Hop Gun - Brown Ale

At first glance, you would expect Camba Bavaria's Hop Gun to be a juicy India pale ale This type of beer is generally hoppy and does not hide its quality This fine beer from Chiemsee is, however, a dry-hopped brown ale, a cold-hopped brown ale The copper-red creation is brewed with Pilsner, Munich and caramel malts and hopped with Select, Simcoe and Amarillo hops The full 6.4% alcohol content is well integrated into the strong flavor profile

Hop Gun flows into the glass in a shimmering ruby-red brown hue and completes its handsome appearance with a fluffy crown of dense, ivory-colored foam A scent of dried apricots rises from the stable cap, Fresh hops round off the olfactory first impression harmoniously and awaken a thirst for beer The first sip emits a fruity aroma of apricot, peach and nectarine notes Green hop notes and a harmonious bitterness are added in the course of the drinking experience The brilliant finish brings delicate caramel and cranberry to the tongue

This successful full-bodied beer is a wonderful accompaniment to hearty dishes We imagine slowly braised lamb with bacon-fried beans served with a blob of buttery mashed potato, some herb butter and a sauce with wild mushrooms and thyme
