3.4 Bottle. 6.2%. Best before 07.05.22. Pours a slightly hazy golden, with an off-white head. Good lacing. Grassy, fruity hop aroma. Light malt in the background. Light grainy overtone. Light citrus, hint of apple as it warms. Flavour is sweetish, slightly dusty, with (caramel) malt, (citrusy) hops. Hint of berries, zest as it warms. Medium bitter finish. Light citrus. Grainy hint. Mild alcohol burn. Lingering grassy, apple notes. Overall okay, if a bit unbalanced. 29.07.20.
3.9 Classic IPA look with amber colour and small white head. Smell of bitter hops and oak. Taste is tight and primarily bitter hops with bit of pine and oak. A very nice IPA.
3.9 Aroma of oak wood and bitter hops Beautiful amber colour with small lasting head Nice taste of bitter hops, pine and wood. A bit abrupt Nice smooth mouthfeel with very mild carbonation Really enjoyable
3.7 Silkeborg 20/7 2020. 33 cl bottle from Netto in Billund. De Molens usual austere design with neat and detailed writing in black on a white label. And the small logo with the Mill. Pours slightly unclear orange with a small white head. Settles as thin layer of foam struggling to cover the surface of the beer. Substantial lacing. Aroma is intense with a sweet maltiness mingling with citrus fruit. Sweet exotic fruit with peach and mango. Citrus and tart grapefruit. Hops seems a bit dusty. Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, oily and tingling texture. Flavor is fairly intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by stronger, sharp and citric bitterness. Aftertaste is citric and bitter. Lingers for a while. Finish is bone-dry. They self consciously call it “India Pale Ale-ish” on the label. But it is a fine, dry and bitter specimen.
3.3 33 cl bottle @ home. Pours cloudy amber with a white head. Aroma and flavour are caramel and citrus - with a slightly dry finish.
3.5 Bottle. Pours amber with off-white head. Hops, malty and some pine. Yeast and fruits. Biscuits, tangerines, rich hobby, raisin and piney taste and finish. Very well defined and balanced. Not much surprising, just plain and good IPA.
3.0 Velbalanceret ipa, ikke specielt humlet men god varm mundfølelse
3.5 Aroma. Pineapple, malt. Taste: Very dry, nice lasting hop bitterness. Refreshing. Mouthfeel: Covering. Bottom line. An expression of a well known type of IPA. Nothing new here. But it's quite good for what it is.
3.5 Flaske: Efter at være kommet mig over skuffelsen over at have købt to af denne øl i stedet for den anden DeMolen jeg kunne rate, er dette en ok gammeldags vestkyst IPA. Duften er let stale men både smagen og især mundfylden er god. Bitterheden er udtalt og ellers hvad det er.
3.4 Aroma: Ripe fruits with dusty hops. Flavour: Fruity bitter with tangy notes and fruity sweetness. Aftertaste is fruity bitter. Colour: Amber with a white head. From: Bottle @ Bilka Tilst Jun. 2020.
4.1 In mijn ogen een uitzonderlijk goeie IPA. Terwijl je dit bier drinkt proef je de bekende citrus maar ook overduidelijk gras en bloemen. Ik zag mezelf in de zon aan een grasweide zitten met veldbloemen. Echt van genoten!
3.5 Bottle.Hazy yellow colour with medium white head.Aroma of citrus and hops nice well balanced and easy to drik ipa.
3.8 Bottle. Pours slightly hazy amber with stable off-white head. Clear aroma of hops nd citrus, with notes of malt and touches of yeast and fruit. Bitter flavour of hops and grass, with sweetish notes of malt and yeast. Citric aftertaste with hoppy bitterness and touches of yeast. Well-balanced and quite enjoyable.
3.6 Restrained aroma in a hazy amber pour. Hop forward balance with a smooth preserved fruit body and laid back bitter finish.
3.9 Orange colour with thin white head. Aroma of tangerines and honey, slightly pine. Taste starts with malty caramel sweetness but punchy bitterness immediately strikes through. Bitter, resinous aftertaste.
3.4 Aroma herbal y tropical, algo acaramelado. En boca melocotón, mango, pino y un excelente final amargo que se abre camino con mucha naturalidad.
3.9 Golden-amber, slightly hazy, with a decent white head. Rich hoppy aroma. Taste is hops, some distant fruit and a gentle bitterness.
