Commercial Description:
A copper colored top fermented beer, brewed with 3 English hops, that gives the spicy flavor. With a lovely aroma of flowers and a hint of spring.

IPA "India Pale Ale" originates around 1790, when India was an English colony. To make it possible for the beer to travel that far - it was added a lot of hops and brewed to a higher gravity, which both increased the life of the beer.
Our "Pearl of India" is strongly inspired of the original IPA, but shaped to fit the Danish palate.

A hazy orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is hoppy and flowery. The flavor is sweet and very spicy and flowery - my guess is amongst others Goldings hops. The end is dry dusty combined with some notes of honey. As the label says it is very much inspired by the British IPA style - though it lacks alcohol to really match the style. I’m not impressed.

Bottled. Hazy pale amber, minimal head. Resiny grapefruit hops dominate the aroma. Medium bodied with wuite hard mouthfeel. Lightly smokey with bitter resiny finish.

(Bottle 50 cl) Slightly hazy amber golden with a creamy, off-white head leaving some lacework. Hoppy, citric nose. Medium body, very limited malty feel, extremely dry and leathery with an astringent and raw, chemically bitter finish. This has some good streaks, but needs a lot of refinement. 270207

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, big off-white head. Aroma is fruity hops, leather, yeast and grass. Flavour is fruity hops, yeast and a huge peak of leatheryness. Aftertaste is fruity and leathery.
