Supplier: Beers of Europe
This is an "IPA done the American way" by a Danish brewery using three American hops (warrior, simcoe, and centennial). I served this straight from the fridge.

Appearance: An opaque dirty gold colour with an off-white head that thins but stays.
Aroma: That lovely lychee lemon hop smell dominates this smell, nothing else.
Flavour: Quite sharp on the tongue initially and then develops into that classic citrus hoppy taste with a little hoppy sourness before a strong but not unpleasant hoppy bitterness.
Body: A little light and a little fizzy but not bad.
Aftertaste: A little too much bitterness that it tastes green, like a plant.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 6, a simple beer that displays a clear hoppy profile but nothing else, close to a 7 but the aftertaste is a bit to unpleasant.
Price Range: £3.69 for a 330ml bottle, a nice beer but this is too much for a bottle of this, I think it is carried by the breweries name (for me at least).
Food Pairings: Something gamey like roast pigeon, the floral hops would balance the gameyness of the bird.
