What happens when a lover of quality beer decides to make a beer that has nothing to do with the industrial beer we have in mass production?
At the same time, he is infatuated with the world of robots and robotics, the kind we saw in movies and cartoons in the 80s of the last century?
Well, nothing unusual, for such a situation 🙂
A brewery called Robocraft was born, with the message "Robots are coming, join the Robolution"
Since 2021, when Robocraft Brewery started producing beer, with the highest quality hops and malts from all over the world, they have released 16 different beers on the market.
All these beers are smooth and balanced because the fermentation process lasts for 40 days, during which complete fermentation is achieved.
Out of those 16, I found 4 in the market.
I got a little confused when I saw what the beer styles were.
I asked beer lovers in the #Beer community in this post, and got instructions to stick to.
The only thing is that I still haven't found an adequate glass for drinking IPA beer at home.
For the next #BeerSaturday, I will look for suitable glass, and now I will taste from the branded glass I have🙂
Of these 4, the choice fell on Milkshake IPA quite by chance.
On Saturday, I was walking along the path of Belgrade's Ada Ciganlija lake when I saw Nancy's ice cream stand.
And it was that stand, and the ice cream that I ate that directed me to Nancy's Milkshake IPA beer, created by the synergy of Robocraft Brewery and Nancy's ice cream maker.
The most recognizable Nancy's vanilla ice cream, paired with an IPA beer...
So let's try.
Vanilla Ice Cream Milkshale IPA
Light Ale, unfiltered, unpasteurized beer with 7% alcohol containing barley malt gluten, golden colour, and IBU 62.
When you open the can and pour this beer into a glass, there is no vanilla smell even in the tags.
The refreshing smell of hoppy citrus notes predominates.
And a beautiful golden colour.
The foam is two fingers thick but has a weak hold, just enough so that you can feel the foamy aroma of vanilla ice cream in it at the first sip.
If you continue to drink immediately, that's all the vanilla flavour you'll taste.
Moderately bitter beer, not overly carbonated.
After drinking a few sips, the nice taste of hops lingers in the mouth.
If you take a break between sips (after 3 minutes), each subsequent sip with such intervals will bring the taste of vanilla ice cream to your mouth. As for the smell, only when the glass is half empty can you smell the sweet smell of vanilla left on the rim of the glass.
In the end, an interesting combination of IPA hoppy beer and vanilla ice cream.
This beer should not be drunk when you are thirsty because its beauty lies in sipping slowly. That's the only way you can feel all the flavours that dominate it.
Excellent choice, and my thanks to the beer drinker from the Czechia who advised me to drink these 4 beers individually in order to feel all the flavours from each can.
I will continue the same with the remaining three cans.
Which one should I try next?
Classic India Pale Ale, Double IPA or Red IPA?
Cheers 🍻
