Commercial Description:
1820 började England exportera ett speciellt öl till Indien. Dett kallades för India Ale. För att klara den långa transporten var ölet kraftig humlat. Nils Oscar India Ale. är en modern tolkning av klassisk India Ale. Ölet baseras på humlesorten Amarillo, som tydligt markerar sin närvaro i ölet. Aromen har drag af tropiska frukter och citrus. Nils Oscar India Ale är överjäst på pilsner-, münchener- och karamellmalt. Passa till nästan all mat, mer är givetvis utsökt även på egen hand.

330ml bottle, purple label. Pours orange-copper, off-white head. Happy, hop aroma. Spice and citrus. Flavor has a sugary, sweet malt. Followed by a strong hop bitterness. Sharp IPA character that will fix that hop craving! Love those Amarillo...

(Bottle on 2008-02-04) Light amber. White medium head. Pleasant hoppy nose. Nice lasting bitterness from hops in taste. Fruity.

Pours from the bottle to a nice amber color with medium thick off-white head that lingers well and leaves okay lacing. Kind of disappointing for an IPA in that, while there was the expected citrusy, hops in the nose and mouth, and a bitter palate, all were much more muted than in most IPAs. Not bad, just needed to accentuate all the above for me to rate any higher as an IPA.

0,33l bottle. Amber color with modest head. Fruits and hops in the aroma, flavor includes malts (perhaps a touch of smoke), hops, citrus and fruits. A solid beer, lacking in body though.

Bottle. Pours copper with good lasting head. Hoppy aroma with notes of caramel and fruits. Flavour is nicely hopped with notes of caraway, fresh fruit, grass and citrus. Great beer!

Clear bronze. Insignificant foam. Toasted cereal grains and caramel with a little bit of hops. Medium body, balanced carbonation, easy to drink. Too plain. Where are the hops?

Good malty with hops balanced aroma. Breadlike qualities. Clear golden amber with frothy head. Light hoppy flavor with bitter haylike finish. Light citrus, some honey. Mild thin palate. Dryish duration. Mild carbonation. Not bad.

bottle from pizza port. Clear golden amber with a fizzy white head. Caramel, cereal, fruity aroma. Bright palate. Crisp citrus taste, mildly soapy unfortunately, with earhty hops to the finish.
