3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Glouglouburp (5562) - Montreal, Quebec, - JAN 9, 2009<b>In short: </b>A sweet and floral IPA. Decent.
<b>How: </b>Bottle 330ml, consumed very fresh (8 months before best-before date)
<b>The look: </b>Almost clear golden yellow body topped by a short lived white head
<b>In long: </b>The floral nose mixes fruity elements (grapefruits), garden flowers a little perfuny note. Attack is rather sweet but the finish is quite dry. With its crunchy sweetness and its hopping the beer tastes like eating baklavas, dried tropical fruits and garden flowers at the same time. The carbonation is very soft, too soft actually, I didn’t car for the foamy mouthfeel. Not a bad beer but I was tired of it after a single small bottle. This punk doesn’t rock.

Mild for style, but still very nice. Very hazy with sticky white head. Aroma is lemon grass. Taste follows nose with a mild bitter start that fades quickly. This is a gateway ipa. Something that could get a newbie on the road to more robust ipas.

Bottle. very refreshing beer, with a good aroma, taste is weak, not as the Punk IPA that I drunk some years ago. Can it be that they have changed the hops?

For a ’punk’ IPA, this is more Busted than Sex Pistols. Mild citrus and grassy aroma, nowhere near as bitter as expecting. Feels like this had been toned down for the supermarkets.

3.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Abijen (206) - NETHERLANDS - APR 13, 2013
A 5.6% bottle.
Pours a nice golden pale beer. Good head. The smell is great. Again. Grapefruit, orange.
The taste is nice. Good hoppy tast. It tast a lot like the 5am saint.
The palate is average. Good carbo, thin body, sticky texture.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 tiong (2242) - Espoo, FINLAND - APR 9, 2013
Originally rated on 20.11.2009. 330ml bottle from Alko? Slightly unbalanced IPA with notes of berries. Not as good as the new one.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Silvan7 (134) - Samarate, ITALY - APR 5, 2013
Bottle @ home. Una IPA eretica! I luppoli sono si molto intensi, ma l’alcool e il malto li nascondono sino all’arrivo dell’aftertaste. non è molto alcolica, ma alla cieca avrei detto almeno 8 gradi...in generale è piacevole e profuma di luppolo, frutti a esotici (lychees , maracuja?). Non è una birra speciale, ma molto buona. la consiglierei.

Draft - Grassy and citrus hops with grains. Cloudy yellow with a thin but rich head. Lemony, bitter and soapy. Just not good for me, which is too bad considering I love Hardcore.

Pours a clear amber colour with a medium white head. Aromas are citrus, pine and -of course- a lot of hops. Well balanced, with a great bitterness. But not as complex as the Hardcore IPA by Brewdog !
