Review: 33cl bottle of Oppigårds Indian Tribute: 6.6% vol.

Bought in Aldi Switzerland. Interesting logo on the long necked bottle, orange background and label with a pic of an elephant, simple but stylish, their “tribute to India”

On pour got a dark amber coloured beer with a decent sized white head that maintained well.

Good amount of carbonation and some lacing apparent.

A nice looking beer, looks alive and ready to be devoured! Loved the colour.

The smell is quite strong, a very lovely aroma smacking the senses full blast. Typical IPA aroma but the hops are so strong in this one, absolutely gorgeous, love it.

Intense earthy hops, citrus and tropical fruits on the nose, malts alive too, all perfectly balanced. Leaves a good impression, the smell, one of the best aromas off a beer in a long time. Truly powerful stuff on the nose, and all good.

Typical IPA taste and flavour in the taste, the fruits and malts, and the hops are prominent but all nice and very manageable.

A very tasty beer, crisp, sweet and all well balanced, and smooth enough for an IPA. The hops in particular are quite tasty.

A very nice beer to relax with and sit back and sip. Well balanced. Very good. Not the widest array of intense flavours and unique tastes, just the lingering Cascade hops really, but its good enough to enjoy. Low in bitterness but high in enjoyment!

Like it, solid and very enjoyable and will be returning……..
