2020 version known as Hoppy Xmas. Later version (2024) as Hoppy Christmas. Buckle up for this seasonal Simcoe sled ride. A fruity festive fellow that delivers an all out Blitzen of Citrus flavour by the sack load. Citrus and tropical fruits on the Red nose. Tangy citrus, papaya and pineapple Dancer across the palate. All resting on a firm malty under carriage. A happy but bitter end waits.
Hoppy Christmas - don't keep the receipt.

A golden ipa with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with resinous hops, light mineral notes, light cereal, pleasant. In mouth, a nice crisp biscuit malt with resinous hops, light mineral notes, light cereals, a bit thin but pleasant.

From Amstein, St-Légier, buying it in december 2023. Opening it yesterday, after a nice Christmas song of my son during in the school. Old style ipa, not so Christmas, it is more an ipa, resinous, malty, smooth, touch of sweetness, fairly bitter, citrus, 17.12.24, at Epalinges.
gave a cheers!

First time today travelling the gorgeous Settle to Carlisle railway, although I slept through the outward journey, this beer is being enjoyed on the reverse across the famous Ribblehead Viaduct in very wet weather. Strong and hoppy, not a huge amount of craft here in reality.

[as BrewDog Hoppy Xmas] Bottiglia. All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di sottobosco. L'intensità olfattiva è molto elevata e la maniera in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il mantello birroso superiore resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La parte liquida offre una visione offuscata. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è medio. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sul tetto della bocca si attestano sentori di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, agrumi, frutta passita e vaniglia.

4 or 5 cans in the BA flight from Heathrow to Dubai, 16th December 24. Pours a light clear caramel colour. Aroma is light malts, resin and citrus. Taste is clean, resin, bittersweet. Quite pleased to get a 6.0 abv ipa on the plane, better than Speedbird

0,33 boks fra Statens beskjedne nisseavdeling i Hønefoss, hjemme: klar gylden med fint skum som varer. En søtlig IPA uten noen konnotasjoner til julen, med mindre man regner søt citrus som en del av adventen. Fin granskuddaktig bitterhet i avslutningen.
