After Brewing Aleganten från Vidderna some of the brewers at Westgota Nidbryggeri decided to go out, mix with common people and drink some commercial beer.

Avery The Maharaja Indian Imperial Pale Ale DSC00585
USA
ABV: 10.2%
Rating: 2

Very heavy alcohol taste. Nice scent but the bitterness is destroyed by the alcohol. Not good at all.

ABV: 6.8%
Rating: 3

A little lame but still balanced and drinkable IPA.

Also a lame one. Notes of canned corn but still pretty okay.

Canada
ABV: 6.5%
Rating: 4

Very Belgian in style even though it is an IPA. Well hopped and nice liquorice notes. Great balance between hops, sweetness and malt.

 

 

 

 

St. Bernadus Abt 12DSC00590
Belgium
ABV: 10.5%
Rating: 4

Nice taste of fresh bread, pleasant malty taste. One of the best Belgian strong dark ales probably only beaten by Westvleteren 12 and Abbaye des Rocs Brune.
