Hops are the name of the game with a Double IPA, but we knew we had to take it one step further. With Hop Bullet, we’re using a new technique, hitting the beer with a one-two punch of Magnum hops and lupulin dust—pure, concentrated hop flavor—directly into the tank to emphasize the intense pine and citrus flavors of classic West Coast hops.

Can 35,5 cl. Pours a clear golden with a lacing, white head. Aroma is fairly low key, more herbal than citrusy. Good, solid, malty body, fruity with a rather subdued bitterness. I suppose many would call this kinda old school, and the name is a bit of a longshot, since the hops really aren't all that prominent. But an easy drink. 200319

Nice solid and “old fashioned” ipa.
Clear golden pour with a fine solid head that leaves a fine lacing down the sides of the glass. Nice hoppy aroma. Tad sweet this one, but it has a fine bitterness to back it up. Pleasant fine lasting tail. Grapefruit hoppy, malty, some dried fruits and pine in the flavor.

Can, thanks Eddan. Dark golden with a white head. Aroma of grapefruit, grass, hops, caramel and resin. The same in the taste. The finish was on the dry side. A decent one.

Flaska från SB. Kristallklar ljusguldig med vitt skum. Ruskigt gräsig i doft och smak tillsammans med blommiga toner och citrusskal. Torr och stram och något lättare i kroppen med en ganska torr och markerad beska. Nästan raka motsatsen på alla punkter mot vad som är poppis nu - disiga, juiciga, söta och fruktiga ipor.

Pours lightly hazy deep gold with a one finger head. The aromatic hops smell of citrus and pine. The flavor is similar to many classic IIPAs with citrus and resinous hops supported by a solid malt backbone, and that's not a bad thing at all. It's well executed and tasty.
