Bottle from Spar, Ordrup. golden, huge head. mild pleasant malty aroma, sort of like a biere de garde. Flavor is malty sweet with a bit of flowery sweet notes sort of as if honey were used, then some herbal bitter balance that is sort of matching the rest, although that is a near impossible task, the rest of the beer is nutty malty sweet to a point where it's hard to come back as an IPA. I had an ipa from the same brewery with the same color label, but on their other marketing label - that one was even more malty and even less hoppy and that did not work at all. This one, however, must be a different batch, the malts are more like the malts in a really good double-ipa west coast style and the hops are trying but failing to build on that. So i'm a bit in-between with this one.. it's going in the right direction, but something is not quite as it should be. I think this recipe could be a good starting point for a really good double IPA.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours an almost clear amber with a small, rough, off-white head. Dusty, greasy old hops in the nose. Rich, malty body, oddly spicy or even herbal. Some malty sweetness before quite some finishing bittering hops. 150524

Very nice and clean us red alw ish aroma. High on nutty malts as well as bitter ud hops. Reminds me of barley qine. Good stuff Flavor is nutty, honey, malty bitterness, the yell8w fruity bitterness sometimes found in tripie,hay, A bit unbalanced co.pared to aroma, basically the flavor is just a somewhat messy, brutal strong ale. Aroma was super good though. Flavor too mich honey and bitter nuts and hay.
