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.

355ml can from Vinmonopolet Nettbutikk. Shared with Finn. Decent white head over a misty warm golden body, clingy lacing. Restrained aromas of lemony hops, hints of spices. Rather rich hop fruity flavours of lemon and apricot followed by a bitter fruity tail. Well bodied. Likable. (Bergstua, Malangen 18.06.2020).

0,355l can from Alko. Canned 23.12.2019. Clear golden beer with medium- head. Aroma has pine, sweet caramel malts and hint of fruits. Flavor has same elements with caramel and pine dominating. This beer has seen its' best days, as it is already 0,5 years old. I guess this is really good and really a different beer as fresh.

(Can, 0.355 l - canned on 23.12.2019, from Alko, 20200612) The beer poured deep golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, floralness, spiciness, creamy toffee and malts. Palate was medium bodied and mildly warming with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, exotic fruits, sweetness, creamy toffee, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet, hoppy and bitter. A decent brew with fruity and sweet notes.

Delt med Rune på Bergstua. Gyldengul. Høyt kritthvitt kremaktig skum. Tynn teppelacing. Aroma av mango & fersken. Smaken tørket frukt. Behagelig tørr bitter avslutning.

Can from Alko. Canned 23.12.2019. Poured bit hazy and golden with a steady white head. Pine, dustyness, sweet and with that citrusy hops I like. Just has faded quite a lot, being 6 months old. Probably really good fresh. FInishes quite piney/resiny and ok bitter.

opalescent golden colour, moderate sized creamy off-white head; aroma of pine resiny, lemon zesty, moderate grapefruity, slight peachy and vegetable notes; very well balanced bittersweet taste with the same notes as can be felt in the aroma, as welll as some biscuiy-caramel notes; good one

12oz bottle. Poured an orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was light alcohol, pleasant pine resin with a light floral notes and some herbal spice hops. Crisp, easy to drink with a mild bitter finish.
