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. Golden color with a white head. Hops, grass and light soap aroma. Malty body with a light caramel and fruit sweetness. Flowery bitterness on the palate.

Bottle. A clear yellow-brown beer with a fading white head. A hoppy and very strong aroma. Not that very bitter, being an IPA, but the bitterness hangs on in the palate. A bit sweet taste not that common in IPAs. Is a good and decent beer for a quicky. Refreshing.

Draught at Warehouse 68 - Stockholm June ’07. Stong bitter taste for being rather thin in body and alcohol content. Flavor lingers on the tongue nicely. But this is not the big IPA I’m used to out here - more like a pale ale to me. Overall a nice beer.

Bottle. Pours a nice clear orange-amber colour with an average bubbly creamish beige fairly lasting head leaving a fair lacing. Fresh heavy aroma of hops with fruits and some pine and pleasant sweetness. The flavour is fresh with a good long fruity hoppiness, some spices, pleasant soft sweetness with crispy citrus. Long lasting dry and bitter hoppy finish. Good but a bit thin though campared to what I suspected from an IPA from this brewery.

A disappointment compared to the other beers I have tasted from this brewery. Tame and sweet and too much caramel.

Bottle. Pours a amber body with no head. Aroma is caramell and fruity. Flavor is very hoppy. som small notes of blackberry. Its spicy and lots of caramell malt. The finish is more flowery almost like perfume, wich in this case is not wrong.Different acidic berries Palate is fizza and really dry, acidic.

(Draught at Glenfiddich Warehouse No 68, 25 May 2007) Dark amber colour with firm, frothy head, slowly leaving lots of lacing. Fruity, slightly roasted nose with notes of blood oranges, grapefruit, chocolate, toffee and apricots. Malty taste with fruity notes of orange peel and pink grapefruit, some chocolate and caramel. Nice underlying hop character all the way through to a fruity, bitter finish. Well balanced. This one has actually become better and better since the release in autumn 2005. Really good beer.
