3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 JorisPPattyn (6728) - Antwerpen, - NOV 11, 2006
Good off-white head, fast gone over hazy straw to olive-coloured beer. Very nice hoppy nose, both EU as USA, hopbales, and yes, straw or hay. Fresh, hop-dominated taste, grapey but not citrussy, dry garden herbs and generally delicate-flowery - lime blossoms. Medium bodied, but refreshing. Extremely nice beer, delicate in the EU/USA combination. Let the imitators of USA IPA’s try this first, before blundering on.
2.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 suprchunk (1059) - Heinsberg, GERMANY - JAN 20, 2012
A slight-infected smelling gusher. A minty aroma behind a slight malt aroma. Caramel colored pour. Slight off-white head. Which is weird given the volcano that erupted after cracking the cap. A very sour bite overpowering a slight malt flavor. Caramel candy. Or butter if you will. Tangy, not bitter, just bad.

Cervesa del tot corrent. Per a mi no té res d’IPA. Fàcil de beure i sense complicacions, ni complexitats. Avorrida.

Light golden color with a modest head. The nose is very sweet - honeycomb and white grapes. The taste is sweet with a bitter finish. The moutfeel a bit sugary. I like this, though it feels a bit hurried.

simple blonde beer, but with a twist: some more fruity hoppyness in both aroma (sour) and taste (sour/sweet) than you’d expect... some apple in there too, nice lightbodied tasteful beer
