Die Berge: sie sind stark, massiv und der Anfang von Vielem. So wie auch das Mountain Pale Ale. 2014 als Aushängeschild einer jungen Brauerei inmitten des Tiroler Kaisergebirges kreiert, hat sich „das Mountain“, wie es hier kurz genannt wird, schnell als fester Bestandteil der Bierol Biere etabliert. Und das nicht nur wegen des bildhaften Namens. Wie eine Lawinekommen hier Hopfen, Malz und Hefe daher. Erst ganz leicht, doch sich dann rapide steigernd. In der Nase hopfige Exotik gemischt mit malzigem Toffee und ein paar Nuancen der Haushefe. Auf die Zunge schiebt sich dann ein vollmundiger, wuchtiger Malzkörper mit karamelligen Einschlägen. Und doch bleibt der Hopfen immer präsent, zum Schluss ganz deutlich mit einnehmender Bittere. Das eigene Schwoicher Berg-Quellwasser (ja richtig gelesen. Bei uns aber kein Marketingspruch) trägt seinen Teil zum Gesamtbild bei. Und dass das Bier 7,3 Prozent Alkohol hat, erkennt man an den Ausläufern mit wärmender Wirkung. Hier zeigt sich, was ein Tiroler India Pale Ale kann. Stark sein. Massiv. Und der Anfang von Vielem.

Hazy amber with little white head. Aroma is lychee, butter, grapefruit, peach. Very fine with some fizzy tablet. Taste is not too bitter and still very fruity. Balanced, drinkable and smooth, not watery. I love this brewery!

Deep orange-copper color with big white head. Aroma is piney, grapefruit, malt snacks and cereal, broccoli. The beautiful pineyness fades away quickly. Taste is piney, malty, quite a residual sweetness. Bittersweet finish, but more sweet than bitter. Ambitious, and to some extent, it works out great, even reminds me of my favourite of the style, Alesmith, but in other aspects, it doesn?t work out perfectly. Still surprisingly good for an Austrian IPA!

33cl Bottle. A gift from a friend who brought it from Austria via Scotland to Berlin: thanks Gordon. Broached late on 22nd Jan 2016 in my Berlin hotel room. Golden orange with a slight mist, the head off-white,. Aroma had a hop lead with some tropical fruits hanging around, both citrusy and sweeter. The taste was also hoppy in nature again with some bitter citrus notes within the fruitiness. Different and interesting: I liked it.
