So just who is Ingrid? Perhaps she’s a reference to the Swedish silver screen icon or maybe it’s the line seemingly spoken by every other Swedish actress in films from the 60s and 70s (we know you know the ones we’re talking about).
One thing is certain – this Swedish inspired Double IPA is not as innocent as she at first appears. A seductive body of rich malts and a buxom amount of Citra, Nelson Sauvin and Bramling Cross hops have been added to fresh Scandinavian cloudberries to deliver this beer’s raunchy tart finish.
Designed by the readers of Swedish beer blog BeerSweden, ‘Hello, My Name is Ingrid’ is a celebration of all that is great about Sweden. It does not, however, contain any pickled herrings. Or meatballs.
Malts: Cara and Extra Pale
Hops: Bramling Cross, Centennial, Citra, Columbus and Enigma.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of PeaceRich. Pours a cloudy with an off-white head. Very fresh citrusy and peachy aroma. Fairly solid body, heavy residual fruity sweetness. Again very citrusy. Good, bitter hoppiness in the finish. 150311

Draught @ OT. Unique DIPA. Pours cloudy orange/yellow, small but long lasting white head. Fruity and hoppy aroma. Notes of apricots and melon. Special and nice taste. Notes of apricots, melon and gooseberries. Long atertaste with a nice touch of cloudberries.

Draught at Oliver Twist during the 34 min the keg lasted... Pours hazy orangebrown with a compact white head. Nice brew similar to I Hardcore You, but with a rough tart berry finish. The cloudberries was a nice compliment to the hops, balanced.

Bottled. Hazy pale amber, small head. Distinct sweaty grapefruit aroma. Mid sweet withmedium-full body and rounded mouthfeel. Hugely aromatic with lots of sweaty grapefruit and long, marked bitterness. One of the best beers ever from BrewDog, fresh and zesty. I don’t sense any cloudberries, just massive amounts of Citra hops. Very American in approach.

Bottle. Hazy orange with a medium head. The aroma was guite different from your normal DIPA, hops of course but also something which was difficult to define. Cloudberries? I’ve been eating lots of cloudberries during my days. Cant say if it was cloudberries in the aroma and taste but it was something different. Ingrid was nicely balanced and not brutally bitter. The aroma was slightly better than the taste.

On tap at the White Horse. Colour; cloudy orangey-brown with thin cream-coloured head. Nose; pine, light fruits, raisin, some varnish. Taste; pine, varnish, actually quite a lot like Hardcore IPA, but with the cloudberries adding a tartness. I found it to be very drinkable and well balanced, so as this was my only opportunity I returned for another!

Cloudy amber beer, good cream coloured head. Light hoppy nose. Light semi dry palate. Creamy malt, some piney hops turning sweeter with a trace of fruit. There is some aniseed running through in the background. Piney hop finish. The cloudberries only seem obvious for a brief moment jusrt after the mid. Centennial and Citra hops. Pretty good. I’m sad that my encounter with Ingrid is a brief one!
