Dugges bollox ipa. 500ml bottle once again shared by timo... Pours a
smewhat hazy lighter copper hue with a frothy white head... Aroma is
grassy with a touch of pine and spruce. Milder degree of malt in the
background... Flavors are much of the same with a bit more of a malt
presence while the hops play an equal role and offering a grassy
bitter note. Medium bodied.
Enjoyed the oppigards a touch more.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle via brother TAR from some friendly Danes. Unfiltered, dark brown body. Tan head, finely bubbled, attractive. Nose is intensely sweet fruit cocktail/marachino cherries/pear/syrup... crystal malt also present but sweet rather than caramely/grainy/toasty. Moderately harsh texture, crystal malt is crusty/sharp/astringent. Sweetened blood oranges and grapefruit throughout. Harsh, intensely bitter and abrasive at times, messy, but still somewhat enjoyable.

Hazy amber with a lasting white head. Strong aroma of classic American hoppiness, grapefruit and pine, with caramel malt in the background. Rather dry malty flavour with a hoppy bitterness and a sugary sweet note that’s not so good.

På Olympen, Oslo 1 Nov 11. Gyldenbrun. Lavt luftig skum som fester seg til glasset. God aroma av syrlig frukt. Smaken er mørke frukter. Litt tung. Syrlig fruktig ettersmak med litt bitterhet. Uklar siste kvelling. Litt bunnfall.

50 cl bottle, via sk8viking. Pours a dark ruby amber body with a great frothy beige head. Spotty sticky lacing. The nose is moderate piney hops with a good bit of crystal malt sweetness. Aggressively piney hop bitterness up front, but a little too much crystal malt coming on in the finish. It makes it too sweet, it reminds me of Lipton Iced Tea powder. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with some stickiness on the back end. Moderate fizzy prickly carbonation. It gets a bit heavy on the palate after a while. IPAs with lots of crystal malt are just not my thing. Big dominating crystal malt has no place in an IPA.
