Mikkeller All Others Pale

Mikkeller
Brewed at Ørbæk Bryggeri
Style: American Pale Ale
Copenhagen V, Denmark

Bottle - Mondial de la Bière, Montréal. Nice copper body with average off-white foamy head. Sharp hoppy aroma with fruity and caramel hints. Taste carries grapefruit notes and ends with a long, robust bitter finish. Very good Pale Ale.

Bottle, Mondiale 09, thanks Josh. Unique hop aroma - -not spicy, not sweet, nor citrusy, sort of a combo. Orange, small white head. Love the taste - same odd hop combo + throw in a malt combo I have never encountered before and you have one unique pale ale. Nutty, woody, earthy too. I quite enjoyed it.

22oz bottle. Orange/copper color. Wonderful hop aroma. Hints of a spicy green, like cabbage...no, bok choy! Tastes like green vegetables. Finishes with a super nice bitterness. Yum, pass the summer rolls... 03 may 08.

Appearance: very fine haze , light carbonation , mid light fizzy top.3-
Nose: elegant , welcoming rich hop profile. Good sweet malt character. Rich and full aroma of upper end pale ales
Flavor/Palate : Cereal , caramel sweetness as bottom. Chewy textures with fresh citric hops , hint of peach. Very clean , detailed work . Sensible hop sided brew.

The bottle looks really great, the beer in the glass also. Starts a bit alcoholic, modest woody, a bit spicy. Finish more woody, complex, also a bit earthy. Very interesting. Antother great Mikkeller-beer!

Bu au Mondial 2009, le 4 juin (#8). Rousse cuivrée, petit collet. Arome d’houblon fusionné avec de l’avoine malté. Goût légèrement houblonné, un peu de céréal malté, mais l’amerturme camoufle tout. J’aime ça que ça goût autre que l’amerturme!

1pint .9oz bottle. Pours a crystal clear, orangish red body with a finger-width, foamy, off-white head that bubbles away quickly and leaves lots of lacing on the surface with some moderate sticky lacing on the glass. Aroma is heavily sweet, but has lots of aromatic floral hops as well. The big and sweet caramels have lots of apricots, berries, and melons protruding while the initial floral hops seem to give way to more of a dull, earthy bitterness with some citrus and pine. Flavor is quite interesting. Starts out quite sour with a bit of metallic grapefruit. Yields to a very bitter orange peel and sweet caramel that has a bit of a fruitcake bready taste. Has more of the melons and berries from the aroma before finishing with a spicy and herbal bitterness that dries relatively quick and leaves a light puckering sour flavor. Lingers with some heavier earth as well as citrus, melon, and sweet caramel. Palate is medium to full bodied and chewy. Overall, an interesting "pale ale." There are a lot of different things going on here, but it just doesn’t seem to rub me the right way. It seems to be in balance one second and then seems out of balance the next. Big time flavor, but something seems off, making it difficult for me to set this apart from the rest.

D’une couleur orangée trouble, cette bière se déguste faciilement. Bien balancée entre malt et houblon, elle est douce en bouche et a unarrière goût légèrement alcoolisé.
