India Pale Ale first made its name in the 19th century. Here's hoping our pioneering IPA can make its mark too.

Its fervent hoppy character hails from the unique addition of large quantities of hops at three separate points during brewing. The result is a beer that's rounded yet refreshing, with delicate floral notes and oodles of zesty freshness.

Malt: I & G Ale Malt & Wheat
Hops: Goldings & Styrian Goldings
Maturation: Lightly toasted American oak heartwood in our Oakerators®

5.4/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
Bottle A clear one, golden in color and with a small, off-white head. Quite a lot of acetone in the aroma, with some oaked hints, fruityness, some peaches and vanilla. Grass, butterscotch and caramel too. The flavor has peaches, vanilla, oak, acetone and a touch of bitterness. Medium to full body with a nice carbonation level. Sour, grassy finish with peach hints. Not very good this one. 150314

Bottle from Seoul Plaza. Cclear golden colour. Aroma fruity flowery hoppiness. Taste also rather hoppy, fruity, lemony. Bitterness rather restrained. Candyish malty sweetness. Easy drinking. Woody in the finish, if at all.Quite good.

(bottle, 33cl) Clear, golden colour with a short off-white foamy head. Biscuity malty aroma with notes of butterscotch, toffee, vanilla and subtle fruity notes of lemon. Bitter-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Mildly biscuity malty taste with toffee, fruity notes, oaky accents, vanilla; bittering and drying hops towards the finish. Okay, not a must. 05.XII.14

Big offwhite head. Clear amber body with carbonation. Fruity vanilla and banana aroma with wooden notes. Dryish resiny fruity vanilla taste with wooden notes. Mid-bodied. Prickly, fizzy mouthfeel. Dryish vanilla and cinnamon aftertaste, kind of perfumy, gradually turns papery. It’s an interesting beer, but that papery finish I really don’t like. (0.33l bottle, from Gulating Ølutsalg, Strømmen.)

Sampled on draft this beer poured a bright yellow color with a medium sized white head that left minimal lacing. The aroma was dryish and bitter with a bit of cedar and vague fruity hops. The flavor wa stangy, artificial sugar, cedar, tart fruity hops and perfume. Long cedar and perfume finish. Medium body. Meh.
