By definition, an India pale ale is hoppier and higher in alcohol than its little brother, pale ale—and we deliver in spades. One of the most well-respected and best-selling IPAs in the country, this golden beauty explodes with tropical, citrusy, piney hop flavors and aromas, all perfectly balanced by a subtle malt character. This crisp, extra hoppy brew is hugely refreshing on a hot day, but will always deliver no matter when you choose to drink it.

Taster at Erzbierschof (thanks to staff). Aroma is sweet and pine with a really dry almost dusty profile. Flavour is big hops, especially for a non imperial. There’s plenty of sweet resin and a nice bitter finish. Fairly standard for the style but really nice.

Tap at Erzbierschof. This beer is bitter but not much more. There is some forest aroma hops in the nose, but really not much else. Carbonation works, the bitter aftertaste is really striking. Not sure what I should think of this.

Sweet malts, big resiny & fruity hops, lychee, pineapple & spruce, also fudge, canned peaches, biscuits & apricot. Big nettle bitterness, quite sharp. Medium sweet, powerful bitterness. Over medium body, slick oily feel, soft carb. Bitter & fruity finish. | [2025-01-24 00:07:16] - Locatie: SjogroWorld™
