Greene King IPA (Cask)

Brewed by Greene King
Style: Bitter
Bury St. Edmunds, England

[Cask at Charlies Bar, Copenhagen] An amber beer with a nice beige head. The aroma is very light with notes of caramel - too light for my liking. The flavor is roasted toffeish on a mineral background, and with a dry rather bitter end. The body is somewhat thin.

From cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Mild fruity hops and malt aroma. Flavour is dry and bitter with a distinct dry malt base and a mild fruity accent. Dry and bitter. Ends this way with a mild classic pilsner bitterness.

Sampled cask conditioned at Cloister, Edinburgh. Dark amber. Hay aroma. Medium body, really sweet. Fruity with only slight bitterness. One-dimensional.

Cask, Handpump @ .... . Golden with a pretty white creamy head. A strong caramal malt aroma. Fruity slightly bitter finish.

Cask. Nicely hoppy aroma, dry hopped? Dark copper colour. Small creamy head. A little thin and watery flavour, but nicely hopped. Thin body. A bit like hop water.

Casked. Dark amberish brown colour, small white head, which lasts for a good while. Malts and some grass in aroma. Flavour is a bit better with some bitterish notes added to the malts and grass. A rather thin beer.

Cask. Clear orange coloured with a small off white head. Aroma of malts and fruits with hoppy notes. Fruity flavour with notes of malts and hops.

Cask Conditioned at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö
Beautiful amber color; frothy head. Delicate aroma, earthy hops. Very light body (too much, indeed), a bit metallic flavor, but also some light malt, some dry toffee and a reasonable hopping. Would be ok if not so weak.
