An India Pale Ale, Hair in the Mailbox is bright and hoppy at 6.3% ABV. Color is hazy golden with an off-white head. Aroma blends notes of malt, honey, tropical and citrus fruits, light floral tones and lemon zest. The palate is bursting with a blend of orange and pineapple from the hops and warm notes of pine. Body is medium with soft carbonation and both sweet and spicy. Finish is both dry and bitter with light resin and biscuit notes. Easy drinking and great for pairing with burgers or other greasy foods.

Can, clear yellow, offwhite head. very nice hoppy and exotic hopy aroma. flavor is juicy hoppy with a little bit of exotic fruits mixed in, malts are a little bit sugary, nice ipa, but i've had better - this one a bit too sugary and exotic fruity for my taste. having this one at room temperature, it might be a lot better for me if served from the fridge.

Aus der Dose im 2020-07 getrunken. Diese IPA kommt leider ohne auffälliger Frucht-/Citrusaromen daher. So macht mir diese IPA nicht so wirklich Spaß im Glas auch wenn die Hopfenbitterkeit sich in Grenzen hält.

0.33l can via Mikkeller Beer Mail March 2020, best before October 2020. Clear, golden amber with a medium large, foamy, stable, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity-resiny and slightly floral aroma of papaya, carambola, melon and some pine. Gently sweet, slightly bitter, rather fruity-resiny and slightly floral taste of melon, papaya, pine and some peach, followed by a short, moderately bitter, gently resiny finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Pleasant, classic IPA, always nice in an era of NEIPA hegemony.

Can 33 cl. Gushed when opened! Pours a clear yellow golden with a white head. For an IPA the nose is extremely vague and disappointing - close to no aroma. Medium body, initially a sweet fruitiness but the bittering hops soon take over. Wauw, so utterly bland - is this really Mikkeller?? 170220

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
