COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A refreshing India Pale Ale where a relatively light malt body of Maris Otter, pilsner malt, light caramel malt and wheat is balanced by a nice hop bite from Columbus, Saaz and Amarillo. Dry hopped with Amarillo. Ølfabrikken Sommer IPA is, of course, unpasteurized, unfiltered and cask conditioned like all of our beers.

Ungstrup (26267) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - AUG 8, 2006
An unclear orange beer with a thick light orange head. The aroma is sweet with citrusy notes from the hops. The flavor is sweet malty with quite a lot of hops, leading to a dry bitter end. A rather refreshing summer beer, but still with a nice hop bite.

Papsoe (25131) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - NOV 29, 2006
(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful clear, warm amber golden with a handsome, dense and lasting off-white head that looks so much like shaving foam. Fat grapefruitish aroma. Medium body a fairly high degree of malt sweetness and then this dry grapefruit bitterness - and some notes of diacetyl? Quite a nice and refreshing IPA. 281106

Bottled (Batch #143). Hazy orange colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is flowery hops along with caramel and yeast. Flavour is flowery hops, yeast and slight alcohol. Enrmous and brutal IPA, yet very smooth and pleasant. Aftertaste is hoppy and yeasty.

Dedollewaitor (12288) - Odense, DENMARK - SEP 30, 2008
Tap at Beerfestival. Cant believe I havent rated this. Super crisp & tasty IPA. Lovely pleasant hoppyness - Pine & orange. Soper smooth palate with enough malts to back up the hops. Super drinkable!

fiulijn (12179) - Malmö, DENMARK - OCT 11, 2006
Cloudy dark amber color; big head. Hoppy aroma, with scent of caramel, resins and pine needles. Medium body structure, malty flavor (dry), caramel, with a strong bitterness, giving a light metallic astringency. The final is quite strong, but not as aromatic as I would like. Undertone IPA.

MiP (12169) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - OCT 12, 2006
Draught. Very nice hop aroma, more or less what I always get in their beers. Fruity, grassy hoppiness. Cloudy dark orange colour, small creamy white head. Sweetish flavour, well balanced by nice bitterness. Some orange juice notes. Quite malty and full-bodied for IPA.
