Our IPA uses Columbus, Chinook, and Cascade hops, and is further dry hopped with Magnum and Willamette. 2-Row Pale, Vienna and Crystal malts balance nicely, resulting in a bright, citrus forward flavor.

Can from Burg Bieren, Ermelo. Aroma is fruity hops, citrus, malt, peachy notes, pine, orange, with a hint of caramel. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a firm bitter finish. Body is medium. Nice classic IPA with fruity piney hops and a decent malt backbone. Very agreeable.

Tap at Brody’s. Bit hazy dark golden with fluffy but lasting off white head. Sweet malts, tea, caramel, light orange and grapefruit, bitter grassy hops, light herbs, soft doughy notes with a touch again of caramel and roast. Medium sweet, bitter and bodied. Meh, I don’t get why you should import this to Europe actually.

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours intense gold with fine white foam. Aroma is caramel and resinous. Body is dense, with limited carbonation. Taste is widely bitter, though with a good body to support it. Finish is very long and with persistent bitterness.

(Keg at Pikkulintu, 20170525) The beer poured amber and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and grass. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, grass, white bread, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A rather nice hoppy brew.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a golden bronzed color with a slight transparency about it. Light carbonation could be seen rising at a moderate pace to fill a finger’s worth of white foamy head. Light messy sliding lace.
The aroma had a bright sweet to bitter grassy and citrusy hoppiness up front with an ever so slight malt base in the background.
The flavor had the hoppy bitterness up front and kept the maltiness in the backbone fairly nice - some sweetness, but not too much. Decent little aftertaste blending the malts and hops. Not much of a finish, somewhat bitter.
The feel was about medium bodied with a decent sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine.
Overall, pretty good AIPA that I could have again if I could get it again.
