Commercial Description:
IPA stands for India Pale Ale and ours is an American version of the classic style. IPA’s namesake lies in its colonial roots. British soldiers on their way to India dark a lot of beer, but found it would go stale on the long voyages. Meanwhile, brewers knew that by adding more hops, the beer would stay fresh. Voila! A new style was born and it is one we are proud to brew. Southern Tier IPA is a triple-hopped on its journey to your glass for a fully aromatic experience.

It is orange-golden with a creamy head. The aroma has notes of fruit, spruce and malt. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of caramel, citrus/oranges, other fruits, light soap and dust and the finish has some grapefruit and it’s dry and bitter. Somehow this is not what I expected from this brewer, perhaps I should re-rate it some day, since it’s not as fruity/refreshing as I hoped for...

Aroma of sweet apricot. Appearance is yellow with a small head. The taste is bitter with a souer aftertaste, the carbonation is low. A good IPA.

A nose of caramel, grape, and the soda trocadero. Taste is faint, and contains grape, hops, and a certain sweetness. Finish is bitter and acidic. Palate is a bit thin. Carbonation is way to low.

Bottle from Ølbutikken, København. Amber colored, slightly foggy. Greyish fingerthick head. Oily, light resnious hops on the nose. Suggestions of eucalyptus and citrus zest. Taste is sweet citrus-fruity, hoppy, with a subdued malt body. Sharp, almost astringent mouthfeel. Sweetish, piny and fruity-bitter finish. A straightforward hoppy one.
