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.

0.33 bottle. Sötét barnásvörös opálos szín, gyönyörű barnásfehér hab. Illata aszaltgyümölcsös, komlós, emellett picit karamellmaláta is érződik. Íze komplex. Az aszalt szilvás, barackos íz mellett lecsengésben finom komlós keserű íz. Az alkohol azért érződik, de inkább csak konyakos jegyekkel. Remek, pont jól szénsavas, nagyon összetett finom sör.
***
Dark brownish red opaque color with beautiful brownish white foam. It smells of dried fruit, hops, and also has a bit of caramel malt. The taste is complex. In addition to the prune and apricot taste, it has a delicate bitter taste of hops. Alcohol is felt, but rather only with cognac notes. Great, just well-carbonated, very complex fine beer.

0,33 bottle from Auchan. Mély vörösesbarna szín, tökéletesen borostyánsárga, nagyon nagy, tartós, szép, piszkosfehér hab. Zöldfüves, fenyős, lime-os friss illat. Ízre karakteresen keserű, gyantás, csak icipicit citrusos íz. Nagyon jól szénsavazott, az alkohol szépen elrejtve. Picit az APA-kra jellemző citrusosság, amerikai komlósság hiányzott, inkább igazán "füves" gyantás komló íz jött át, de finom kivitelben. Markáns, de könnyű IPA, érdemes kipóbálni.
***
Deep reddish brown color, perfectly amber, very large, durable, beautiful, off-white head. Fresh aroma of green grass, pine, lime. The taste is characteristically bitter, resinous, with only a tiny citrus taste. It is very well carbonated, the alcohol is nicely hidden. There was a bit of the citrus and American hops typical of APAs, more of a really "grassy" resinous hop flavor came through, but in a fine finish. Strong but light IPA, worth a try.
