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.

Bottle. Poured a medium and clear orange color with a large sized off whtie head. Nice lacing left on the glass. Aromas of citrus, yeasty, a little soapy, and light caramel. Tastes of caramel and citrus. Tastes were on the weaker and somewhat watery side. Very light bitter finish. I would have guessed this was an Amber ale vs. an IPA.

Bottled. A lightly hazy and pale orange beer with a thin disappearing white head. The aroma is dominated by hops with orange and grapefruit. The flavour has very light notes of caramel and is very hoppy with again orange and grapefruit notes. Some malt sweetness but the finish is really bitter and persistent. Light to medium body, average carbonation, long dry finish. A tasty brew, quenching.

Bottle from Capone’s. Medium copper pour with 1-finger off-white head. Aroma is citrus, funky yeast, hops, bready caramel malt. tastes caramel malty, crisp and hoppy, slightly sweet, but stays crisp. A unique interpretation of this style.

Beautiful, clear amber with a creamy, white head leaving laces. Aroma is hop and light roasted caramel. Hoppy flavor with malt and citrus, mostly pine-apple. Medium body and a nice lingering bitterness.

Clear look with a fine white head. Pretty standart for an IPA, floral hops and a smooth toffee malt character. Nice bitterness at first, but they seem to faint way too fast. Very enjoyable and drinkable overall

Coppery colored, medium sized yellow head. Bitter and hopped aroma with some soapy and perfumy notes, mild toffee and lemon also there. Medium bodied. Flavor is definitely Nils Oscar: dry and bitingly hopped with some toffee and flowery-fruits, aftertaste dries even more with some metallic note. Expected more of this, too dry and biting flavored, and not very traditional IPA for my taste.
