COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bridge Road Brewers have created their own take on a more traditional beer style - India Pale Ale, originally a heavily hopped beer developed for the long haul from England to India by boat. Fresh hops were added to the barrel and the alcohol was bolstered to ensure the beer went the distance on the high seas. Bling, is a huge beer, with all the bells and whistles. This ale is armed to the teeth with hops and studded with 24 carrot modified malts. At Bridge Road we’ve gone all out to make an IPA that screams hops and malt but still keeps balance in mind. Try matching this beer it with anything spicy or enjoy this malt and hop mouth full on its own. We love it, and hope you can too.

Grumbo (19923) - Ipswich, Suffolk, ENGLAND - OCT 24, 2022
UPDATED: OCT 24, 2022 24/10/2022. Schooner at Pyrmont Bridge Hotel, Sydney. Pours hazy pale orange gold with a small frothy white head. Aroma of orange, mango, citrus, pineapple, grapefruit, husky edge. Medium sweetness and light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, a little watery, gently fizzy. Solid IPA.

sm89walt (2773) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - MAR 6, 2020
UPDATED: MAR 6, 2020 355ml can. Poured a clear burnt copper with a small yet lasting creamy beige head. Aromas of roasted malts, grilled nuts, chocolate, toffee intertwined with zesty, juicy hops - citrus and stone fruits. A little brown sugar sweetness. Mid-weight, medium carbonation and a moderate length and intensity malt x hop bitterness to finish. Like an ESB with a greater hop bill. Nice.

UPDATED: NOV 25, 2019 330ml bottle - Pours a light hazy orange amber colour with a small foamy beige head. Aroma is caramel malts with marmalade and pine hop notes. Moderately sweet malt base, citrus and marmalade flavours with a citrus and pine hop bitterness in the finish.

goodkarma (104) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - MAR 26, 2019
UPDATED: MAR 26, 2019 A more English style IPA that is unlike so many beers on the market in Australia.

the_beergery (924) - - FEB 26, 2019
UPDATED: FEB 27, 2019 330 ml bottle at the bar at FOMO at Golden Mile. This brew was bottled a year ago, but doesn't seem to have faded much. Appearance is a cloudy amber brown, with plenty of sediment and topped with a finger of white and persistent froth. Aroma is muted, malty, biscuity, some light fruity hops which come across as melons, peaches and lychees. Taste is malty sweet, caramel, malts, and a distinct absence of fruits or pine or bitter (may have faded over the year since bottling). Medium bodied, average carbonation. Overall, wouldn't be out of place as an ESB, or an amber or a brown ale, but is an unlikely IPA.

3.5
TimE (8459) - Tokyo, JAPAN - DEC 22, 2018
UPDATED: DEC 22, 2018 Deep amber color. Big perfumy nose, that is slightly tart dried apricot and cotton candy. Good malt presence with apricots and cherries. Much more of a man amber than an ipa.

Certainly doesn’t overstate anything this one. Quite understated yet still flavoursome. Ask it how it is on a 40 degree day: but warm. The neighbour’s house party at 3am? A little late. Drive in a Ferrari: not slow. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
