X2 - Nynäshamn Indianviken Pale Ale

This is Nynäshamn version of an IPA, and what a version it is!
The nose is big, with its heart on its sleeves, with notes of burn almonds, fugde, sweet flowers and that intriguing scent of lavatory detergent...:-) Very deep, very unique and very, very good!
The taste is big bodied with lovely bitterness and notes of sweet yellow fruit and a touch of milk chocolate. Long and flavourfull. This is a very personal beer, that I just love, and have from its start!

96p   (tasted from cask - 2010/10)

No 16 - La Goudale

A cool, withdrawn nose with some notes of gravel, lemons and a touch of sulphur. Somewhat anemic on the nose, even when it got warmer in the glas.
The taste is much better with creamy yellow fruit, some almonds and dried pears. Long and persisent finish with a nice warm feeling. What a diference between nose and taste!

86p   (tasted from bottle - 2010/10)
