3.5 Dejlig humle i næsen. Bitter og halvsød og helt ok finish. Behagelig ipa til pengene.
3.5 Bottle from Bierzwerg, Greven. Aroma is fruity hops, grainy malt, grass, citrus, lightly herbal and floral with notes of grapefruit. Flavour is moderate sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Very agreeable sweetish grassy fruity IPA, bittersweet in flavour. Quite nice.
3.5 A fruity smell, light aroma of oranges. The small white creamy head has a long duration, the body is cloudy and pale yellow. A strong bitter taste, fruity finish. The body is light to medium strong, very creamy with a lively carbonation.

3.2 Bottle, thanks Silenzi. Golden with a white head. Mild with soap, light hops and some citrus. The body was medium as was the bitterness.
2.5 @ Silenzi 17-7-31: en brödig pale ale med en underton som känns lite parfymerad. Ingen hit.
3.3 Bottled 330ml. -Hazy pale golden coloured, medium to big white head, grassy hoppy nose. Sweet malty, herbal and grassy hoppy, touch of fruits and alcohol with dry bitter finish. Ok one but nothing special here.
5.0 Ipa de chez Häffner qui casse la baraque, dans la série sous le nom du "trafiquant de houblons" ... Niveau abv de 6,1 % et ebu de 55. Houblonnage quadruple en taurus, saphir, cascade et nelson sauvin. Mon exemplaire était exactement à sa date. Couleur jaune citronné, avec un léger voile. Bulles fines, en colonnes droites, vives. Mousse blanche, très épaisse, à fins flocons, stable à 6 mm. Arômes d’agrumes, mangue, pointe de framboise. Superbe nez. 1ère bouche très souple, à la magnifique entame fruit/malt/résine. Arrière-bouche à l’amertume fruitée, très longue. 2ème aux superbes nuances, avec une pointe de raisins blancs très mûrs. Arrière-bouche longue, très harmonieuse. 3ème au splendide assemblage, qui monte encore en finesse. Arrière-bouche longue, très goûteuse. Longueur avec des fruits, un peu d’épices, une pointe de zeste, un soupçon de résine. Jambes à fins flocons, collantes au milieu. Levure raisinée, belle ligne, qui complète très bien l’amertume. Alcool très efficace, il met en valeur les nuances amères. Finale prégnante, forte. CONCLUSION : une bière qui impressionne d’abord par l’intensité des saveurs. La très belle texture et la levure permettent de continuer ces impressions sur toute la dégustation. Cette ipa porte parfaitement son titre de "incredible pale ale" (ce qui s’abrège aussi en "ipa"), et nous sommes obligés de remercier le trafiquant de houblons pour son travail remarquable, même s’il n’est pas légal ...
3.4 Bottle on a park benchk, Heidhausen, Munchen 15/07/17. Golden with a decent off white head. Nose is melon, orange peel, straw, toasted bread, lemon drizzle. Taste comprises orange pith, melon, bread dough, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced hop bitterness. Ok stuff.
3.7 W koloże ładny ciemny bursztyn, z barwą kompotu z suszonych owoców. W zapachu mocno owocowe. Smak, lekka przyjemna goryczka, nuty chmielowe, owocowe. Słabo wysycone. ładny lacing i drobnopęcherzykowa piana.

3.5 Tap at the Pizza Shop - hazy golden color nice creamy head. Taste is malty, fruity, some herbs. Body is great and adds a bit sourness. Finish is dry and bitter. A great example of style though a bit below outstanding.
3.3 Bottle sampled at Björn, thanks. Fluffy white head. Cloudy yellow color. Fresh hoppy taste with a low to balanced bitterness.
3.7 Helles Gelb, mittlere Trübung. Weisser Schaum, wenig Co2. Tolles Aroma mit Litschi, Ananas - fruchtig, exotisch. Antrunk mild, fruchtig. Körper zurückhaltend, mild. Abgang leichte Bitterkeit, könnte ne Spur mehr sein. Absolut süffig, dabei niemals langweilig. Tolle, runde Sache!
3.0 [33cl bottle shared] Grassy, hoppy aroma with hints of citrus. Cloudy orange in the glass with medium head. Taste of ripe citrus, some exotic fruit and grassy notes. Malty finish. Decent.

3.5 Pours a slightly hazy orange color with medium white head. Aroma has tropical fruits, earth, white grape, slightly tropical and citrus fruits and lime. Taste follows the nose, apricot, tropical fruits, earth, citrus, grapefruit and white grape. Finishes with a moderate bitter aftertaste.
3.6 (Bottle) Hazy golden colour with big, frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, passion-fruit, pineapple, ripe fruit and floral hops. Malty, fruity taste with notes of pears, ripe peaches, tropical fruit, citrus, grass, soft chewy malt and a sweetish finish with a balanced citric bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty, with lots of ripe fruit and a fresh hop character. Nice one.
3.7 26.11.2016 - The cheap looking label and the low prize kept me from buying this before. But this also very balanced IPA is a well made "Hopfengestopftes". Zesty aroma with cascade, a peach sweet malt body and a nice palate creating a very good everyday IPA!
3.1 330 ml bottle. Hazy orange with white head. Aroma of citrus, grapefruit, pineapple, passion fruit. Taste of flowers, citrus, tangerine, grapefruit with a grassy/herbal finish. Medium body, medium carbonation, slick texture. Sadly, contrary to its name it’s mediocre rather than incredible.
3.5 September 2016 - 330ml bottle in Neukolln, as ’Hopfenstopfer Incredible Pale Ale Quad Hop Craft Beer’, 6.5%, BB Dec 2016. Hazy, cloudy pale orange, pretty still, some suspended sediment, foamy white head. Aroma is washing up liquid, grapefruit, dusty, touch of celery. Body is quite frothy, tingly carbonation. Taste is dusty, floral, light grapefruit and tangerine, grassy finish. A nice, restrained, fruity IPA. Maybe not incredible, but still pretty solid. (3.5)
3.9 Bottle. Cloudy pale amber color, really big fine and foamy head. Smells incredible of berries, citrus, passion fruit, pineapple and grapefruit. Dry taste, light sour, medium bitter. Floral aftertaste, but comes with a soapy and lingering bitterness. Average carbonation, medium texture.
4.0 More like a saison than an IPA, but this is great stuff! Beautiful bright yellow color. Abondant fluffy white head. Expressive aromas of tropical fruit and pine. Yum.
3.3 Intense floral hops, grain and cereal malts, dusty straw, pine. Hazy, pale gold, medium, frothy, white head. Light bitter. Floral hops, pine, grass, wet straw, soft carbonation, medium bodied. Very hoppy IPA, maybe a touch too much on the floral side for my taste. Bottle from Wittich Weine und Biere, Olten.
