3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
15/06/2011 Brasserie 4:20 (tap). Ambrata intensa, viva, con schiuma morbida, pannosa liquida, poco persistente. Aroma intenso di malto caramellato con note pungenti di luppolo, agrumatissime. (limone, pompelmo, ananas). In bocca ha un bell’esordio dolciastro, di malto caramellato, perfettamente bilanciato con l’amaro agrumato del luppolo. Corpo medio, carbonazione corretta. Buona double IPA, gradevolissima e davvero ben fatta. Da provare.

Full of punchy tropical hops, mango, pineapple, sweet and juicy. Balanced by malt though so little in the way of residual bitterness. Prefer this to the IPA

Tap at CP&K. It pours hazy orange-amber with a thin foamy off-white head and low to moderate carbonation. The nose is resin, orange, mango and grapefruit. The taste is resin, wood, orange, mango, apricot, lemon, hay, bread and grass, with a long bitter-pine finish. There is some alcohol warmth towards the finish, but not that of a 9% beer. Medium bodied and oily mouth-feel. It’s nice to see a solid Eurpoean IIPA.
