Glouglouburp (4784) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - APR 6, 2010
In short: A tasty well malted resinous bitter IPA. Good session brew.
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Cloudy golden blonde body topped by a small persistent off-white head
In long: The nose is light with faint notes of grassy hops. Lots of cereals. Sweetness flavor is mostly honey with notes of caramel. Hops have a strong grassy and resinous character with notes of citrus fruits and pine tree. Bitterness with medium-high. Body is oily, a bit too much so. The nose is a bit weak but the beer is quite flavourful in mouth. Single hop IPAs is the coolest new trend since Facebook. Gotta go with the time, I’m drinking single hop IPAs and getting ready to open a Facebook account.



What?




Tweeter is the new “in” thing?!?!?

A hazy golden IPA with a thick light off white head. A light subdued herbal hops aroma with caramel mlat and strawberries. In mouth, a smooth herbaceous hops, with crisp light tingling sensations in mouth, very classy. Very British. On tap at brewpub, March 17 2010.
