3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at brewpub. Nice and fruity IPA with what appears to be a somewhat unconventional hop mixture for an IPA (reminiscent of Mikkeller American Dream).
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at Schouskjelleren. Hazy amber, smallish head. Exotic fruits aroma followed by grapefruit and passion fruit hop flavours. Very bitter. Hints of bread. A good IPA.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tap sampler at Schouskjelleren. Creamy tanned head on a murky golden body. Fruity aroma with notes of peaches, cat piss, grains and light malts. Bitter throughout the drink, malt sweet with notes of cereal. Medium to full body. Noticable carbonation. Abrupt finish leaving a dry mouth.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draught @ Schouskjelleren Mikrobryggeri, Oslo
Pours cloudy amber with a white head. Aroma has notes of caramel, citrus, grape and butterscotch. Taste is light to medium sweet and light to medium bitter. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours cloudy orange almost amber colour with a faint light tan head. Nice sweet fruity aroma, especially peaches and some far citric hints too. Refreshing taste with light to medium bitterness and very light sweetness, some malty notes. Light to medium body, oily feel, soft carbonation and a nice medium bitter after taste. Better aroma than taste but ok, good.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap @ the brewpub. Hazy orange body with a thin off-white head. Aroma has citric fruit, tropical fruit and definitively oranges. Fresh and fruity flavor, but less fruity than expected from the aroma, moderate bitter and a hint of orange peel in the aftertaste. A nice and refreshing IPA in the crossover style between American and British.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Medium offwhite head. Hazy opaque orange body. Peachy apricot and oranges aroma with mealy notes. Dry papery apricot taste with resiny metallic notes. Mid-bodied. Dry mealy papery yeasty aftertaste with resiny notes. Lovely aroma, but the taste doesn’t live up to the promise. (0.4l draft at brewpub.)
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the brewpub. Smooth, round. Malty, full bodied. Grassy and herbal bitterness, a bit medical.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Unclear orangey-brown. Thin dense beige head. Fresh citrus fruity hop aroma of tangerines and orange zest, backed by a clean, light caramelly malt scent. Taste is well balanced. Slighly sweet, clean and softly toasted malts together with a fine bitterness and a gentle citrussy hop flavor. Orange marmelade comes to mind. Well-bodied. Soft, juicy mouthfeel. Complex finish, malty, fruity and faintly bitter. Good stuff!
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
About 400ml draught at the brewpub. Slightly hazy, dark orange coloured body. Small patches on the surface. Excellent lacework blanketing the glass. Fresh aroma of tropical fruits and grassy hops. Citrus shells in flavour with tasty notes of grapefruits and pineapples added by modest amount of sweet malts. Smooth bittersweet ending. Medium bodied. Refreshing and likable (Oslo, 10.01.2011).
