6 Hop IPA
Rogue Ales

RB transfer

Copenhagen 13/10 2018. 35,5 cl can from Meny, Østerfælled Torv, Kbh Ø. The number 6 spelled in Hop Cones on the can. The ABV is 6,66. Very cute.

Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Settles as 0,5 cm thick layer of head covering the surface of the beer. Substantial Lacing.

Aroma is intense, fruity and austere. Light odor of exotic fruit dominated by citric acidic notes. Grapefruit, lemon acidicy.

Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, prickly texture.

Flavor is medium sweet followed by strong bitterness. Aftertaste is strongly bitter. Lingers for a while. Finish is dry.

Potent and bitter IPA. Stays with me for a long and pleasant while.

 

his is another wonderful beer from the guys at Rogue. Nice hop flavor without the bitterness. Purchased 22oz bottle at Costco. 87 IBUs Rated 10-8-2018

 

 

12 ounce can poured into a tulip glass.

L---Not hazy, but impenetrable deep Amber color. Medium head that faded quickly and left good lacing.

S---Fairly mild aroma. Sweet & fruity (citrus). Some floral and honey notes as well, but very subtle.

T---Same notes as the nose, but a bit stronger. Clear hop presence.

F---Medium mouthfeel, mild carbonation. Good feel for style.

O---I was expecting more from Rogue. It's not bad, by any stretch, but it could be better.

12 oz. can from a 6-pack purchased from Roth's in WEst Salem . $9.99.
Pours a hazy amber colour? With a very nice thick and frothy off white head. Leaves great lace.
Aroma is pretty subdued. Maybe too many hops spoil the beer?. What there is is a strong caramel maltiness..then some floral hops. A bit of old style Oregon dankness in the end.
Flavor is a bit better with the hops. Very bitter, Which I don't mind. Fairly old style bittering.
Good mouth feel , well carbonated and medium thick.
Despite the haze this is an old style 1990s Oregon IPA. I like it others may not

 

 

this beer is all bitter in the front end with 0 finish! There is no complexity with 6 hops I would expect a bitter atmosphere but also citrus and piney flavors to push thru save your money if you live in Oregon look for boneyard RPM or HUB panda or breakside Wunderlust these last 3 you can drink with much more enjoyment.

12 ounce can.
Pours a burnt orange slightly hazy with finger plus of bubbly off white head.
Floral piney hops,citrus, caramel malt, honey/honeysuckle on the nose.
Malty sweet taste - honey, caramel - quickly to piney, leafy green bitterness with slightly resinous note.
Medium mouthfeel with tame carbonation; persistent lingering resinous slightly sticky bittersweetness.

 

No words are needed. This was a awesome IPA.

 

12oz can served in a nonic glass. PKGD on 06/03/20.

Look- Slightly hazy amber color. Decent off-white head that slowly recedes to a light ring of foam, modest/light lacing. Light carbonation streams visible.

Smell- Citrus (grapefruit, orange and lemon), tropical fruit (pineapple and mango), peach and light dank melon, caramel malt, moderate pine and floral/herbal notes.

Taste- Similar to the aroma. Sweet malt, citrus, pineapple, light peach and melon, pine, big lingering hoppy bitter finish. Pretty nicely balanced.

Feel- Medium bodied, sticky, dryish side and fairly crisp. Medium/light carbonation on the tongue.

O- A nice old school west coast style IPA but nothing outstanding. Worth checking out though.

Solid ipa from Rogue. This brewery has impressed me since 1996. Very smooth and hoppy. Could be bitter and better for my tastes but then again this is not the Alchemist. More of a session and very drinkable.

 

 

Bought a 6-pack cans $8.98 Foodland
326 days old. Did not think to look at can date when buying. Don't think their bottles have dates.
Smell of lychee, orange juice, tangerines
Hazy amber color
Medium-heavy mouthfeel
Medium carbonation
Taste of lychee, slight caramel taste, alcohol aftertaste
Overall not that great. Maybe aging has something to do with it. Alcohol taste comes stronger the more I drink it, which to me means that it is not a refined product.
