33cl from Mi-Orge Mi-Houblon. It pours an orange amber in colour with not much head. Aroma of passion fruits and caramel. Medium carbonation and nice body. The flavour goes from a quite bitter to a sweet one, and turns bitter again and astringent in the end. A nice beer.

Vera session beer da bere e ribere. A mio parere forse la migliore ducato per la sua semplicità e per l’aroma pulito. Di un bel dorato carico, schiuma mediamente persistente, profumo e gusto eccezionali di luppoli americani(frutta tropicale) in dry hopping(cascade?) paragonabile a un infusione fatta all’istante nel bicchiere, intensi e persistenti. Amaro contenuto al punto giusto che la rende adatta anche ai non amanti del genere.

Pours orange with little head or lacing. Medium hazy. Nose is sweet candy and some tropical fruit. Aromas are yeasty pretty heavy fruity for the style, some cereal and some grassy hops. Tastes are medium sweet and medium bitter. Body is on the full side. Nice enough beer maybe a bit too sweet but I’d have it again.

Orange color with 1 finger white head. Aroma of some tropical fruits, orange peel, basil, sugary note. Taste is light sweet, light bitter. Honey flavor. Light to medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Good IPA but not really bitter.

Bottle 330ml.

Unclear medium orange orange colour with a large, frothy to creamy, good lacing, mostly to fully lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, caramel, moderate to heavy hoppy, orange - citrus, mandarin, fresh mandarin. Flavour is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration, hoppy, fruity, citrus - orange, warm citrus, pine, dry. IMO very nice and good balanced. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20121217]

Aroma a fresh fruity hops with a little yeasty tartness, very little but enough to make it very refreshing. Amber hazy with big head. Not too bitter, quite balanced and medium bodied. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle - 330ml. Beautiful hazy body with a thick off-white foamy head. Fresh hoppy aroma with malty, piney, and citrusy hints. Its sharp hoppy taste carries bready and citrusy notes. Ends with a decent bitter/herbal finish. Good IPA.
