Quevillon (1518), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada May 31, 2007 Bu au Mondial 07. Blonde un peu foncée, peu de collet. Arome d’houblon faible et peu amère. Goût d’houblon sucré, peu fruité, pas tellement amère. StompBrockmore (300), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 27, 2007 12oz. bottle - pours dark, cloudly orange with a nice white head leaving thick lacing in the glass. Orange aroma, with yeast, and something candy’ish that I can’t quite put my finger on really. Spice as well. Good malt character as well, balancing and smoothing out the hops, while still allowing them to remain dominant and intense. Flavour is remarkably smooth for a dIPA, especially one with a 10.6% ABV. Full bodied, with a creamy and thick mouthfeel. Awesome beer from a great brewer. BREWMUSKCLES (1062), New Jersey, USA May 25, 2007 very strong and a hop lovers brew. unbalanced in it’s quest to assure hop superiority. yes powerful and bitter. somewhat fragrant but not particularly smooth. rated well in the class. malt profile...i think so. beerfinder1 (45), PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania, USA May 25, 2007 NIce aroma and great tasting IPA. Can’t drink too many of these because it wil knock your socks off. I would recomond this one alot. bryandhargrave (165), Richmond, Virginia, USA May 24, 2007 Updated: May 3, 2008Hooooooops. Great head. Stayed strong for most of the life of the glass. Very sticky. Leaving traces of the head all the way down the glass. Awesome flavour. Totally great hop presence. A very very slight haze. I love it. dra19 (89), Zeeland, Michigan, USA May 22, 2007 Pours golden with thick white head. Hoppy and citrus aroma. Taste is very smooth with strong hops. Hides the alcohol very well. dchmela (1406), Orlando, Florida, USA May 21, 2007 Pours with a perfect, thick white head and golden color. Looks absolutely beautiful in the glass even before you drink it. Aroma is of bursting hops with citrus and a little alcohol. I might have it too cold, but its so tasty I don’t want to wait. Strong hops in the taste with a little bit of malt to smooth it out. A really good DIPA that kicks your but with flavor, aroma, and alcohol. This was the beer style that I was looking for when I thought I had gone as far as i could with IPA’s. It gives you all that bursting hops flavor and a good kick in the butt because of the strength. Just a wonderful beer from a great brewery. jvmiller (532), Bel Air, Maryland, USA May 20, 2007 Updated: Oct 23, 2007Okay aroma, solid color with a thick viscosity. Taste is sweet malts, with strong and perhaps overpowering hops. Overall I thought it was good, but the bitterness wasn’t jiving with the rest of the beer.
