Sally Blossom
Mikkeller ApS

Pours hazy dark yellow / brownish with off white head.
Aroma has lots of honey, papaya, over ripe pineapple.
Taste is really hoppy in the start, ripe stone fruits and then the honey flavor in the finish. Pretty smooth.

 

 

 

Amazing rendition of a NEIPA, another one from Mikkeller Brewing.
Great foamy head accompanied with a hazy golden orange, dark gold color.
Grrat aromatics coming from both the orange honey and the malts.
Citrus upfront, almost no bitterness, extrememly smooth. The orange blossum honey plays perfectly with this beer because it is already a citrusy style. A suble orange/honey flavor coming thru perfectly. Must try! Im glad i bought a four pack.

 

A: Pours a murky pale golden yellow in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising along the edges of the glass and faint burnt orange colored highlights. The beer has a two finger tall dense foamy white head that slowly reduces to a large patch of medium thick film covering the entire surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate to significant amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate to strong aromas of floral (honeysuckle + jasmine) and citrus/orange hops over the top of light to moderate aromas of biscuit malts with a light amount of honey sweetness.

T: Upfront there is a light flavor of biscuit malts with a light amount of honey sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of floral/honeysuckle and floral/jasmine hops with a light to moderate flavor of citrus/orange hops which contribute a hint of bitterness which fades away quickly leaving a lingering floral flavor.

M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Crisp initially with a light amount of dryness in the finish.

O: Enjoyable and easy to drink hiding the alcohol very well. I like the flavors and aromas of the honeysuckle floral hops though this one is a touch sweeter than I like my IPAs.

 

 

 

 

 

Pours into a mug a menacing murky can't describe color with a half finger white head atop,very menacing looking.Very citric in the nose,orange oils really stand out.I like the low carbonated feel in the mouth,glides down easy.Very fruit forward on the palate with not much bitterness to be had,citrus'y and somewhat sweet but not to the point of cloying.The sweetness gets to ya after a bit but it's a damn good beer.

L - Pours a hazy light orange color with a white head.
S - Very floral and citrusy tangerine.
T - Floral, citrus, pineapple, and honey.
M - Very smooth and light. Medium mouthfeel and carbonation.
O - This is great summertime NE style IPA. Very refreshing and tasty.

....lets see...hmmmm....refreshing but....overrated- not one of their best efforts...and not worth the five bucks a can I paid...

A: Pale, cloudy and completely opaque
S: Floral, sweet honey, citrus
T: Huge orange blossom honey, light bitterness, tangerine, hint of butterscotch
M: Light carbonation with a creamy light body
O: The honey, hops and yeast characters blend very nicely

 

 

 

Pours a vey hazy completely opaque dirty matte yellow color. Fizzy white head dissipates quickly leaving lots of large bubbly lacing and a thin fizzy white head. For a NE style beer this is the haze bomb people are looking for.

Smell has notes of honey, flowers, blossom honey, hints of citrus and some cracker malt.

Taste follows the nose with lots of honey, floral hops, blossom honey, lots of citrus hop flavors - orange, lemon, and lemon rind. Almost no bitterness. I really love the honey in this - it works so well.

Feel is full bodied, yet very drinkable. Super smooth and pillowy. Mild to moderate carbonation. Very well done for the style.

Overall a fine contribution to the NE Style. Wish this was more readily available and Id definitely drink this one again.
