Quinta entrega - Mayo


The end of the series is approaching. This month was interesting, including a Raspberry beer (not sure if that is really a beer) and some good choices.

Einstök Ölgerđ Icelandic Wee Heavy

Scottish ale brewed with angelica root and smoked Icelandic barley.
Red-ish brown ale, slightly haze, with a creamy brown head, remaining only at the edge.
Smells of herbs 🌿 and fruit, and brown sugar or caramel. Tastes of smoked roasted grains, with traces of herbs and some sweetness end, moderate bitterness, spicy and smoky finish.

Swedish meatballs or pyttipanna, continuing with the food pairing.



Tiny Rebel - Dutty

Vermont Session IPA
Pale yellow haze sight (looks like grapefruit juice), unfiltered, medium white head, disappears fairly quick. Medium carbo body.
Smells of flowers and tropical fruits, mango and peach. Taste slightly sweet, tropical fruits and grapefruit, and bitter hops, pine finish.



Oppigårds - Raspberry sour

Experimenting something different, really different. I am not sure this would qualify as beer, but e will give it a try.

Pink hazy look, with a light white head. It really looks like pink grapefruit juice.
Smells of raspberries, grains and flowers. It does not taste like beer, it tastes like sour Swedish raspberries candies.



To Øl - 45 days organic pilsner

“You don’t rush a good Pilsner” 😊
Gold honey tone, white dense head that remains for a while, stays at the borders, low carbo.
Smells of biscuits, grains and citrus. Bitter taste with traces of sweet and malt, bitterness remains after taste, with nice light spice.
Nice rounded beer, taste, smell, body, remains.



Crew Republic Roundhouse Kick

Strong dense porter.
Dark color, almost black chocolate with a dense brown head, no visible carbo.
Smells of roasted malt, chocolate, coffee. Taste of sweet caramel, malt coffee and licorique, some bitterness remains. No food inspiration, it rather reminds me of the smell of wood in Irish pubs.



Tempest Brewing CO - Brave New World West Coast IPA

Nice tasty spicy IPA (stronger than it seems)
Nice looking slightly hazy amber, white medium head, medium carbo.
Smell of flowers and grain, orange, peach and pine. Taste of citrus, peach, pine and orange, nice hopes bitterness that remains aftertaste.
