plovmand (1588), Helsinge, Denmark Sep 14, 2009 Bottle at Akkurat. Finally I had this. It has been on my want list for years and I was not disappointed at all. Clear golden body with a longlasting off white head. Very fruity aroma with peachy and pineapple notes. A solid malt base delivers a fine caramel background. The flavour is quite complex delivering loads of exotic fruit notes such as peach, mango, pineapple, citrus and pine. It has a creamy texture and is very drinkable and you just enjoy every zip hoping its not the last. Fantastic IPA. gobeers (11), Wisconsin, USA Sep 12, 2009 One of the smoothest IPAs that I’ve ever had. Although I thought this was a APA. No kick from the hops. I guess I’ve almost come to expect a bit of a bite from the hops. This beer has been around a while so have IPAs been getting more hoppy? Would be interesting to know how they got such a smooth hop taste. This beer is mostly about the hops, although the malt support is there to make this a very balanced beer TheDewd (4), Lenoir City, Tennessee, USA does not count Sep 12, 2009 An outstanding beer! One of my favorites of all time. Lots of citrusy hops and some spice. Can’t say enough good things about this one! awiseman01 (318), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Sep 11, 2009 Dan’s Bachelor Party Extended Weekend Rating #40 of 90. On tap at the Eccentric Cafe in Kalamazoo. Pours clear orange with a very nice citrus hop nose. Taste is moderately dry with a good citrus body and finish. I like this. Scouser (39), Pennsylvania, USA Sep 11, 2009 spicy hoppy aroma. Nice golden colour with lots of lacing. Spicy hoppy flavour at first with a nice nutty, crisp finish. a really nice beer. Wombata (74), Kobe, Japan Sep 7, 2009 Color: Orangish gold
Aroma: Fresh-cut grass, floral and resinous hop
Flavor: Some ripe orange, orange rind and fruity malt wrapped ina floral grassy hop bitterness.
Comments: Great mouthfeel. More carbonation than British styles keep this lively on the tongue. Unexpectedly, the bitterness appeared more on the middle of the tongue rather than on the back. I wonder why? An outstanding ale. dben900 (8), richmond, Virginia, USA does not count Sep 3, 2009 One of my favorite beers. On tap @ Caliente. Smooth with big floral/citrus hops. Bet you can’t drink just one! mitchgt (11), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Sep 3, 2009 This is a super beer. Maybe my standard for an easy drinking clean IPA. Appearance amber and cloudy. Head chewy white. Aroma all flowery hops and citrus. Balanced, leaning toward bitter with no obvious sweetness.
