Hey everyone!
Today, I'm reviewing a Swedish beer called Sitting Bulldog IPA from the brewery Gotlands Bryggeri. It's located in Visby on an island called Gotland. I have never been to Gotland myself, but I've heard it's a very beautiful place. If I ever go there, I'll definitely visit the brewery!
Some time ago, I actually tasted their stout beer (Wisby Stout)! It was delicious! Let's see if I like this one too!
Gotlands Bryggeri was founded in 1995 by Johan Spendrup. The brewery is a subsidiary of the Swedish brewery group Spendrups Bryggeriaktiebolag. They brewed their first beer called Wisby Klosteröl in 1995.
In 2006, 200,000 liters of wort was brewed in the brewery and there were plans to expand the production even further. In 2015 they had 10 employees and according to untappd.com, they have brewed 96 different beers in total.

Appearance: amber color with a small white head.
Smell: citrus, caramel, grass.
Mouthfeel: medium body, medium carbonation.
Taste: sweet malty, citrus, grass, taste reflects the aroma.
A bit boring and lame for an IPA. It has a low bitterness level and a very short aftertaste. Actually, it has a quite malty character. So IMO it's more like an ESB than an IPA.
I like the color of the beer, a very beautiful reddish amber color. I also like the shape of the bottle and the label! Cool Bulldog! ;)
But still, I'm a little bit disappointed! I will give it a rating 2.75 out of 5. Drinkable but I wouldn't buy it again!
