This is an IPA made with Pilsner malt, Amber malt and a dash of rye malt. The amber malt gives it a nice nutty flavour and a slight toastiness. The rye adds a bit of a peppery taste. On top of this it´s hopped with Amarillo and Simcoe.

This IPA will be an excellent pairing with Indian or Mexican food.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet. ABV is 6.0%. Slightly hazy orange colour, huge to large white head. Fairly sharp aroma of woody and resinous hops, a hint of smoke and ashes. The flavour seems unbalanced, some sweetness followed by sharp bittering hops. My bottle was not as fresh as it ought to be, but I doubt that this would be a great beer anyway.

Bottle from Shinanoya close to Shinbashi station. Pours clear, slight amberish hue and sparingly foamy head that is rushing to disappear in a few short minutes. Aroma fails to hit me with crazy happiness - it is more mature, has some bread malt character to it and yes, some fruity Amarillo coming out at the end also. Taste, hover, is mainly about hops. There is a bit of bitter spiciness somewhere as well but overall this beer feels stronger than it is, mainly because of all the hop oils. Unfortunately this sort of unbalances the beer, 6% is a bit weak for this load of hops. But not bad, cures your cravings for hops in no time.

Flaska från SB. Grape, citrus, karamell och blommig doft. Sträv beska som inte direkt hetsar upp en. Lätt pepprig och blommig i smaken.

Flaska från SB. Bärnstensfärgad, klar och väldigt lite skum som snabbt försvinner. Karamellig doft, toast, rostade nötter, frusen mango, ingefära och lite jord. Lite pepprig smak, sötklibbigt fruktig med mango och lite sitrus med en liten jordig eftersmak, måttlig beska. Trevlig.

Bottle @ RBBWG 2015 shared tderoeck. Clear golden color, small white head. Smell and taste malts, hops, bitter hops, a nice mix between fruit and bitter hops with a touch of resin. Decent body and carbonation.
