Commercial Description:
Esta cerveja de sabor robusto e nome complicado é uma homenagem da Colorado aos antigos estilos de cerveja há muito esquecidos por conta da massificação dos meios de produção e dos padrões de consumo de nossa época. Nossa receita é baseada numa antiga receita inglesa de cerveja, que nos tempos do Império Britânico era enviada a Índia para consumo e deleite dos seus cidadões e soldados expatriados. O imenso amargor e o alto teor alcoólico desta bebida favoreciam a sua conservação durante a longa viagem marítima entre a Inglaterra e a Índia. Nossa IPA mereceu do maior crítico inglês de bebidas malteadas Sir Michael Jackson (homônimo do cantor) três estrelas no seu Pocket Beer Guide conhecido como o Guia Michelin das cervejas.

Bottle: Drank at La Tortula. Probaly the best brazilian beer so far. Taste is balanced, hops and citrus with a good ale base. Definately a session beer and an inmediate favorite.

Cerveja diferenciada brasileira. Com boas características. Coloração caramelo e espuma ambar - sempre presente. Cheiro adocicado, bom. Frisante, e amarga. Forte e densa. Precisa ser novamente degustada.

Appearance: orange clear color. Great head, with good adherence at glass, ivory color, some rocky, dense and very lasting. Aroma: floral-hoppy smells mainly, some citric and an aromatic fruitiness very nice similar to oranges, tangerines, pears and apricots. Pale malts and slight fresh yeast notes. Slightly mentholated, eucalyptus and mint’s touches from hops. Flavor: pale malts and some caramel malts start; with light sweetness, buttery and greasy ephemeral touches. Intensive and persistent hoppyness, with medium dryness and floral-herbal touch similar to chamomile. Ripe-sweet fruitiness like pears, red apples and peaches; as well a slight citric-fruitiness similar to tangerines and peel-oranges. A little reminiscence of honey. Hoppy final with metallic note. Aftertaste similar to pink-grapefruits. Palate: medium body and silky texture. Low carbonated. Nice dry-hoppyness, in noose and mouth, some complex and enough fruity. Refreshing and good brazilian beer.
