Commercial Description:
Danish: Hornbeer Imperial IPA er en lidt kraftigere sag, end almindelige IPA. Der er brugt lidt mere af det hele. Oprindelig var IPA'erne beregnet for de engelske søfolk, der skulle rejse den lange vej til Indien. Det er 200 år siden. For at øllet skulle holde sig friskt, blev det brygget med høj alkoholprocent og med høj bitterhed fra humlen. Vi er så gået en tand videre. Har brugt lidt mere malt, lidt mere humle. Prøv Hornbeer Imperial IPA til ristet rugbrød med gorgonzola eller andre markante, bløde oste. IPA'ens bitterhed sammen med ostens skarpe smag passer fantastisk sammen.

Draught at Aarhus festival. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Orange colour. One of the few beers on festival with lasting head! Heavy malty and hoppy aroma. Heavy bitter flavor. Long nice complex malty/hoppy finish. Creamy palate. Great stuff.

Draught @ Ølfestival Aarhus 2008.
Unclear medium amber orange color with a average, frothy, fair lancing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, caramel, moderate hoppy, orange. Flavor is moderate to light heavy sweet and bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily - sticky, carbonation is soft. (160508)

On tap at Århus Ølfestival. A slightly hazy orange-golden beer with a small, off-white head. Sweetish and malty on the nose, with a tiny note of cooked vegetables in the background. Sweet and fruity in the mouth, with a nice citrusy hoppyness giving a pleasant bitterness. Fullbodied, with a fruity finish. A dangerously quaffable, un-complex and pleasant beer. (080516)

Tap @ Aarhus beerfestival 2008. Aroma is strong hoppy: grapefruit and pines. Hazy, orange coloured beer with an off-white head. Taste is bitter, fresh, dry. Has orange, grapefruit and pine. Good balance.

Bottled at Ølfestival, Århus, 2008. A hazy amber beer with a thin biege head. The aroma is sweet hoppy and grassy, while the flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and lots of grass, leading to a bitter finish.

Bottle at Ølfestival 2008, Århus
Hazy amber color, creamy head. It’s a good and solid IIPA, with a very good sweet toffee flavor and a quite strong body; also the bitterness is quite bold; but the fermentation process has to be improved, as there are strange traces here and there... (esters, diacetyl?)
