Generously dry-hopped with Amarillo and Simcoe for a bright, piney punch, 1500 brings together orange blossom and grapefruit notes with a touch of honey sweetness. We don’t like choosing favorites, but 1500 is our perfect everyday hoppy beer.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dagan’s place. Thanks Ariel. Hazy yellow-ish color. Great citric hoppy aroma with some tropical fruits. Flavor has light sweetness and nice fresh bitter fruity hops. Medium-bodied and a bit over-carbonated. Lovely.

12 oz bottle from De Bierkoning. Golden to orange color. Big rocky white head. Aroma’s of pine, citrus & resin boast out of the bottle, along with some grainy maltiness. Flavor is fairly bitter. Lots of carbonation, but still enough body. Dry, long lasting bitter finish. Very nice!

Bottle. Cloudy golden beer with a very strong frothy head. The aroma is reasonably hopped, and the flavour is more so hopped with a mellowish bitter finish. Overall a reasonable well hopped pale ale.
