COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brooklyn East India Pale Ale, originally a summer seasonal, has been getting raves since becoming a year round offering in 1996. Garrett Oliver, a student of English brewing and beer history, uses English malts and hops to brew his EIPA in the classic, heavily-hopped style of the 19th century beers created for British soldiers serving in India.

Pours a gold color with a two finger white head. Aroma of bread yeast, cereal, and grains. An excellent lightness on the pallet considering the 6.9 % abv. A bit of citrus hop in the finish would be nice but a nice eipa nonetheless. Great bitterness that lingers.

Veldig godt øl. fin aroma. Gylden brun på farge. lett drukket og friskt på smak med en litt syrlig ettersmak.

CPH2200 (69) - DENMARK - MAY 30, 2013
355ml bottle. a spicy ipa with decent hops bitternes and a very dry finish. Balanced but maybe a bit too boring.

J_pac (4) - Cork, IRELAND - MAY 28, 2013 does not count
Strong, almost grassy aroma. Amber-gold appearance with a pale foamy head. No lacing. Solid hoppy taste with a bit of a sharp edge and lingering woody bitterness on the palate. A dependable IPA.

Dredd (639) - Bentleigh, AUSTRALIA - MAY 21, 2013
Good aroma, Amber body thin white head. Initial flavor is almost scotch ale like with dark sugars and stone fruit. Medium finish, good but not that memorable.

TarcisioVasco (131) - Ribeirão Preto (SP)., BRAZIL - MAY 20, 2013
Mavavilhosa IPA nova iorquina, uma marcante presença de lúpulos florais, corpo e sabores dos maltes gerando complexidade, muito agradável, leve, equilibrada, nada extrema.

Unm4rk3d (41) - Bowen Hills, AUSTRALIA - MAY 18, 2013
A nice slight fruity aroma. Fruit sensation through out, it will linger while you drink it. I quite nice.

hopbomber (119) - Manchester, Greater Manchester, ENGLAND - MAY 12, 2013
Bland low hop profile, reminds me of an American EPA or a carbonated real ale. Very average low citrus and vague pine notes from a brewery that produces just 2 decent beers.

MotherBrother (555) - Aalborg, DENMARK - MAY 11, 2013
Tap @ the JB. Pour like Apple juice, with a small white slightly fluffy head. Aroma of faint juicy hops, some booze, slight grass. The taste is a little bitter, with some faint juicy sweetness. Average body, with a slightly fizzy carb.

Color: clear amber beer, with small carbonization and small white foam. Smell: hops, caramel, spices, wheat. Taste: strong hops but not persistent. Caramel. Aftertaste: wet bitterness.
