Feb 26, 2009 Bottle 650 ml. The category here says American Strong Ale and the label Imperial extra pale ale... sound like an interesting entcounter. The first thing that hits you when popped is a scient of sweet malts. The pour is medium golden with a clearnes and a fine white head. The nose is very malty with hops, almonds and steel. The palate is rather thick and creamy. The taste is dominated of alcohol and sweet notes from the american hops and something like sweet brown sugar with a hoppy-bitter finish that not really works for me. It could be better balanced imo. Drinking something for New York state is a plesure though...I soon have to go there.

Feb 25, 2009 Truly dissapointing. I expected an interesting American pale ale, but the outcome is not at all exciting. The aroma is more alcohol-sweet than hoppy - strange for a beer named Hoppe. The mouthfeel is thin and unsatisfying for a beer at that abv, and the flavour is primairily sweet and malty with a metallic turn towards bitterness at the end. I don’t get it ...
