3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20 Marko (3612) - Split, CROATIA - OCT 19, 2006
Bottle (11/12) courtesy of Papsoe (thanks!), shared with ozujsko. My first APA. And I recognized it as such before I knew it was set as one here. Hmm... Poured a nice orange colour, with a medium-big fluffy white head and lively carbonation. The nose is malt, green apples, lime, and some yeast. Nice. A pleasant, if maybe too subdued and one dimenstional taste. Lime, herbal hops, yes, somewhat "piney", with a bitter hoppy aftertaste, a touch of caramel. Amarillo dominates, obviously, but is never even close to being harsh or aggresive. The beer could’ve, however, used a better malty backbone. A lack of one can really be felt, and the beer got boring soon enough.

A powerful goden ale. Full of taste, a fruitiness coupled with the pine aroma of the hops. Well worth trying!

UPDATED: OCT 7, 2006 Bottle. Mikkeller has not lived in vain, for they have made the amarillo hop famous, GB is trying to replicate and it is good but get a life.
