Jul 17, 2009 I shared a bottle of this with BeerBaron617 this evening. I didn’t really have any expectations, as Brooklyn has yet to wow me with a tasty beverage. It poured a nice clear light amber color with a tight off-white head. It has a nice sweet hoppy aroma that is a bit different from typical American craft brewed IPA’s. It tastes a bit different from the IPA’s I am accustomed to, a bit more malty, a bit sweeter, but it still has that bitter taste to it. Overall it’s a pretty tasty beverage, but I think i’ll try some other Brooklyn’s before trying this again.

Jul 17, 2009 bottle, Dankeschön Allen! Clear amber colour, small and quickly diminishing white head. Fruity hop aroma that is quite promising. Full-bodies, intensively malty with hints of roasted malts, herbs and caramel. There are some lovely citrusy hop flavours present, but they seem to be killed by a overpowering alcohol flavour. What a pity, I would love to have enjoyed the hops more in the beer.

Jul 6, 2009 Bottle, Rehills, Newcastle. Heavily floral aroma, especially of elderflower. Sharp bitterness that gradually becomes fruity, with grapefruit the most apparent flavour. Can be slightly vineous and quite alcoholic tasting. Wouldn’t class this too much as an English IPA....

Jul 2, 2009 Thanks Joe McPhee. Pours a clear amber, modest off white head, essentially no lace. Aroma is hoppy, musty, with a bit of caramel, overall muted. Flavor has a lot of hops-grapefruit bitterness, but less in terms of hops aromatics. Malt backbone is a bit husky. Well-balanced, but with a metallic edge. Thin to medium body, juicy refreshing mouthfeel.

Jul 1, 2009 Pours nice hazy color with a thin white head. Smells of bitter hops and earth. The malt background is a little too inconspicuous and the mouthfeel is rather thin. The flavor is nicely bitter with a sweet citrus hint kick in the finish.
