ElDesmadre (476) - Mikołów, POLAND - MAY 13, 2012
Bottle. Hazy orange with a rather small head. Sweet, tropical American hop scent - mainly mango, lychee and passion fruit, with pine and grapefruit less prominent. Smells like tropical fruit juice. Full body, soft yet weighty on the palate. It is a sipper more than a quaffer, which pushes it towards imperial IPA regions. The taste is a bitter-sweet masterpiece with bready malt and tropical hops interacting and complementing each other. All very smooth, devoid of roughness or aggression and yet intense. Masterful!

On tap at Zly casy. Nice hops aroma, albeight a bit weeker than is usual for an IPA. Lovely elder taste with hops. A bit sweeter than you’d expect from IPA, but great nevertheless.

MadIndian (1901) - Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 23, 2012
Gift from SJ. Odd beer that didn’t remind me of an IPA. Some caramel malts. Hints of pineapple and citrus. A mild bread and dry finish. A little thin , but not bad.
