We put together an A-Team of Simcoe, Citra and Galaxy with our super fruity house yeast strain to make a classic New England IPA – just a hint of bitterness, and a balance of sharper citrus fruits to stop the tropical aroma being too sweet.
Malt: Extra Pale, Wheat, Caramalt, Flaked Barley, Oats
Hops: Citra, Galaxy, Simcoe (or Nelson Sauvin)
Yeast: London Ale III

Draught Small, lacey white head over utterly hazy yellow beer. Again hopbales, hopcones and some ureum. Citrus, hint of leather. Hops, grains and some diary. Citruspeel and zeste, alternative grains/kernels, cucumberpeel. Quite hopoily/-slick. Gives a chewy impression without any real body. Quite well-carbonated. Nothing really special, but simply a good beer.

Årets påsketur gikk helt til Melkebaren, hvor jeg gikk planken: blek uklar skittengul med fint skum som varer (glass nr. 3 fra høyre). Citrusparade med mange delikate inntrykk (bl.a. ananas og lychee) uten at det blir for søtt. Deilig, fruktig bitterhet i den lange avslutningen.

Tap at Day 0 of the Prague Beer Fest. Murky pale yellow body, off-white head. Tropical aroma, though mainly lychee and some oxidation. Lychee, herbal, resinous hoppy notes in the sweetish taste, nice, but not in top shape.

Tap at BeerGeek. Med-full body, lots of cereal character. Medium carbo. Med-high bitterness, med-light juicy sweetness. Lots of fruity hops character, classic citrusy exotic mix. Light dank. A bit boring, been done a thousand times over, good though.

Аромат неплохой, есть немного фруктов но больше цитрусовых с намеками на специи и хвойные нотки. Цвет яркий и сочный, немного пенки. Вкус неплохой, все же есть и цитрсовые и хвойные, сока мультифруктового мало. При глотке снова специи и достаточно яркая горчинка. Хотя есть нотки от фруктов тоже, немного ананаса. В целом просто норм для паба.
