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.

Celebrating rating #8000. Bottled. A dark amber beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is powerful of fresh hops - which I just love, it has notes of grapefruit, caramel, hay, and more. The flavor is sweet at first with notes of caramel, and a bit weak on the body, but then the hops gain in strength with notes of grass, grapefruit, lemon, pine and straw, and with the hops gaining strength the body also picks up, so it finishes off being quite powerful - the alcohol is not tasted, but felt, and the combination of alcohol and fresh hops stays in the mouth forever. Now this is a beer according to my head. I’ve also had it draft - and must admit that the times I’ve had it bottled I’ve liked it better than on draft - so far I’ve had it twice from draft and twice from bottle.

(On tap) Clear, amber golden with a creamy, off-white head. Fat aroma with strong citric notes. Quite full-bodied with lots of malt and citrus and a distinct bitterness. I’m afraid there’s a vague fustyness buried underneath - probably from the tap. 120507

66 cL bottle. Pours orange with light brown head. Aroma is bitter, caramelly and fruity hops. Aroma is first a touch of bitterness and fruityness from the aroma hops followed by a soft caramel maltyness. Ends very bitter. Well balanced - but reminds me too much of Raasted Imperial Stout - seems too inspired by that to me. If there would be an originality score it wouldn’t be rated high. But damn this is a good beer!

Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Bronze colour, clear, small head. Grapefruity hop aroma. Medium sweet with biscuity malt undernreath a sea of aromatic hops. There’s lychee, grapefruit, canteloupe and who knows what. Lingering bitter finish. A tasty IPA US West Coast style.

Draught @ Københavnske Øldage 2007 in Copenhagen. Hazy light amber color with a average fizzy off-white head. Aroma is moderate to heavy hoppy sweet, caramel, grapefruty. Initial flavor is moderate sweet and heavy bitter, finish flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. Very nice ;o))

Draught at KØ07. Hazy dark copper colour. Very good hop aroma. The flavour is also quite hoppy, and nicely so. A good, solid IPA which is also well-balanced.

Bottled. Amber colour, big white head. Aroma is big flowery hops. Flavour is flowery hops along with big sweetness and some nutty hints. A very pleasant mix indeed, but not exactly what I waited from it.

Bottle. Cloudy orange coloured with an off white head. Aroma of caramel, hops. pine needles with flowery notes. The flavour starts with some caramelic malty sweetness but soon gets very hoppy with notes of pine needles. Dry hoppy finish.
