Bottle at Ølbaren, Copenhagen
Amber color; creamy generous head. Good ipa, with caramel and toffee flavor, and partially aromatic hop, and of course strong bitterness; also lightly fruity flavor and light earthy/manure aroma; the bitterness is getting lightly astringent at the end. Quite good.

Bottle at Post Zythos Struise Tasting 08. Pretty big IPA, lovely malts, but just not quite as good as the 21st Amendment IPA I drank it next too. Bit more toffee and a bit emptier in the mouthfeel.

tap at the brewery - Pours copper with an average sized white head that lingers and leaves lots of lacing. The aroma is big on the citrus hops and grapefruit really comes through in the hop dominated flavor. It’s full bodied, fairly well balanced, and has the expected long, bitter finish. Nice beer.

tap at the brewery - Pours black with a thin, long lasting tan head. It has a huge coffee aroma and flavor which blend wonderfully with the dark roast malt base. It’s balanced, very tasty, and wow, I never would have guessed the 12% abv. The brewer confirmed the presence of lots of coffee in this beer (obviously) and said some vanilla was used as well. Great beer!

tap at the brewery - This brew should possibly be under a separate entry, but I’m not sure where. They had it listed as 8%, so it’s maybe not the somewhat strong barrel aged Sea Monster already listed here. But I’m pretty sure it was different than the standard bottled brew. What I got was a near black beer with a tan head. The flavor was very sweet and had a very unusual taste to it that I couldn’t place, so I asked the brewer. Grand Marnier was involved. If I remember correctly, it was oak chips soaked in Grand Marnier that were used during the brewing process. Frankly I’m not convinced the result was as good as this stout might have been without them, but it was certainly an interesting, creative effort.

tap at the brewery - What an appropriate name for a barley wine... it pours dark amber with a thin, long lasting head. The aroma is of heavy malt and dark fruit. Those fruit notes carry on well through the malt rich flavor. Some good hops accents kick in to balance it out and there’s some fairly mild alcohol presence. This barley wine is excellent.

tap at the brewery - Pours very dark brown and has a coffee rich aroma of dark roast malt. The flavors of roast malt and coffee accents are well balanced by some quality hops. It’s medium bodied and overall a very enjoyable porter.
