Commercial Description:
ØLFABRIKKEN COLUMBUS PALE ALE is a tribute to the American Columbus hop, which we love so much at Ølfabrikken. The beer presents itself with astonishing pungent aroma of pine and grapefruit, which is coming back in the flavor, balanced by sweetness from British caramel-malt. The aftertaste is long and dry and characterized by hops bitterness. Serve it with creole food such as blackened fish and dirty rice with melted butter, homemade chili/raisin/apple chutney. Ølfabrikken Columbus Pale Ale is of course unfiltered, unpasteurized like all Ølfabrikken beers.

The aroma is nice and hoppy with caramel malt. The appearance is deep amber with a tan head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. There is nothing special about this beer but it’s good.

Nice great brew with a wonderful look of hazy amber with beige head. Notes of citrus, caramel, flowers, "fat brown" bitterness ending up in a great bitterness. Quite a thirstquencher.

Mostly clear amber color with a thin white head. Moderate grassy hop aroma with an earthy and mildly sweet malt background. A bit unexciting on the palate, but the hop and malt balance is nice, well on the hop side for a pale. Drinkable and balanced.

Deep amber (almost brown) color with slightly off-white head. Very refreshing hoppy/pine aroma. Nice moderately hoppy flavor. Finished a little bitter. Very drinkable.

Clear light amber pour topped by a small off-white head. Well defined, aromatic, earthy hops are supported by a solid malt base with beefy crystals that give it a firm medium body. The carbonation felt a bit low though and this rendered the crystals quite sticky while the hops had faded away a bit in mouth. Might only be a freshness issue, but this particular sample did not please me as much as beers from this brewery usually do.
