Ratsherrn Coast Guard Westküsten IPA
Florierender Handel, rustikale Koggen und neue Seewege über die Elbe entlang der Westküste - die Hamburger Hanse im 15. Jahrhundert war eine starke Zeit. Mit noch stärkerem Gebräu, dem robust eingebrauten Schifferbier. Mit höheren Prozenten. Für eine längere Haltbarkeit auf den hansischen Handelswegen. Erst später folgte das bekannte India Pale Ale. Und zwar, um den langen Seeweg in die indischen Kolonien zu den englischen Truppen zu wuppen. 200 Jahre liegen zwischen Ursprung und späterem Namensgeber des Bierstils IPA. Die Begleiter der Boote waren jedoch zu jeder Zeit gleich: Haie. Bissig. Überall. Unser naturbelassenes Westküsten IPA ist ein waschechtes Schifferbier. Mit einer steifen Brise Fernweh, fruchtigen Noten von Pink Grapefruit, Zitrus und Orangenschale, einer leicht trinkbaren Geschmacksfülle und - einer dezenten Bissigkeit; so ähnlich ie der Hai!

Dunkeltrübes IPA mit rotbraunem Stich. Malz in der Nase. Süffig malzig und leichte Fruchtnoten im Hopfen. Banane und Mango sowie Birne.
Klares bronzefarbenes IPA mit weißem feinporigem Schaum. Das Aroma erinnert etwas an Märzen - Malz relativ dominant und die Hopfennoten gehen etwas unter. Geschmacklich etwas langweilig, hat aber eine gute Bittere. Lässt sich leicht trinken, von einem IPA darf man jedoch mehr erwarten.
Poors clear amber, white lacing, lasting foam head. Aroma is hoppy with some fruity tone, some in taste, modest bitter. (Hamburg 201905)
Lübeck 16/4 2019. 33 cl bottle from Rewe, Wo-Anders, Lübeck. Stylized Drawing of Golden Shark with a hop cone in its jaws on a very pink background.
Pours clear light amber with a small white head. Settles as thin but consistent layer of foam covering the surface of the beer. No Lacing to speak of.
Aroma is of sweet exotic fruit, light fermentation with prominent citric notes. Mango, peach, honey melon. Notes of Grape fruit and citrus.
Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft texture.
Flavor is medium sweet followed by a stronger citric bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a very light sweet undertone. Lingers for a while. Finish is semi-dry.
Decently bitter take on a West Coat IPA which does most things right. And I really like the shark on the label.
Color amarillo anaranjado, turbidez media. Dos dedos de espuma con retención media. Aroma pino y malta. Gusto maltoso, caramelo, galleta, y buena carga de lúpulos, pino, resina, pomelo, mermelada de naranja amarga, amargor potente y duradero. Cuerpo medio. Una IPA muy completa, donde se nota que no se escatima en materia prima, para repetir.
Comes with a nice, peachy aroma, moderate bitterness, gentle carbonation... very well balanced. Some reviewers apparently consider it too restrained for an IPA, and I can see why - but I disagree. You could keep a bottle or two around to serve to people whose palates you wouldn't yet bombard with something more radical. But you might easily find yourself enjoying the occasional glass on your own. It's not too complex or harsh to distract from life around you, but there are a couple of malty subtleties hidden away for you to explore at your leisure.
330ml bottle from Sungiven Foods, Jimei. Pours golden orange with a white head. Aroma of pine, a bit musty. Mild bitter pine taste and finish.
Aroma: almost none, maybe some weak notes of grain. Taste: light bitter, grassy, slightly metallic; tastes like a very bad pilsener. What a trainwreck of a beer.
Bottle from my Summer Secret EuroSanta. Hopy aroma, citrus fruit, resin, floral notes, light caramel. Tastes the same as aroma, medium bitter. Medium body, hopy bitter finish with citrus and resin notes. Ok.
On tap at Altes Mädchen, Hamburg. Pours clear amber with thick off-white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, some malty notes. Tastes bitter with little sweetness. Thin to medium bodied. Bitter finish. A bit one-dimensional.
Tipp!
330 ml bottle. Pours unclear amber coloured, big fluffy head. Caramel, some pine, metallic notes, grapefruit. Metallic and a bit bland bitterness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, bitter abrupt finish. Boring IPA.
Całkiem spoko to piwo. Mocna goryczka, nuty cytrusowe. Nie jest zalegająca.
Unauffälliges West Coast IPA das sich aus der Masse des Angebots sich abhebt. Solide aber kein persönlicher Favorit.
Fles 33cl thuis. Goed bitter. Ook frissig & fruitig. 6 hopsoorten. (7-2016).
Pours dark orange from the bottle. Frothy white head. Aroma is sharply fruity (mango, grapefruit) with fresh dough and caramel underneath. Taste is bitter all the way through, finishes acrid. Dry. Decent palate but with hints of water at the end. Drinkable.
Bottle. Color: Orange golden, off-white head. Taste: Balanced in between medium sweet malt and moderate to medium hopbitterness. Notes of citrus, grapefruit. Hints of caramel and orange. Medium to under medium body, average carbonation. Ok easy drinkable IPA, but nothing special.

bursztynowe, klarowne, z całkiem fajną pianą która nie znika tak szybko,
przewaga nut żywicznych w aromacie, ale są też owoce, cytrusy
posmak lekko alkoholowy, goryczka grejpfrutowa, dosyć sroga,
pijalne, lekkie, całkiem ok
Mild ipa, medium-full body, nicely balanced malt/hop character. My kind of ipa. Not overhopped and astringent like many. Altes Madchen Hamburg (3.5 april 2018)
Tried again at altes madchen. I agree with my previous comments
Wygląd wzorowy, Zapach owocowo cytrusowy, w tle słodowy i jakby syropowy. W smaku również dziwne odczucie - zbyt karmelowego, bardziej winogrona czuć jak w New Zeland ipa niż cytrusy. Jakieś tam nuty żywiczne i trawiaste. Pijalność średnia, mało wyraźne i wyróżniające się.
Pour amber dark orange clear body, white creamy head. Aroma has citrus, mango, plums, lime. Palate is soapy, slick and soft. Carbonation smooth and mouthful. Taste is soapy with bitter hops. Finish is malty and with nice hoppy finish. Overall easy to drink good IPA, little watery due to filtration.
Virkelig en god IPA. Nydt på en cafe i Hamburg. Tilpas med bitterhed og fylde
Aussehen : cremiges Gold braun / Schaum : weiß, Feinporig, langer Stand / Geruch : Mango, Zitrusnoten, leicht malzig, Rosinen / Geschmack : hopfig, herb, schön weich, leicht malzig, später kommen leichte Zitrusnoten
Pours amber, slightly hazy, with low head. Aroma is hops and citrus. Taste is more on the bitter end, with a lasting palate.
On bottle @Aarhus Streetfood.
Fruity scent, with notes of mango and apricots.
The taste is smooth, but quite bitter.
It has notes of fruits like mango - which also makes it fresh.
Nose is slight fruity and with some malts. Pours red amber and with fluffy head. Taste is slight hoppy and with malts. Not ver West coast Style but still nice. Palate short but nice hops.
0,33 l Flasche. Oranges, leicht trübes Bier, große, stabile, schwammige, cremeweiße Schaumkrone, schöne Gardine. Riecht nach bitteren Zitrusfrüchten. Schmeckt nach Zitrusfrüchten, Orangenschalen, angenehm bitter im Abgang.
Flaske (bb. 010917) fra Crate Beer & Vinyl i Jegersborggade, på hytta en fredagskveld: lett uklar oransjegylden med flott skum som varer. Her er alle ipa (egentlig apa)-karakteristika til stede, og det i en fin balanse både mht bitterhet/sødme og fruktighet. Tropiske frukter, grapefrukt, appelsiner og tørkede frukter. Mild og fruktig bitterhet i avslutningen. Mersmak.
A fruity smell of grapefruit, light sweet touch of vanilla. The head is small, dark white and creamy with a long duration. The body is cloudy and orange. A quite bitter taste, light fruity. The body is light to medium strong, creamy and dry during the finish with a normal carbonation.
