Commercial Description:
Ready to buck convention? We took the traditional IPA, originally shipped from Englad to India in the 1700s, and made it bolder and more flavorful - American style. We've added new varieties of highly aromatic American hops to create a distinctive bitterness profile and an incredible hop character. Hop on, hold tight, and enjoy the ride!

Bottled: I could sit here and try to explain the complexities of the aromas and the flavours but it is much easier to put it this way: The hoppines is just insane!!! and I love it!!

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear deep golden with a dense, off-white head leaving some lacework. Lovely peachy hop aroma. Medium body with lightly sweet caramel and fruit. Ends with a dry hop bite. A very clean and harmonious IPA. 200908

On tap. Pours a light gold color. Smells of pine and citrus. Tastes of grapefruit and pine. Very well balanced.

Thanks to BeerandBlues2 for hooking me up with this... Awsome minty pine aroma with a touch of fruit (banana maybe). Very mild fruity hoppyness. Light amber in color. Overall, this is a damn good IPA.

I love this beer. I am becoming quite a hop head, but this is a very balanced beer. It is strong, but so drinkable. It is on the pricey side, but so worth it.

Pour is a light, golden copper with a thick white head that fades to lacing. A beautiful floral hop aroma. Also some fruity aromas that blend nicely. A strange flavor...fruity with floral hops. Has a malty balancer. Palate is bitter but has a smooth, creaminess and a medium body. A very decent IPA.

Medium sized beige head with fair retention and a surprising amount of sticky patchy lace. Lightly hazy gold colored ale. Nose, lightly citrusy and piney with some light malt notes. Body is medium, lightly oily and resiny, soft carbonation. Decent fruity flavors, some apricot and peach along with notes of citrusy hops and a mild graininess backing them up. Lightly sweet caramelly notes, dried fruits and an understated hop bitterness that seems to work well with this brew. Decent IPA i,d say. Props to beersandblues2 for the bottle.
