High Water Hop Riot IPA
Hop Riot IPA is our flagship beer. Brewed in the American IPA style with a definitive "Left Coast" attitude. We brew our IPA with an aggressive bitterning level which is complimented and balanced by a defined malt backbone. Our final signature is the dry hop step where fresh hops are immersed in the finished beer to provide the floral and citrus aromas of our IPA, a Hop Riot indeed.

@ Basunen 15-8-15: känns lite trött. Malt och trött humle. Lite smör, fin fyllighet. Nja.
Loads of fresh hops on the nose, but also a malt influence. The flavour lacks a sharp hop finish, the malt dominates the final taste.
Bottled at Flying Scotsman, Stockholm. Cloudy golden small head. Caramelly sugary nose. Sweet with medium body and sticky mouthfeel. Limp caramel dominates totally. Peppery bitter finish.
How : tap Appearance : hazy dark orange, small to medium white head. Aroma : tropical fruits, caramel, floral, herbs and some pine. Palate : medium body, soft carbonation.
Aroma of tropical fruits, citrus, orange, biscuity malt, caramel, pine, leaves, some floral notes, hops. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a medium bitter finish. Too malty and sweet, but still drinkable. Not a "hop riot" at all.
Bottle, 650 ml from Svijet Piva. Courtesy of Kova, shared with him and Miro. Hazy yellow with medium white head. Hoppy bitter, citrus, pine, good malty base. Dry hoppy bitter finish.
Ambar oscura, bonita, con abundante espuma blanca. Turbia. Aroma muy muy potente. Pino predomina. Piña también. Cremosa y suave en el paladar, con poco gas. Dulce y afrutada al principio, para pronto mostrar todo su potente amargor. El pino del aroma no se muestra ya. En su lugar tira más a los sabores frutales. Piña, albaricoque, y cítricos. Ciertamente es fuerte en lúpulo. Pero ciertamente también encuentra algo (todo es imposible) de equilibrio en las maltas de calidad. Muy buena. Obviamente para quienes aprecian el estilo sólo.
Bottle from Brewdog online. Hazy orange amber with creamy white head. Aroma of orange, grapefruit, pine and malts. Nice malty, hoppy, spicy taste with citrus hops and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Very nice.

Butelka 60cl.
OCZY : piwo ma kolor ciepły miedziany. Piana piwa ma kolor kremowy, jest średniej wielkości ale za to jest trwała i świetnie koronuje na szklance.
NOS : tarta i żywica. Aromat jest również kremowy, coś na styl amerykańskiego sernika. Oprócz oczywistych nut pomelo i mango wyczuwam troszeczkę świeżej gruszki i jabłka. Pozytywnie.
USTA : umiarkowanie nasycone o kremowej i puszystej konsystencji. Przyjemne w ustach.
Świetnie wyważone miedzy słodkością a gorzkością. Nie jest to wytrawna IPA ale nie ma mocno zalegających nut gotowanych wiśni jak czasami bywa w ciemniejszych IPA. Piecze jak kandyzowany imbir. Posmak jest o dziwo delikatny, pierny i żywiczny.
ODCZUCIA : bardzo fajna IPA. Polecam. Nic za dużo ani za mało. Balans i przyjemność w piciu. Do tego bardzo przyjemne w ustach. IPA dla początkujących.
Bottled 650ml. -from Svijet Piva Zagreb. Cloudy orange/golden coloured, medium sized white to off-white head, piney hoppy nose. Moderate sweet malty, piney and grapefruity hoppy, notes of caramel and herbs with rather sweet finish. Not bad at all but really nothing special here.
Amber colored, a bit cloudy, nice white head. Aroma is caramel biscuit, floral and citrus hops. Taste medium to heavy sweet caramalt, floral candy, grapefruit citrus, some pine, dry medium bitter finish. Maybe a bit too sweet and malty. Medium bodied, somewhat oily. Thanks to Ogi!
Oof, huge thanks Ogi for bringing this! Poured a misty amber-orange body with a small whtie head that went away fast. Aroma... humm... is this stale? No date on the bottle. Sweet, malt-driven with a tea-like fruity hop note, slightly tropical. Taste... orange, honey, tea, solid, slightly excessive even malty backbone, just vaguely citrusy. Mid bitterness for the style, quite fine though, some nice notes, but it’s not my type of IPA if it’s supposed to be like this.
Aromat: potężne uderzenie żywic i iglaków z akcentami czerwonych owoców. skórka od grefruta i trawiaste posmaki
Wygląd: średnio klarowne ciemne złoto, piękna piana
Smak: mocarne uderzenie goryczki, żywice, sporo owoców, w tle delikatna, ale przyjemna landrynka
Odczucie: goryczka zalegąjaca, wysoka, ale bardzo przyjemna.
Świetna West Coast IPA. Nic dodać, nic ująć. Perfekcyjne wbicie się w styl.
Orangish color with a light beige head, good lasting and medium lacework. Aroma has notes of bittery oranges, some pine and resins. Flavor has a decent bitterness, very fruity, grapefruit and orange peel dominating. Good bitterness in the final with a creamy mouthfeel. Easy drinkable.
botella. @Cimmeria, Oviedo ................................................. 23/01/2014
I like a citrus or floral leaning IPA. This is neither. It has a bit of a sour finish. Slightly bitter. It's not a bad beer. Just not good for me.
On tap at Olympen. Hazy amber, small head. Pine and citrus nose. In the mouth also soothing caramel as well as bitter pine. Nice and bitter finish.
[6586-20140814] Tap. Sweaty pine resin aroma. Clear, orange body with a medium-lasting creamy off-white head. Bitter pine needles and plastic pine plank flavour. Medium body. Rough and piney but interesting. (7/3/7/3/15) 3.5
(@ Blue Monk, Buffalo, NY)
Dank hop aroma, caramel, pine and alcohol. Golden brown color with thick white head. Nice hoppy danky taste. Perfectly balanced. Solid IPA.
Botella de 65 cl en el lúpulo en el invierno de 2013-2014. una ipa con sabores florales y algo cítricos fácil de beber y con buena sensación alcohólica, con 7.3 vol. Para repetir sin problemas.
Very intense body with oily sweet taste. Slight hop aromas with very little bitterness in the finish.
Dark orange color with creamy dense white head. Very bready malts, caramel and resinous hops. Taste is very sweet with a heavy warming bitterness towards the end. Interesting, very bready, although this was on tap and pretty fresh.
