Commercial Description:
Mikkeller’s tribute to the green gold.

Mikkeller er klar med endnu en IPA, der ikke er bange for at leve op til navnet. Humlen er som den skal være: aromatisk, amerikansk og aggressiv, så man ikke er i tvivl om hvad man nyder. For nyde er hvad Green Gold ligger op til. Karamelmaltens sødme og fylde danner en lækker bund, der rammer smagsløgene, inden humleeksplosionen sætter ind, og som rydder op igen, og balancerer det samlede indtryk, så man kun har lyst til én ting, nemlig endnu en tår. De lækre amerikanske humler simcoe, amarillo og cascade giver masser af citrusnoter, men kæler også for din tunge med fersken og grannuancer samt masser af friskhed.

Apperance: Golden red with a creamy lace that sticks to the glass. Aroma: Toffee, Exotic fruits, Citrus, Pine Flavor: Resin, Biscuits, Grapefruit, Caramel, Peach. Palete: Smooth but yet quite simple with a nice kick of hops at the end. Low carbonation. The aroma from this beer made me all happy inside. The taste is not up to pair with the aroma but still damn good. I like!

66cl bottle. A hazy amber beer with a big, creamy and persistent white head. The aroma is very hoppy, yet not as powerful as expected, but nice. There are notes of tropical fruits, citric fruits, grass and flowers. Some caramel underneath the hops. The flavour is very hoppy too, with all the notes expected after the aroma and a nice crispiness. Medium body (or maybe something more), average/lively carbonation, long dry finish with medium to heavy bitterness from the American hops. Very satisfying.

Aroma has some bold hops, a decent malt following, colour of a tequila sunrise, a small off-white head. Taste begins with orangey hops, a pleasing malt come along too. Balanced, medium bodied, bitter and dry. Very nice example.

660ml bottle purchased at the one and only Ølbutikken in Copenhagen in August last year and enjoyed at home on a Friday eve for an hour or so. A frothy, mostly lasting off-white head supported by fair lacing rests on a slightly hazy, deep orange body. Smooth hoppy to the nose with spruce notes. The flavour is a composition of spicy hops and orange shells layered with moderate malty sweetness and ending with lingering bitterness. Soft mouthful. A tasty sipper, but I must admit that I had expected more. Some living refreshment is missing. But maybe I’m far too pampered with the great brews from Mikkeller (15.02.2008).

this is one of my favourite danish brews, it has all that an ipa should have: hops hops and hops.. beautiful to behold an easy on the tounge, but not too easy if you know what i mean.

This one poured a golden color with a thin white head that dissipated quickly. The aroma is of citrus fruits, floral hops, toasted grains and spices. The sweet malts show themselves first followed with the floral and piney hops. There is a good amount of spices in there as well. This one is medium bodied that was easy drinking that had a crisp, dry finish to it. This was an interesting take on this style.

Very pleasant aroma of resinous hops, pine needles and citrus.Cloudy orangey amber pour with a thin white head. Solid flavor of resinous hops with pine needles, citrus, malt and a bitter finish. The body is light to medium with an oily texture and a medium to lively carbonation.
