Ambrée, col beige épais.
Arôme de houblon renfermé au caractère fruité allant vers le tropical
En bouche, même profile, houblon très présent donnant des notes de fruits avec en retrait un léger côté de pin. Malt reste en retrait et donne à la bière des notes de caramel et grillé. Agréable, et je retrouve là, le plaisir des IPA de la côte ouest.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Small rim of foam; slightly veiled amber-orange beer. Fruity, very hoppy, but also cats’ pee/valerian. Citrus, passion fruit, Passoã. Hopoils, bit of caramel/cake bottom. Long bitter finish. Quite slick, medium bodied, long hoppy lingering aftertaste. Average (meaning pretty good) IPA.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Hazy gold, decent sized sticky beige head. Aroma of biscuity malt, orange, woody earthy. Taste is nicely balanced but fairly malty with pine bitterness.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
650ml bottle pours a golden orangeish color with 3 fingers of white head with great retention and leaving some lovely lacing on the glass. Aroma is citrusy and earthy hops. Taste is citrusy and earthy hop bitterness balanced nicely with some malty sweetness. A great IPA with a medium body and spritzy carbonation leaving a nice tingle on the palate.

Loved this IPA! Great citrus aroma. Well balanced with just a kick of hops at the end. Perfect!

I love IPAs and I drink a lot of them. This is the best one I’ve had. Wonderful floral, citrus and even grapefruit aroma. Perfect balance of bitterness and malt. Fantastic dry hop finish!
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Clear dark golden color/ ivory head. Floral, citrus hop aromas. Medium bodied. Grapefruit, pine hoppy flavors on a solid pale malt base--good.
