Nils Oscar India Ale. är en modern tolkning av klassisk India Ale. Ölet baseras på humlesorten Amarillo, som tydligt markerar sin närvaro i ölet. Aromen har drag af tropiska frukter och citrus. Nils Oscar India Ale är överjäst på pilsner-, münchener- och karamellmalt. Passa till nästan all mat, mer är givetvis utsökt även på egen hand.

DruncanVeasey (6116) - NUNEATON, Blue Square Premier, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - OCT 11, 2012
Bottle. Red-bronze with a slim off-white head receding to a halo. Peachy, orange and blackcurrant wine gum aroma with hints of butter and sponge pudding. Pleasantly tangy orange-accented hop on the palate balanced with biscuit and bitterness. Decent hoppy bitter.

womencantsail (6896) - Garbage Grove, California, USA - SEP 25, 2012
Pours an amber color with a white head. Nose is slightly floral with a strong perfume character. Slightly citric with a bit of tangerine. Toffee and toasted malt sweetness on the aroma, too. The flavor is lightly bitter with a mild hop flavor of pine and tangerine as well as some floral notes. A fairly sweet IPA with a healthy dose of toffee, toast, and bread.

rosenbergh (4654) - Helsinki, FINLAND - SEP 19, 2012
330 ml bottle. 1464-03. BB Feb/13. (Systembolaget) Östersund, Sweden.
Clear amber colour with small to average size white head. Sweet fruity aroma with candy and sweet malty notes. Some hoppy bitterness. Flavour ain’t as delicious as the aroma but still tasty. Moderate fruity bitterness, candy sweetness and sweet caramel malt. Metal notes. Thin or even watery.

NordicV (760) - Malmö, Sweden, SWEDEN - SEP 9, 2012
Kopparfärgad öl med vitt skum. Doftar citrus, lätt av tropisk frukt och malt. Bra balans melan humlighet och maltighet. Humlen går mest åt grapefrukt.

dogfishho (470) - Bloomfield, New Jersey, USA - SEP 5, 2012
Watery and thin. Maybe I’m overly stimulated, but there was nothing interesting whatsoever in the hop profile. Not too bitter, not too sweet, not too great.

Not so much hop aroma for a modern India Pale Ale. Limited head. Low alcoholic level for an IPA (5.3%). Good taste. Long bitter finish.

ACD (337) - Dublin, IRELAND - AUG 11, 2012
33cl bottle from Systembolaget, Stockholm. Pours copper with thin white head, light lacing. Aroma is caramel malt, slight citrus, earthy hop note - not as fragrant as I imagined it would be. Hops come out more in the taste with a tasty citrus and slight grapefruit zing complementing the thick caramel malt notes pretty well. Quite thin mouthfeel. Decent pale ale from an interesting brewery.
