Bouteille de 66cl. Bière blonde dorée avec une légère teinte cuivrée, la mousse blanche colle aux parois de ce verre. Le nez est agréable avec ces notes de houblons frais et son léger malt caramel. C’est très invitant. La bouche est mordante, le houblon bien dosé, la base malté supporte le tout. La finale a une bonne amertume. Bien équilibré. 7/10

(66 cl) Une petite mousse résistante flotte sur un liquide à la robe ambrée. Une dentelle décore le verre. Au nez, les parfums fruités des houblons se choquent à une brise florale. Le malt signale une bonne présence avec son profil franchement grillé et modérément caramélisé. Au goût, les flaveurs des houblons dominent par leur côté aromatique et amérisant. Des aiguilles de pin finissent par piquer la langue. Les céréales maltées sont ici très timides : elles ne font qu’apaiser brièvement la force tranquille des houblons. La sensation en bouche se situe dans la normalité: le corps est moyen, le pétillement très doux et la texture bien huileuse. En finale, les houblons apportent de belles et bonnes morsures pleinement résineuses et justement longues.

In short: A basic, smooth, nourishing and refreshing fruity IPA. Enjoyable
How: From a bottle at Mondial de la Bière 2011
The look: Partly cloudy orange body topped by a small off-white head
In long: A nice smooth aromatic nose of fruity hops (apricots and oranges mainly) and some floral notes. Body has plenty of cake-malts and with the fruity hops signature it tasted like orange muffins. Also some lemongrass and a bit of dried yellowed grass in the after-taste. Mild tartness, mild bitterness. Fluffy lively mouthfeel. I enjoyed that beer more than I thought I would, nourishing yet refreshing. Bombay is the largest city of India and ironically your can hardly find a decent “India” Pale Ale over there. Weird. Also over there men don’t get to know their wives until after they marry them. Weird. No, wait, same thing here.
