish head; aroma and taste of a classical English IPA with moderate fruity, floral, biscuity, hoppy and also some slight earthy-barnyard-like notes; intersting one

On tap as Animal Army Sea Lion’s IPA at Fiddler’s brewpub, the Hague. Pours hazy amber topped with thin white head. A gentle fruity nose with some grassiness. Moderately bitter with ladting aftertaste. Best of the tasting flight.

flesje via trade met @Sjogo, bedankt ! 2/19. schenkt wazig ongefilterd gouden met oranje gloed en witte kraag. Aroma is wel goed vers, hop, fruitig (sinaasappel, mango, abrikoos. jam), Smaken zijn fris, lekker fruitig, met name de abrikoos en de jam achtige tonen domineren, daarna wat sinaasappel, gist, mout, matig zoet, licht bitter, wat suiker, wat aan de dunne kant, maar voor in een brewpub te drinken is er helemaal niets mis mee. ik snap de lage beoordelingen dan ook niet.... echter na een tijdje wordt de gist en mout iets bepalender.

Cask handpump at The Fiddler Brewpub, Den Haag, Sunday 2nd October 2016 Pours hazy gold with a white head. Creamy in the mouth, not really IPA territory at all, it’s ok but more like a rather ordinary UK golden ale, much like the Fuzzy Bear this is ok but no great shakes. A6 A3 T6 P3 Ov12 3.0

Sampled from cask at the brewpub. Clear, golden yellow, no head. Sweetish, fruity aroma of caramel, honey, orange jam and some apricot. Sweetish-malty, moderately fruity taste of caramel, honey, straw, orange jam and apricot, followed by a short, slightly bitter, a little grassy finish. Medium body, slightly oily mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle at home, take out at the bar for €5+. Crazy price for a take out bottle of ’homebrew’. Hazy pale brownish amber with white head. Sweet caramel malts, dry barley malt, non fermented wort and added sugar, light fruity dank wet hops, bitter tea leaf. Moderate sweet and over moderate bitter. Medium body, low carbonation. Dry in the finish. Weak watery bitter ale with a serious ’my first homebrew ipa’ quality issue. Poorly filled bottle (barely up till the neck) with huge chunks of yeast. It’s amazing this sells. Feed it to the tourists, I guess... //// After-Whiskey Festival biertje bij The Fiddler: Not the kind of IPA you’re hoping for.
