3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Bathory (360) - Bryne, NORWAY - APR 12, 2013
Pours a copper colour with a good white head. Aroma is mostly grass, with some light citric touches. Flavour much the same, but here the citrus shines a bit more through, which I really liked. Some wet wood in the aftertaste, and not as bitter as I’d hoped. Overall, I was pleased with this one, maybe a bit boring, but the low alcohol doesn’t invite awesomness in general.

1 finger foam golden color. Nose is some grassy notes mildly hopped for an ipa. Some sweetness in taste with some dough and white pepper. Only 4.7 abv. Missing some bitterness and some punch.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 OleR (4247) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAR 1, 2013
0.5 L bottle purchased @Ølhandleriet, Mathallen, Oslo. A thin dense lacing white head, covering a cloudy brass colored body. If not weak, mild aroma of citrus fruity hops. Light-bodied, yet with a soft almost creamy mouthfeel. Nice fruity and resinous bitterness, more prominent than the aroma indicate. Soft semi-dry malt body. Mild hop bitterness linger in the finish. Pretty good for a 4.7% IPA.

Bottle shared @ Cardinal. Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aromas of floral hops, faint citrus and floral tones. Flavors of malt and light hops. It’s an allright IPA, but not as hoppy as expected.

3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Sigmund (4162) - Tau, NORWAY - NOV 16, 2012
500 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.7%. Golden colour, slightly hazy. Moderate white head. Very nice aroma of fruity / citrussy and moderately piney hops. Light bodied as expected. The flavour is distinctly hoppy and medium dry, fruity and resinous hops throughout, with a distinctly bitter finish and aftertaste. Would profit from more malts and a higher ABV, but this is a fairly decent IPA as it is.

Hazy gold.
Lovely inviting aroma. True to type resin, pine needles, on the thin and light side, but very pleasant.
