Passion Pale Ale
Poppels Bryggeri

Very much passion fruit on the scent. Lots of yeast too. Nice, fresh pale ale. Not particularly complicated. A little watery maybe. No sweetness.

In this beer, I think a little more sweetness would have balanced out the beer more.
Good bitterness, as a pale ale usually has.

But definitely an okay pale ale overall! Nothing particularly surprising though. Lots of fruit, winey tones. Relatively sour.
Would buy again if im in the mood for a fruity light pale ale.

 

 

 

330 ml stubby bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.2%, IBU 40. Golden colour, large white head. Aroma of tropical fruits (including passionfruit), a hint of sweat. Refreshing flavour, notes of citrus and tropical fruits but not too sweet, moderate bitterness.

A 330ml bottle with a BB of April 2018. Acquired a while back from a webshop. I can't read the label as it's all in Swedish, but this ale either has a passionfruit aroma or contains actual passionfruit.

A: Poured into a tulip. Bottle conditioned. A hazy amber colour with intense carbonation and plentiful floating sediment. Produces an enormous head of fluffy white foam that lasts for a few minutes before reducing to a persistent surface layer. Slight lacing.

S: Aroma of perfumed fruity hops with hints of passionfruit, peach, tropical fruit, zesty citrus, subtle hay, earthy yeast and pale malt. Distinctly fruity - nice.

T: Tastes of fruity aromatic hops with notes of passionfruit, tropical fruit, stone fruit, mild citrus, peel, earthy yeast, pale malt and faint leafiness. Pretty dry, followed by a crisp, moderate hoppy bitterness upon swallowing.

M: Mouthfeel is smooth, tingly and dry, with spritzy carbonation and good body. Lightly astringent. Aftertaste of bitter fruity hops, passionfruit, tropical fruit, earthy yeast and pale malt.

O: A rather nice pale ale with a fruity hop presence. Looks great, while the aroma and flavour are seriously passionfruit-laden, aided along by tropical fruit, peach and earthy yeast. Nice body. Very drinkable; goes down a treat. Worth sampling.

 

From Degustarsur. In Teku glass. Playing Sentience An Android's Tale. Plenty of passion fruit,specially in aroma, where an explossion occurs when opened. Light body, more thickness desiderable

 

 

 

 

 

Almost clear golden color with white head. Aroma has natural fruit notes, seems slightly tart, also quite dank on the nose. Taste starts slightly sweet, continues with the passionfruit, also slightly metallic and sweaty. Finishes with a light pink grapefruit bitterness. Light body, medium carbonation. Overall it's interesting and has a natural feel to it but it's a bit too sweaty and dank.
