4 pack - 10$ belle couleur, mais la robe ne reste pas. mon verre n’a aucune marque de broue. la texture est moyenne en bouche, mais sans plus. Il s’agit d’une bière de qualité, mais pas ma préférée d’une brasserie incroyable.

Clear copper pour with a frotht white head. Fruity hop aroma. Lovely fruit hop flavour. Malt with hint of spice. Very tasty, enjoyable beer.

Si comme un de mes collègues, vous trouvez qu’une Alexander keith est une bière forte, sauvez-vous en courant à la vue de cette chaman. L’arôme est extraordinaire de houblon frais, probablement dû au houblonnage à froid. Très floral. Forte amertume mais qui coule très bien. La mousse est correcte, mais fermez lez yeux et humez!

The beer poured a hazed golden orange colour with absolutely no head, but effervescence created a small ring higging the glass. Aroma is weak spices, citrus, caramel and grains. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with mild carbonation. Flavour is piney, citrusy, and grainy. A good beer, but I was hoping for more

Draft at Beer Revolution in Calgary. Clear golden amber color, fluffy white head. Aroma of tropical fruit, grass. Taste is bitter fruit, nice malt backbone.

Tap at Beer Revolution Craft Beer and Pizza Bar. Pours clear amber with a medium, frothy off-white head, medium retention with excellent lacing. Aroma is Northern Brewer hops, cookie and honey malt, mango and pineapple fruity esters. Flavor is heavy hops and bitterness, supporting malt, fruity esters, and a sweet finish. Medium body and carbonation.

Bottle – puts lightly hazed orange-amber ale in the glass – large puffy cap lasts and laces up the glass. Moderate carbonation. Aroma is toasty cereals over an amalgam of hop aromas; citrus, floral, grassy – some lush fruit tones as well….becomes more pungent as it warms. Very pleasant nose to this. Medium-heavy body but lighter and dryer in taste than the body and mouth feel suggests. Flavour is rich and definitely a pale ale on steroids – Big rush of hops and malts in good balance in the front side…..mid palate you get some complexity as fruit, bitter, resinous, malty, fruity flavours bend. – long silken rich finish with increased bittering. I was surprised at how well rounded and balanced this big pale ale is. Another top flight offering from DDC.

4-pack at the LCBO. Pours a clean, rich amber colour with a creamy, off-white head, that has great retention and thick foamy lace. Does not smell too hoppy at first pour, but the hop nose comes out eventually with spicy grass, citrus notes and a warming alcohol. No burning for the mouthfeel though. Nice cereal malts (barley) with the bitterness covering it, but not too excessively, giving a beautiful dryness. Hints of grapefruit, burnt caramel and grass. Nice difference on the style, with this Imperial Pale Ale, which is differently hopped than Impy IPAs.

Definitely an imp pale ale and not an IPA - just as they say. All the characteristics of a good pale, just ramped up.

Bière ambrée-cuivrée, limpide, avec un col de mousse moyen qui laisse une fine dentelle derrière. Nez de houblon légèrement métallique avec une grosse pointe sucrée. En bouche, le sucré n’est pas aussi puissant qu’anticipé. en fait les notes sucrées balancent bien avec la puissance du houblon. Un arrière-goût de caramel et – malheureusement – signent la finale.
