COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Slagsta är vår tredje single hop ale på 5,6% där en enda humlesort använts i alla humlegivorna och maltbasen är exakt densamma som i tidigare single hop ale. Vi har använt ett antal olika mellanmörka maltsorter vilket gör att ölet har en behaglig maltighet. I Slagsta har vi använt humlesorten Citra som är en amerikansk humlesort från 2008 som ger fruktiga toner av citrus och krusbär. Citra ger karaktär av moget fruktkött och inte det kärva fruktskalet vilket gör detta till en lättillgänglig och mycket populär humlesort. Ölet är smaksatt med mycket generösa humlegivor och humleälskare kommer inte att bli besvikna.

Vignale (912) - Malmö, SWEDEN - MAY 20, 2012
På flaska från Systembolaget. Mörkt bärnstensfärg som drar något åt rött. Smutsvitt medelhögt skum. Doft av grape och tallskott. Murrig smak liksom anddra av Eskilstunas single hop. Men en tydlig smak av fruktkött från grape friskar upp. Fruktig, lättdrucken och helt okej.

tkrjukoff (2676) - SWEDEN - APR 21, 2012
Bottle 50 cl, Tullen. Pours thin murky dark mahogany with a small off white head. Aroma is soapy, malty, hoppy, a bit fruity and slightly sweet. Flavor is malty, fruity, acidy in front, adds more malt body and bitterness in middle which sustains to the end together with a hint of phenols and floral tones. Finishes longlived bitter dry.

TEJA (786) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - FEB 13, 2012
Sampled at Monks Cafe, Stockholm. Grey lasting thick head. Fresh Citrus hop aroma. Citrus taste that overpowers any other taste there might be. To small body to balance all the hop.

Draught (handbottled, thanks Kike!). Pale coppery colour with a small beige head. Aroma is fruity and floral hops with some sweet malty notes. Flavour is toffee, sweet fruits and mild notes of grass and some berries. Balanced, but a bit thin.
