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.

0,33l can from Stone Berlin. Canned 14/06/2016. BB 11/03/2017. dark yellow clear color, medium big white head. smells of pines, exotic fruits, light grapefruit, mango, lychee, passion fruit, some lemon grass. lovely smell. full body, soft carbonation, nice slick mouthfeel. tastes of pines, lightly grassy & herbal, exotic fruits again, lychee, lemon grass, light grapefruit, mango, a bit malt heavy towards the finish, but overall great balance. finishes lightly bitter with citric, lemon grass and some resiny notes. overall very nice one, could be just a tad more crisp.

33cl blik, uit de nieuwe Duitse brouwerij in Berlijn. schenkt gouden met licht geel/witte kraag. aroma is fris, citrus, gras. grapefruit, den. smaken zijn redelijk tot zwaar bitter, sinaasappel, citrus, mout, graan, zo dit is een beste bak bitterheid zeg. ook lang in de afdronk, matige body, droge afdronk, had er wel wat meer van verwacht.

Can shared at home. Clear golden with white head that doesn’t last too long but leaves a nice ring. Quite grassy, lime peel, light dust, bitter leafy notes, grapefruit. Under medium sweet and over medium bitter. Medium bodied. Decent beer but I expected a bit more tbh.

2016-11-28: 33cl can (Stone Berlin). Pretty much the same as the US brewed bottle version in my opinion. Only difference is there is a slight dank aroma to this but not enough to change my rating.
2016-06-02: 355ml bottle. Clear golden colour with a one finger white head, good retention. Strong hoppy aroma, citrus and pine, malt. Taste is really hoppy, slightly sweet citrus, grapefruit, very bitter. Soft carbonation, oily to watery texture. Great IPA though it didn’t blow me away.
