Review: Epic Armageddon IPA

I made another trip out to Albuquerque New Mexico not only to visit family, but to try and find some beers I can not get back East. One of the beers I picked up comes from Epic Brewing Company in New Zealand. Their Armageddon, an American IPA, can hopefully live up to bold giant red [...] [...]

To Øl Mikkeller Overall IIPA

Päätin pikaisen Töölö-sessioni tähän hanaolueen, jonka kahviversiota oli äskettäin Oulussakin tarjolla. Tämä on streitti imperial IPA, 10,5%. Hyvin samea. Hedelmäinen, hyvin humalainen, vihannesta väistämättä. Ei loppujen lopuksi oikein… [...]

Evil Twin Omnipollo Russian Roulette

Tanskalais-ruotsalaista yhteistuotantoa, black IPA 7,1%, jälleen jaettuna Olutriippuvaisen kanssa. Katkeroa on todella rankasti. Paahtoa pohjalla, mutta humalointi hallitsee. Tässä on ehkä Cascadian Darkin ihanteet viety äärimmilleen. Hedelmäisy… [...]

Evil Twin El Raval Hipster Ale

Pääsin paikalle Taka-Töölön uuden olutparatiisin tanskalaisteematapahtuman alkumaininkeihin. Baarissa notkui muistakin alan riennoista tuttuja usual suspecteja. Mikkeller-brändin haltijan kaksosveljen brändi parhaiten esillä. Keväisen Helsingi… [...]

Sigtuna Easter India Pale Ale

Dags för IPA från Sigtuna Brygghus som ej är att förväxlas med East Coast IPA eller East River Lager. Det finns väl fler bokstavskombinationer att använda east-stället Sigtuna? Hur som helst har vi en amerikansk IPA på 7% med en klar bärnsten… [...]

Deviant Dale’s IPA in tallboy cans from Oskar Blues is a hophead’s delight

Deviant Dale’s IPA, the imperial IPA from Colorado’s Oskar Blues Brewery, is making its way across the U.S. in new 16-ounce tallboy cans. The beer (8% ABV, 85 IBUs) packs a wallop of citrusy and piny hops on the nose, and intense hop flavor balanced by just enough malt sweetness. Oskar Blues describes it this [...] [...]

Djævlebryg OriginAle Darwinian IPA, hanaversio

Tanskalainen pienpanimohanaolut ei ole Oulussa vieläkään jokapäiväinen tuttavuus, joten tämä paholaispanimon darwinilainen IPA piristää kummasti tunnelmaa huhtikuun räntäviimassa. Alkoholia tanakasti 8,5%, sameaa punaruskeaa juomaa. Nahkeaa … [...]

Beaumont.

Problems arise, however, when we attempt to create new categories for everything rather than defining them within the context of those style we already understand. Take the double IPA, for instance. A proper double IPA is a strong and very … Continue reading [...]

Review: Starr Hill Northern Lights

I’m not one to turn down a new (to me) IPA, especially if that IPA comes from a local brewery. The Northern Lights comes from Starr Hill based out of Charlottesville, VA. Being a fan of their beers I had to pick up a six-pack of the Northern Lights as soon as I saw it. The [...] [...]

Sigtuna East Coast IPA – igen

I maj 2011 kom Sigtuna Summer IPA, en amerikansk IPA på 7 % från Sigtuna Brygghus med humle från USA och Nya Zeeland. Jag recenserade (länk), gillade och gav 3,95 i betyg. I mars 2012 kom Sigtuna East Coast IPA, en amerikansk IPA på 7 % från Sigt… [...]

Roses on Roses

Hard to believe that Fort George is five years young and even harder to believe about this special beer. “A strong west-coast IPA fermented with a ravenous Belgian yeast strain is allowed to condition in Four Roses Bourbon Barrels until the oak and esters become one. This is blended back into a bright tank, a [...] [...]

Raven Black IPA till pestokyckling med pumpakärnor

Efter att ha barnvaktat den yngsta systersonen under eftermiddagen kom vi hem ganska sent. Lyckligtvis hade vi planerat förväg för att göra en snabb och enkel, men samtidigt god, middag. Den bestod av några kycklingfileer som man skär på längde… [...]
