blankboy (4437) - Toronto, - OCT 26, 2009
Bottle [12oz] shared with garthicus, HogTownHarry, biegaman & swoopjones -- c/o swoopjones . Pours a clear pale gold with no head. Nice aroma, lots of resiny hops along with some yeast and spices. Slightly watery flavour of citrus hops, yeast and fruit and with a long bitter finish. Average to medium bodied. Pretty good stuff.

Scopey (1659) - Croydon, Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 8, 2012
Bottle thanks to cgarvieuk. It pours straw yellow, with a big foamy white head. The nose is red grape, sweet grapefruit, pineapple, leaf and some spice (particularly pepper). The taste is hay, straw, grass, leaf, pine, citrus pith, grapefruit and some spice, with a very, very dry finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Pretty good, but perhaps a bit too dry.

Keg at brewdog edinburgh, march 2011 Thought I’d already rated this! Similar to regular punk but with a softer finish due to yeast esters

NoiZe (2325) - Amersfoort, NETHERLANDS - MAR 25, 2011
Thnx Meerbier. Clear golden colored brew. Nice floral hops in the aroma. Flavor has a mild bitterness with a good bitter aftertaste. Crisp, some yeasty sourness. Just ok.

dantheman278 (975) - SCOTLAND - MAR 16, 2011
Keg at BrewDog Edinburgh! Pours a hazy golden amber. Some punk IPA citrus, but more subtle apricot, mango and hay. Taste is smooth and buttery, earthy hops kick in on the aftertaste. Good contrast between the hops and the yeast. Really nice.

One of the few Belgian IPA’s that I think works out alright. Big earthy hops play off of the rich Belgian yeasty-ness. Fairly rich flavor. Not half bad.
