We craft this much like a sculptor who uses only a hammer and chisel to shape stone into a masterpiece. Hoppe is spawned of these few essentials: barley, wheat, hops, yeast and water. This limited palette is an exercise in minimalism, with refined elements which are deliberately selected. This simple combination creates a golden shimmering brew infused with delicate aromas. The artful nature of this beer is exposed with the first taste. As the malt and hops created a composition of flavors, and elegant finish leaves an impression that your tastes will not soon forget. Don’t be deceived by the innocence of Hoppe. Please enjoy in moderation.

Bomber. Pours orange tinged gold with a foamy large whiteish head. The aroma is floral. Very. Full bodied with mild and creamy carbonation. The flavor is floral/fruity hop over a standard malt backbone. It finishes very smooth, slick and hoppy. It’s not a harsh hoppy, but it is a very sturdy hoppy. Very anti-oxident. Very, very tasty. I nominate this for the beer I drink everyday. If I could get it. :(

Bottle@Konttori, Tampere. Deep golden colour with mediumsized fluffy slightly off-white head. Aroma is lots of hops, quite sweet malty along with some alcohol and mild floral notes. Flavour is fruits, sweet malts, some slight alcoholic sweetness as well as caramel malts. Mild vanillaish notes as well when it warms up.

Strong aroma of dried hay, with strawberries, and rose hips. Clear golden, medium white head, constant streams of carbonation, good lacing. Medium body, hay and toffee flavor, with strawberry notes detectable. Peppery celery finish. Intense, with fair balance and a bit of fruitiness, considering the base style. Still, this beer is mainly about the bitter. I like it.

Medium offwhite head. Yellow body. Harmonic floral honey, fruit, and malts aroma. Very impressive. Dry-sweet citric peachy gasoline taste with herbal notes. Mid-bodied. Sharpish chalky mouthfeel. Dry-sweetish strawy banana aftertaste disappears quickly. Relatively mild and balanced for the alcohol. (0.65l bottle from DavidL.)

Bottle. The color was yellowish, fairly light one. The foam was white and a couple of centimeters high. Nice aroma of hops, caramel and fruit. The flavor contained course a lot of hops, citrus, caramel and tropical fruits. Not that much grapefruit. Bitterness was there but it was not too intense. The beer seemed balanced, easy to drink.

Bottle. Fresh grassy hops. The wheat makes it more complex and "european".
