Exciting and provocative, India Pale Ale provides a stimulating assault on all senses. Our version of the IPA style possesses a deep golden hue that nearly winks at you from the glass. Extremely full-bodied, its rich flavor wraps your tongue in a lush blanket of sweet malt with a spicy hop finish. Two hop varieties in the Dry Hopping provide an enticing floral bouquet, with notes of resin and herbs,creating a delightfully quaffable and refreshing ale we’re sure you’ll love!

650ml bottle. Cloudy, deep golden to amber colour with average, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting and lacing, off-white head. Piney and minimally herbal, floral hoppy aroma, a touch of grapefruit, caramel malty basis. Taste is bitter hoppy, some resin, hints of grapefruit, a herbal touch, malty backbone. Unspectacular but solid Californian IPA.

22oz bottle, shared with Hazy golden peach color with plenty of fluffy white head. big grassy bitter aroma and lots of piney bitterness in the flavor. Lacking a bit in the fresh hop flavors and more of a bitter bomb. A bit disappointing.

Bottled@CPH BF 2013. Amber colour with a small white head. Aroma is citrus, some resin, wood and mild toffeeish notes. Flavour is strong fruity and floral bitterness along with some acidic wood as well as some mild malts. A bit too much hops for my taste.

On tap at the brewpub. A minimal sized off-white head sites on top of a clear golden body. The aroma has a solid dose of oranges, as well as citrus peel and green pine cones. Really pleasant. The same goes for the flavor, which has a really nice bitterness, some malty sweetness and all the good things found in the aroma. Full body, quite dry. Lasting finish. Wonderful. 130806

Bottle, 22oz. A clear, golden beer topped by a dense, finger-thick off-white head. Lots of hoppy aromas in this one, grass, pine cones, tropical fruit notes, resins and some pineapple. A touch of pale malts in the back. The flavor has a fine bitterness, slightly overpowering the malty flavors. Resins, pineapple notes and some pine cones in the flavor. Full body, pleasant carbonation. Lasting bitter finish. A bit unbalanced maybe, but nice anyway. 130420
