3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Corked bottle and served in my big ole Karmeliet tulip: Clean golden hue topped by a HUGE fluffy head and left spotty lace upon the glassware. The aroma has notes of grassy and herbal hops, slight dusty yeast esters, biscuity malts and a touch of apple and citrus. The taste is moderately (by Belgian standards) hoppy with a surprising peppery spice finish. A bit chalky and dry malt midsection that does take away some enjoyment for the overall palate. The mouth feel is as expected to be, very sprite and aggressive with a medicinal finish. Overall much better than the first time I tried this (of course I was also trashed when I had it the first time resulting in a deleted rating). Still, I am remissed to say that this is not worth the price of $9 a bottle.

3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
25.4 oz. bottle consumed on 5-11-12. Very pleasant, hoppy, perfumey, minerally, salty, sour, sharp, clean aroma features orange sherbet, lemon, chlorine, and soap scents. Pours a hazy gold/orange/brass with a large amount of uneven, foamy, nearly white head. Unique color. Produces good, thick, long-lasting lacing. Dry, bitter, astringent, sharp taste. A bit of lemon. Much less creaminess and fruitiness in the flavor than in the aroma, and that’s unfortunate. Medium body. Lively and frothy in the palate. Produces a bite in the back of the throat. Overall, Hopsinjoor is pretty good, but if it tasted more like it smelled, it could have been nearly great.
