COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Som de fleste kendere af Amager øl efterhånden nok har erfaret, så kan vi her på det lille bryggeri godt lide at skrue lidt ekstra op for gashåndtaget og blande lidt ekstra i tanken for maksimal effekt. Sådan brygger vi øl, for vi synes, det er sjovest at udforme konformiteten og udfordre alle sanser. Med Amager Nitro vedkender vi os igen, at vi ikke er andet end store drenge, der elsker at lege med humle. IPA er en klar favoritstil, og i denne har vi bøffet alt op og lavet en Double IPA (DIPA) efter amerikansk forbillede. Med Northern Brewer, Columbus, Centenniel, Cascade og Amarillo i karret garanterer vi, at ingen humlehoveder vil gå forgæves.

omhper (15956) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - SEP 18, 2010
Bottled. Hazy amber, creamy head. Massive hop aroma with pears, pineapple and lychee. Sweet and full bodied, soapy and perfumy. Warming alcohol, but malt and alcohol is only to back up the massive hops. From the tropical fruit aroma it quickly goes over perfume to huge inky bitterness. A beer that requires all your attention. Makes no attempt to be balanced, it’s all for the hop heads.

Good hoppy, sweaty aroma. Good body, malty, with fruity hops, quite resiny, with bitter oranges; the alcohol warms the mouth. Very good, but also aggressive
