Bei unserer Neuinterpretation dieses altenglischen Bierstils kombinieren wir in einer speziellen Kalthopfung die beiden Hopfensorten Hallertauer Mittelfrüh und den amerikanischen Citra. So entsteht ein IPA mit einer einzigartig fruchtig-herben Hopfenaromatik, einer besonders ausgewogenen Bittere und einer dezenten Süße. Ein klares bernsteinfarbenes Bier mit Aromen von Aprikose, Orange und Holunderblüten.

Bottle from Galeria Kaufhof, Köln
Hazy amber color, with a medium-sized creamy head. The aroma is fresh and hoppy; at first there is some Hallertau, then more of the Citra, but the blend is interesting, not so lemony as a pure Citra hopping, more creamy; later, it’s even biscuity (must come from the malts). Good body strength, with a smooth mouthfeel; some dry toffee is the dominant flavor, different from American IPA’s, and it’s appreciated for being dry, basically; the hopping is quite strong, with nice fruity presence (bitter oranges). Notice the usage of Pilsner Malt, Wiener Malt, Caramelmalt. The final is bitter, well constructed yet bone dry, with a very light astringency.
A very interesting new version of IPA, cultural crossover.

bottle. Clear amber-golden colour, large white head. Intensive aroma of very green hops and tropical fruit (lychee!). Full-bodied, solid malty base balancing the intensive hop flavours. Very intensive character of tropical fruits, lychee again; with a grassy-hoppy-fruity finish. Very nice indeed!

The bottle looks really great, thats the way a special beer should be presented. The beer in the glass is deep orange, a bit brownish, nice creamy head. Aroma is fruity, modest dry. The beer starts strong, quite fruity, wonderful notes of orange and lemon, not too sourish. The beer gets drier in the end, finish is a bit woody with more bitter notes, but not too much. All in all the fruity notes dominate and make the beer very drinkable. A great one!
