Cloudy rust orange with a fluffy head, some floaties. Really strong fruity aroma - loads of guava, passionfruit, peach and pineapple. Taste is quite sweet with some green grassy hops. Really interesting and good beer.

The beer pours a cloudy straw color. The nose is tropical fruit, passion fruit, and floral star bursts. The pallet starts with a floral herbaceous ness with apricot and star fruit, in the middle is an off dryness an finishes with apricot and papaya. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Cloudy orange with a small pale head and some suspended particles. Aroma is guava, passionfruit, pineapple, citrus zest. Slightly syrupy mouthfeel, lots of sweet fruity background with a touch of bitterness in the finish. Taste is guava, passionfruit, orange juice, caramel, ruby grapefruit and just a hint of bergamot. Tasty.

12 oz bottle shared by jsprime. Hazed murky orange with a very small white head. Aroma of earl grey tea and weak ipa, would be better I the hops were more punchy. The flavour is similar, earl grey steep in weak ipa. It’s unique but nothing special, I don’t get the love for this one.

Belle couleur pêche trouble, effervescence qui semble très timide ; épaisse et odorante (fruits tropicaux, houblons divers, sucre, etc.). Au goût, elle démontre dès l’entrée en matière une complexité bienvenue : après une première attaque amère, les sucres se mettent de la partie, puis les fruits en finale avant de ravoir du houblon en fermeture. Une des IPA les plus originales sur le marché, elle a aussi le mérite d’être très réussie, dans une branche brassicole où tout le monde semble se copier l’un l’autre depuis quelques temps. Une belle découverte.

Thanks, Tommy. Quite attractive light amber with foamy white head and nice lacing. Vibrant aroma of sweet citrus. Taste is sweet at first, bitter aftertaste, and hints of tea and guava, as mentioned in the description. Unique and tasty.

bottle with Johnsense. cloudy gold with white lacing. fruity-funky nose, tea and guava flavours pleasantly clashing. medium body with low carbonation. sweet juicy finish

Hazy dark gold pour, massive white head leaving clouds of lace. Beautuful aroma, Grapegruit, passionfruit, guava, tangerine. The Nelson hop comes through on this one - Citrus/Tropical fruits up front, grapefruit and tangerine peel, piney, guava, with nothing overpowering. if there’s Earl Grey in this I’m getting hints of it in the back. Medium body. Probably the best IPA to come out of Quebec.

Robe dorée, trouble. Très odorante, arômes floraux et agrumeux, légère en bouche. Puissante amertume, notes de thé earl grey, longue finale végétale.

Bottle acquired at Epicerie au Coin Duluth. Pours a orange tinged gold, with a nice thick white head. Aroma: Grapefruit, pinapple. citrus. Nice malt backbone, lively mouthfeel. What sets this beer apart though is its truly sublime balance. The hop bitterness is perfectly accentuated by the sweetness from the guava and the earl grey. Super drinkable, super enjoyable IPA. If you’re looking for a huge hop bomb, this isn’t the beer for you; but this is a very sessionable, delicious beer that is easy on the palate.
