The 4th friend to share with us his beer list 13/14 is Alvin.
Alvin is one of 5 founding members of Taps beer bar KL, by far the only dedicated craft beer bar in KL with many beers both on taps and bottles. A marathon runner, this guy don't seem to have any beer belly, but don't be fooled, Alvin certainly has had many beers passed through the system than any average drinkers would have.
#第四位分享13/14尝味心得的是本地人,ALVIN是吉隆坡至今唯一一家全CRAFT BEER专卖酒吧的5位创办人之一。也是马拉松选手的他可说完全没有啤酒肚,外表一点也看不出来是赏味过很多佳酿的品酒人。以下是他的分享.
Telling us in his own words, here's the list from Alvin:-
An India Pale Ale (IPA) that I wouldn’t mind drinking every day.
Yeastie
Boys (New Zealand) - Gunnamatta IPA
Gunnamatta
IPA brewed with Earl Grey tea. This beer was an experimental beer which The
Yeastie Boys brewed for a beer event in Australia and the 1st time I
had this was a year and a half ago. The Gunnamatta IPA would definitely be my
first order at a bar if they have it. It has that light citrus aroma that all
IPA’s would but when it hits the tongue there’s this sudden tea taste with abit
of hoppiness at the end coupled with the dry finish that a cup of tea would
give you.
A Porter or Stout that I wouldn’t mind drinking every day.
TO
OL Brewery (Denmark) – Black Ball Porter
Easily one of the nicest and most well rounded porters that I’ve come across. Roasted malts and a good balance between the caramel, chocolate malts with a hoppy ending. The brewery insists that this is a hoppy porter not a black IPA. At 7.1% this is definitelya nice porter to finish off a night. A porter that I would drink as my last drink before crawling into bed.
#来自丹麦的黑色佳酿,很好的均衡了啤酒的焦糖,巧克力和微苦。不介意每天喝。
An Imperial Stout that I wouldn’t
mind having on any given day.
Nogne
O (Norway) – Dark Horizon 3rd Edition
Had
it in Melbourne a few months ago and up until today I still think about it with
a slight smile on my face. We paid $40 AUD for a 250ml bottle but it was well
worth every single dollar. It was amazing and with these imperial stouts it
normally taste better when it gets warmer. Truly amazing. And right after we
had our first sip,we immediately email Kjetil (owner & brewmaster) to tell
him it was so one of the best. His reply? “I think the 4th edition
is better.”
#另一支来自北欧,挪威的"巨人"酿酒师KJETIL(品牌是NOGNE,巨人是身材)的黑色高酒精黑啤系列。Alvin品尝的是3号,酿酒师说今年推出的4号系列会更好!任何时候都可以喝的佳作。

A beer that I would share with people.
Mikkeller
(Denmark) – Beer Geek Brunch Weasel
taste!
#另一位丹麦魔术师MIKELLER酿制的“猫屎”咖啡味黑啤。跟上面那瓶高酒精瓶子一样,这样的佳酿由冷到稍温的时候会变化,口感更佳。适合跟朋友分享的瓶子。
Other beers which I don’t mind having
anytime.(任何时候都能喝的其他瓶子)
Mountain Goat IPA
One of the easiest
drinking IPA in my opinion. Hoppy at the back but with a nice amount of citrus
and caramel aroma.
#来自澳洲酿酒师的瓶子。属于很容易入口的微苦带柑橘清新味的IPA。
Hitachino Red Rice Ale
Brewed with Japanese
Akagome Rice. Which is actually a purple rice but after polishing it turns red.
There’s a very nice strawberry aroma and taste to it with a strong finish which
is almost like a Japanese Sake.
#加入日本赤米酿制的“米啤酒”。有点像草莓味的日本清酒。来自日本的常陆野品牌瓶子。
Next up---final part of beer list 13/14 would see a friend from USA sharing his list....Kyle will be our 5th friend to share his bottles & wishes for 2014....
