Pours a dark amber colour with a white head. Aroma of sweet malts, fruits, caramel, hops. Malty sweetness and hops in the moderately bitter aftertaste. Most of Emelisse IPA’s are very hoppy, but here the malts dominate.

Pours a pitch black with a beige head. Aroma of roasted malts, liquorice, dark chocolate, peat, coffee, oak, Ardberg whiskey, smoke. Flavour is peat, liquorice, whiskey. Nice long bittersweet finish. My second White Label from Emelisse, another true winner.

Almost black colour with a small beige head. Aroma of marshmallow, sugar, caramel, candy, chocolate. Flavour is cloying marshmallow sweetness, very sugary. I’m usually a big fan of Emelisse, but I do not like Marshmallows and the sweetness of this brew is beyond my tolerance level.

Aroma of citrus, smoked malts, rye, tea, floral hops. Flavour is citrussy, wood, subtle smoke. Finishes rather dry with some herbs and hop bitterness in the aftertaste. Interesting take on the IPA.

Aroma of roasted malts, peat, oak, coffee, charred wood, whiskey. Flavour is sweet and smokey, roasty and peaty. Body is thick and mouthfeel is sticky. Wonderfully intense like most other Emelisse White Label brews.

Aroma of malts, grass, citrus, grapefruit, aromatic hops. Flavour is fruits and hops with good bitterness in the aftertaste. Body is a bit on the weak side, but it’s remarkable that Emelisse managed to brew such a tasty beer with only 2.5 Alc.

Aroma of citrus, light yeast, some spices. Flavour is yeasty and fruity with a welcome hoppy bitterness in the finish. Lively carbonation.
