Commercial Description:
Danish: Hornbeer Imperial IPA er en lidt kraftigere sag, end almindelige IPA. Der er brugt lidt mere af det hele. Oprindelig var IPA'erne beregnet for de engelske søfolk, der skulle rejse den lange vej til Indien. Det er 200 år siden. For at øllet skulle holde sig friskt, blev det brygget med høj alkoholprocent og med høj bitterhed fra humlen. Vi er så gået en tand videre. Har brugt lidt mere malt, lidt mere humle. Prøv Hornbeer Imperial IPA til ristet rugbrød med gorgonzola eller andre markante, bløde oste. IPA'ens bitterhed sammen med ostens skarpe smag passer fantastisk sammen.

Tap @ Aarhus beerfestival 2008. Aroma is strong hoppy: grapefruit and pines. Hazy, orange coloured beer with an off-white head. Taste is bitter, fresh, dry. Has orange, grapefruit and pine. Good balance.

Cloudy amber colour with an off white head. Malty, sweet aroma with hoppy piney and fruity notes. Malty, light caramel sweet flavor with a balanced hoppy piney note.

Botella, thanks to thewolf. Deep hazy orange colour. Very hoppy and fruity pine sweet aroma. Quite good a mouthfeel. Great ripe fruity bitter hoppy flavour with pine, caramel and a little alcohol.

Bottle, bought @ Kolding Vinhandel.
Pours deep brown with a small, frothy, off-white head. Okay duration. Aroma is quite sweet, lots of fruity hops, pine and a good dose of caramel. Fine, creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is well hoppy, good cascade, but there really is a lot of caramel. Long, lingering, dry and bitter aftertaste. Good.
