Der jüngste Zuwachs im Sortiment der BRLO Braukunst aus Berlin ist das German IPA. Hinter dem Namen steckt ein unfiltriertes India Pale Ale, das mit den drei Hopfensorten Comet, Hüll Melon und Polaris eingebraut wird. Kräftig kaltgehopft, mit ordentlich „Wumms“ und anständig bitter – so wie es Braumeister Michael gerne mag.

330ml bottle from Hopfen & Malz, Aachen. Pours hazy deep amber, small off-white head. Aroma bears sweet fruity malts, marmalade. Taste continues with crystal malts, caramel, marmalade, hop fruits.. not my go-to IPA style but it’s just about manageable.

Bottle, 7%. Mild caramelly hop aroma. Cloudy copper colour. Good stable frothy white head. The flavour is quite citric to begin with but moves on to more fruity hop notes. Good mouthfeel. Decent bitterness, but not extreme as such. OK balanced.

Sampled draft @ Delirium Hoppy Loft. Dark orange, little tanned bubbles. Nose is weird stale cardboard, herbal, stale hops, insecticide hops, sugar, total mess, stale insecticide hops, more cardboard. Taste is the same, weird sweet yeast, sugar, herbal, insecticide hops, awfully sweet, milky, sugar, overly yeast, stale cardboard. Body is herbal, cardboard, yeasty, far too sweet, sugary. Quite poor for an IPA, I have definitely had better IPA’s from Germany.

Bottle: Amber coloured, cloudy, lots of floaties visible, small and quite stable off-white foamy layer; slightly tart, but first sweet-bitter aromas of caramel with traces of molasses and soy-sauce, herbal hops in the second row; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied and quite soft; slightly lingering and drier herbal-bitter and caramelly-malty finish. Not exciting, but nothing wrong with it...
