Shorts Good Feller Imperial IPA

Bottle. [Drikkeriget Grand Shorts Imperial Series tasting, thanks to Jeppe for another great session] Average creamy off-white head that mostly lasted. Spare display of lacework. Light cloudy amber color. Aroma of grapefruit, chew peach, floral, grassy, citrus. Over the palate came some counter malty – caramel notes. Full bodied with a soft carbonation and mild alcoholic very dry texture. Heavy bitter hoppy flavor with some counter sweetness. Lingering bitter dry hoppy finish.

Bottle: I really enjoyed this IPA. Pours light brown with a fuzzy head. Heavy aroma of hops and citrus. Quite drinkable - the hops are not overpowering, but always in your face.

The Dan Journal #222. Tasted 8/7/08. 750ml bottle. Batch 297. Brewed 4/9/07. Bottled 5/15/07. #431/798. Wow, lotta information on the bottle. Hazy with a dark amber hue. Bone white moldy head. Big hoppy aromas with hints of honey. Resinous. Full bodied with a big alcohol note. Lotta citrus and a great rolling palate. Sticky hoppy finish. Solid! Thanks Keir.

Pours a nice cloudy orange color with an off white head. Aroma is some citrus hops and some balancing sweet malts. Flavor is also lots of citrus hops, but it seems that some have disipated into the malt. I wish i would have tried this sooner, but still decent.

Cloudy amber/light brown body with a fine light-brown lasting head. The nose is really hoppy and a bit sulphurous. The taste is full of hops and yeasts - not much complexity. The finish is dry and bitter and in the very end there is a deep bitterness deep down the throat - Linda Lovelace go home!!! The palate is relative light and makes it more drinkable compared to many of its IPA-brothers that makes you look like a chickens ass because of the dry bitterness from the extreme hops
