Blind tasting at Papsø’s
Cloudy golden color; small creamy head. Very peculiar aroma, dusty, grainy, grassy, with fruity hops. Some malt flavor, a bit grainy, with light residual sweetness, and the rest is hop juice. Quite good, but also strange.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Total Wine in Richmond, 7/1/09, my first beer of July, which is a completely meaningless piece of information.
Aroma: Nice mix of caramel, earthy hops, citrus fruits, a little honey
Appearance: Poured a nice looking cloudy caramel like orange-brown color, with a huge frothy off-white head
Flavor: Nice hop flavor with a pretty big sweet malt backing, and finishes with a bit of an odd tang
Palate: A decent mouthfeel, nice medium body
Overall Impression: I liked this one, it's pretty interesting, and it does a nice job of bringing malt characteristics to a IPA, something in the end palate just didn't work quite right, so I deducted a bit off the flavor for that, otherwise, it was a really nice beer.

Bottled. A hazy light amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of hops, grass, and fruit, while the flavor is sweet with notes of hops, grass, and grapefruit.

From bottle, blind #22. Pours cloudy orange with a small white head. Dry wooden and slight peachy aroma. Sweet, wooden and caramel malt flavoured. Light grapefruity and dry flavoured into the finish. Quite dry and slight grassy finish.

Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of yespr/Ungstrup. Slightly hazy amber golden with a creamy off-white head that leaves some lacework. Aroma of caramel and a little fruit. Medium body, sweetish fruit and caramel, some peachiness and a fairly bitter - if somewhat unrefined - finish. 120609

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market Charlottesville, VA. Pours a clear copper color with lots of carbonation. Medium head with good head retention and lacing. Aroma is caramel and leafy, citrus hops. Taste is bitter citrus hops with a bit of toffeeish malts. Medium bodied. Pretty decent.

@Indiana Beerfest-12oz bottle-pours a rich to patchy off white head that laces and gold color. Aroma is caramel-medium malt, secondary pine hops. Taste is caramel-medium malt, secondary pine hops with detractors-comes across as a dry/bitter/malty APA with over boiled hops. OK carbonation.

Draught Orange amber, no head left. Citrus, but also a bit acetic acid. Very citrussy hops. Malt and discreet hops in the taste. Again cigarette ashes - the glasses? Leafy notes. Light burning MF, medium bodied at least. Not very impressive, IMO.

Bison Ipa, or is it a buffalo? No aroma, rather clean. Very bitter medicine. Appears syrupy with a tea froth top. Darker than pale yellow american lagers. Very little detectable carbonation. Terribly bitter and lasting linger. Yeww, good example of an IPA. Somebody please get me an Old Heathen for a chaser.
