omhper (10456), Stockholm, Sweden May 12, 2008 Bottled. Clear amber with firm, creamy head. Sweaty grapefruity hop aroma with some hay. medium bodied with clean mouthfeel. Crystal malt plays a very significant part. It’s a bit sugary and edgy. A fair amount of hops - but in too reasonable amounts to make it one of those hp knockouts. The clean nd hard malt character is a solid foundation, but nothing that makes it standout. Finishes with long grapefruity bitterness. A solid beer where all bits and pieces are there, but has nothing to make me want to pick this particular IPA in a big crowd.
KimJohansen (3351), Copenhagen V, Denmark Sep 7, 2008 Clear deep golden with tiny off white head. Sweet and hoppy aroma with caramel notes. Hoppy flavor with caramel, grapefruit and floral notes. Ends solid bitter. Linnet (14), , Sweden Sep 6, 2008 Aroma of malt, lemon, parfume. Flavour, dry, honeylike, and biterness towards the end. Thomas_E (5037), Copenhagen, Denmark Sep 4, 2008 Amber colour with a white head. Hoppy fruity aroma with a note of straw. Hoppy fruity and light grassy flavor.
zappafan99 (322), Rock Hill, South Carolina, USA Aug 30, 2008 Taste 8/8 Bottle(best by11/8). 4th variety of beer by this brewer today , they all taste like bitters. Looks: Copper body,thin yeasty head. Aroma: Biscuit yeast. Taste: Like a mild and bland bitter with a little body. zebracakes (981), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours Hazy golden orange, off white head. Aroma is malted hoppy graham crackers. I guess this one could go either way at this point. The aroma is not crisp and citrusy so it leads me to believe that there could be peat on the horizon.
Flavor is bitter and malty, some wet bog and metal going on here. This isn’t super peaty, but I’m not giving my stamp of approval. So there ;)
