Description
Since Arrogant Bastard Ale was first unleashed upon the unsuspecting public in 1997, the brand has been braving bold territory and upsetting dandies, milquetoasts and fizzy yellow beer drinkers in great numbers. Massively successful, and ever full of vip and vinegar, Arrogant Bastard Ale split off from the restrictive confines of Stone Brewing in 2015. And now, the brethren of Liquid Arrogance is free to explore, cavort and roam how they damn well see fit. For those Worthy few that wish to gaze upon the musings of Arrogant Bastard Ale, Double Bastard Ale, Bourbon Barrel-Aged Arrogant Bastard or other Bastard beers, follow along via Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Arrogantbastard.com.

Can from HavnensVin&Tobak. Pours clear dark chestnut brown with medium offwhite head. Aroma is malt, caramel, brown sugar, fudge, rye bread and hints of cinnamon, cardamom and sweet liquorice. Taste is medium sweet, light to medium bitter, light acidic and faint salty. Body is oily with light carbonation. Finish is long and balanced sweet and bitter with notes of brown sugar, caramel, butterscotch, roasted barley, chocolate malt, dried fruit (dates, raisins), bitter grapefruit zest, grassy hops and hints of oak, mint and liquorice. Quite complex and arrogant ;-)

473ml can. Minimally milky, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, frothy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Grassy, minimally citrusy, hoppy aroma, hints of lemongrass, quite neutral, pale malty background. Taste is moderately bitter, citrusy and slightly grassy hoppy, hints of lime and lemongrass, some chalky bitterness, rather neutral, minimally strawy, pale malty basis with subtle sweetness; lingering, citrusy and grassy hoppy finish. Slightly oily texture, slightly dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. A tad unbalanced, or better disharmonious, over-hopped - not a bad Pilsner, though!

Gold with a frothy, white head. Aroma is herbal with noticeable lemongrass. Taste is bitter, more so at the end. Finishes crisp and clean with a faint, underlying tartness. Medium-bodied, moderate carbonation. Good.

(Bottle) Dark reddish amber colour, hazy, with creamy beige head. Malty, hoppy nose with treacle-toffee, resin, oak wood, vanilla, toffee, treacle, bourbon, pink grapefruit, orange peel and apricot marmalade. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of resin, burnt rubber, oak wood, bourbon, vanilla, toffee, dried fruit, treacle, apricot marmalade, orange peel and a generous resiny, piney bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Lots of taste and quite interesting, but a bit more harsh and unbalanced than the original version. Nice one.
