This bottle contains an India Pale Ale from a bygone era. An era of towering sailing ships, burgeoning empires and world shaping beers. This is an ale handcrafted with British malts and English hops to recreate epic IPAs that were sent on monumental ocean voyages from England to India by sea in the 1800s.
Old World IPA is an attempt by punk post modern Scottish Brewers to pay tribute to a 200 year old odyssey and heritage with a healthy dose of swash-buckling adventure.
Malts: Extra Pale, Amber, Crystal
Hops: First Gold, Challenger, Bramling X, Golding

Poured from a 660ml bottle, batch 246. From Vinmonopolet bestillingsutvalget. Patchy surface over an unclear apricot coloured body. Fragile lacing. Mild brown malty nose joined by hints of orange, dusty hops. Blended flavours of fresh and dried fruits, apricot and ripe citrus. Bread-like malts beneath. Rounded mid-dry bitter ending. Noticeable alcohol on the swallow. Just alright, however nothing to get overexcited about (Tromsø 11.04.2015).

Bottle from Cocktails, Littleborough. A cloudy amber coloured ale with practically no head. Full of hops and a slightly stewed tropical fruitiness, it’s a very tasty IPA that does not taste its strength.

Bottled. Orange colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is fruity, floral, nectary and some mild toffeeish notes. Flavour is similar, but also has a bunch of grassy and earthy notes to balance the sweetness up. Actually a pleasantly balanced brew. In a way rather English IPA to the style.

Botella de 66 cl de cervezalandia, tomada el 02-08-2014. Lote 246 hasta 14-10-2014. color marrón muy turbio con espuma beige persistente. Sabores y aromas maltosos ligeramente dulces y afrutados tropicales. Cuerpo medio con 7.5 vol bastante buenos. Amargo no muy pronunciado y bien combinado con el resto. Bastante buena, para repetir de nuevo.

Bottle from Lekker Bier, batch 246 BB 14-10-14, large sample, served in a tulip glass. Slight hazy golden color, short head. Soft aroma of piney and grapefruit hops, some biscuity malts, slight citrus. Not quite fresh enough to properly appreciate the aroma Im afraid. Medium bitter in taste, slight sweet caramel. Seems to be very decent stuff, like the punk IPA, but I should get a fresher bottle.
