Description
The HopTop Brewery Ltd. was formed in the fall of 2015 to create various high quality craft beers for the increasing number of beer lovers. As it so happens, our brewery is located in the former Royal Brewery plant, so we can return a little bit of tradition to this area.

33cl bottle received as a gift. Pours hazy amber with a large, fluffy head. Hoppy and fruity aroma dominated by citrus with some light herbal notes and hints of caramel and pine. Medium sweet with ditto flavour intensity and bitterness. Carbonation is close to fizzy, but survivable. Quite okay in the end.

0.33l bottle. Clear golden body with a thin and loose white head. Aroma of grainy malts, bread and a hint of spicy hops. The taste is a bit nutty first then bread and grains take over again. The finish shows some spicy hops. Drinkable session beer.

hazy orange to amber colour, medium sized dense and quite stable yellowish-beige-ish off-white head; aroma of tea, fruity and toasted, as well as some buttery notes; taste of syrupy-caramel sweetness, some hoppy-resiny notes, tea and moderate fruitiness; not bad, though not a serious example of its style

Elég vacak egy sör, nem csodálkoznék ha hamar lekerülne a kínálatból suttomba. Egyszerűen meg kell érteni h a mai rohanó világban már nem lehet magunkat a hidegkomlóra bízni, h az majd megmenti a sört. Minőséget kell alkotni.

0,33 bottle. Egészen mély borostyán szűretlen opálos szín. Habja barnásfehér, nagy, tartós. Illatán érezni nyers teafüvet, finom nemes komlók gyümölcsösségével. Közepesen szénsavas. Nagyon testes, finom, komlós, kesernyés, fanyar. Alkohol is érződik, de nem zavaróan. Picit édeskés, de az IPA jegyek dominálnak. A tea annyira nem érezhető, talán egy minimális kesernyés utóízben. Tömör, összetett, hab nálam végig hatalmas. Nagyon finom és ajánlott!

Quite deep amber unfiltered opaque color. Its foam is brownish white, large, durable. On the scent you can feel raw tea grass with the fruitiness of delicious noble hops. Moderately carbonated. Very full-bodied, delicious, hopy, bitter, astringent. Alcohol can be felt, but not disturbingly. It’s a little sweet, but IPA tickets dominate. The tea is not so noticeable, perhaps with a minimal bitter aftertaste. Compact, complex, foam is huge with me all the time. Very delicious and recommended!

0,33 bottle. Sötétebb és egy kicsit szűretlenebb opálosabb a szokásos lagereknél, habja is nagyobb, nagy lyukú és paplanos, érezhető hogy ebben több a szárazanyag. Fenyős gyantás füves friss komlós illat, maláta nem is érződik. Ízre is inkább egy ale-re hasonlít. Egy lagertől több szénsavasságot várnék. Komlózása finom, a maláta is érződik az ízéből, keserűség megfelelő. Nem rossz, de egyáltalán nem egy "könnyű lager". Finom a komlózás, mint ahogy a főzdétől megszoktuk.

It is darker and a little more unfiltered, more opaque than the usual lagers, its foam is bigger, big holey and quilted, you can feel that there is more dry matter in it. Pine resin grassy fresh hop scent, malt is not even felt. It also tastes more like an ale. I would expect more carbonation from a lag. Its hops are delicious, the malt also feels the taste, bitterness is adequate. Not bad, but not an "easy lager" at all. The hops are delicious, as we are used to from the brewery.
