3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20Serving: Draft at Fire Works Leesburg. Hazy amber pour. Lots of pine resin in the nose. The flavor follows suit with underlying herbal and tropical notes. Just a hint of malt sweetness evens things out. A solid IIPA, but not quite mind blowing.

I had no idea this was actually a 10% whopper. I thought it was a big, chewy IPA but it was so drinkable I didn’t suspect it was so powerful. Glad I didn’t have too much. Good hop, malt balance.

Draft @ Hoppy Loft.
Orangée, col blanc crémeux moyen.
Arôme est malté, note de drêche avec un houblon qui reste modéré.
Le côté Sauvin reste assez discret contribuant à cet ajout fruité et herbacé typique.
Palais est malté avec un léger côté grillé-caramel pour un fruité et cette signature de Sauvin qui se retrouve noyé dans une marée de malts.
Bière reste trop monodimensionnelle avec un profil alcoolisé qui est, pour moi, trop important pour mettre en avant le caractère du Nelson Sauvin.

Thx! to Antoine. Draft @ Delirium Hoppy Loft. Hazy orange with a big creamy white head. Nose is bit oddly this thick, fruity & floral syrupy stuff, lots of syrup, floral with some white grapes,… Taste is very syrupy white grapes, hint corn, spices, sweet malts, fruity, bitter floral, huge malts,… Body is thick & syrupy,.. Not bad & good for Flying Dog I suppose – still Flying Dog without having the label in front of you is not really the same – reference to draft vs. bottle.

Tydlig Nelson Sauvin, utan att bli för skarp. Det här är både gott och lättdrucket tycker jag.

Tap @ the Mason. Pours slightly hazy, bright orange, big fluffy head. Good retention and lacing. Sharp, bitter hop nose, resiny, with biscuit notes. Almost a twinge of aged cheddar. Ripe citrus punch up front, bitter, with toasted, nutty tones. Hint of spice. Odd duck, not bad.
