Bottle picked up from Liebick Getränke which is on St.-Cäcilia-Straße in Germering, Bavaria, we're in our log cabin in Dachau, Bavaria, Germany Friday 18th January 2019 listening to Iggy Confidential on 6 Music. Pours hazy, dirty golden with a white head, sweet but also bitter, glorious and with a great balance. Lot's of tropical flavours, lovely beer. A7 A3 T8 P4 Ov17 3.9

330ml bottle. Slightly cloudy, orangey golden to pale amber colour with average to huge, frothy, mostly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Aroma delivers what must be the meaning of "dank": piney, resinous and tropical fruity notes of rotting tropical fruit, purulence, spruce. Taste is bone-dry, bitter, piney and grassy hoppy, no residual sweetness. Not my preferred kind of IPA.

Botlle from Local Swap. Slightly boozy, lots of caramelly maltiness. Hops is subdued by malt. Moderate sweetness, moderate bitterness. Not exactly my favourite. Also slightly vegetal.

Amber with little white head. Aroma is grapefruit, orange zest, bready malt. Taste is sweet malt juice with lots of hop oils and some bitter alcoholicness. Quite drinkable though. Not bad.

Bottle. Cloudy orange amber, low offwhite head. Peach and mango hop nose. Medium full, sticky body, low carbonation. Resiny on the palate, sticky caramelized tropical fruit. No relief from the hop oils.

Bottle. Hazy deep golden color with white head. Aroma is floral, mango, juicy fruits. Taste is the same, with some very herbal hops and a bitter finish. Oily mouthfeel, medium carbonation. A bit overdone in its bitterness, but solid.

Sweetish floral beginning. Intense sticky herbal fruity. Lots of floralness, intense floral with lots of malty sweetness. The aftertaste is herbal with a sweetish but intense floral herbal hop oily aroma. Fascinating, but too sweetish for me.

Bottle: Golden, cloudy, small and rather quickly diminishing loose white head; citric and mainly piney hops plus a good dash of sweet malt in the robust bitter-sweet nose; solid bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied and really soft; long and lingering - with hops sticking to the palate in the aftertaste - solid bitter-sweet piney-malty finish with traces of warming alcohol.Very well crafted and well drinkable Indisches Bleich-Ale...
