Copenhagen 31/10 2019. 44 cl can from Østerbro Vin & Spiritus (formerly Gunnar Madsen Vinhandel, Østerbrogade, Kbh. Ø. Cartoonish illustrations on the can with flashy explosions and word balloons.

Pours hazy, golden yellow with a very big white head. Fairly stable. Settles as several centimeters thick, fat, fluffy layer of foam. Massive Lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a Fanta-like, lemonade-ish sweetness. More subdued citric notes. Orange and Peach. Citrus and Lemon.

Light carbonation. Soft, smooth but quite thin texture. Lightly tingling.

Flavor is medium sweet followed by a slightly stronger citric bitterness. Aftertaste is lightly bitter and rather thin. Semi-dry finish.

I wonder what Christian Bale has to do with this brew apart from having a name that rhymes with “Ale”. Descent and gentle session IPA. A little thin on the palate and Flavor.

Intetesting interpretation, with a bit of a planty feel and some vegetables.

On tap at Hoppy Corner in Paris, France. 12.5 cl poured in a tasting glass. This session IPA shows some citrusy notes andfloral notes. The balance is okay, the beer is enjoyable

From Zombier. In Teku glass. Playing GooCubelets The Void. Bbf 1 May 2017 (my fault) but pretty good still. Slightly orangey and resinous. Strongly bitter. Very good feel and body for such low abv. Low on foam
