A light colored, smooth drinking American IPA brewed with Simcoe, Chinook, and Citra hops. Flavors and aromas of citrus, tropical fruit, and pine are balanced by a hint of cereal sweetness from the use of twenty percent malted white wheat. Not overwhelmingly bitter, but great hop aromatics make this an IPA drinker’s IPA.

Bottle @ home. Hazy yellow golden color, medium sized white head that lasts for quite a while. Aroma is very hoppy, clean and crisp. Lovely. Taste malts, wheat, hops, lots of hops, nicely balanced between fruit and bitter hops and with a nice suitable bitter finish. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Nice!

Lightly hazy gold beer, short pale cream colour head. Palate is light and has a nice fine crispness. Light malts with a nice level of creamy sweetness. Spicy orange hops, pine and a whisper of tropical fruits. Light spicy finish. Very nicely done. Super drinkable.

33cl bottle. Pours a straw yellow with a modest white head that gives way to a thin lacing. Smells of citrus and tropical fruit hops. The taste is dominated by tropical fruits, mostly pineapple and mango, as well as some citrus and honey. Medium bodied, sticky pine-sweet aftertaste. Not bad.

Il gusto al naso riceve forti sensazioni di luppolo. L’intensità olfattiva è molto elevata e la persistenza olfattiva è considerevole. Il cappello di schiuma è persistente, a bollicine medie con carbonazione media. La consistenza del liquido è velata. La carbonazione è piatta. Il colore è giallo ambrato. Il corpo è strutturato ma duttile. L’amaro è carico. L’intensità gustativa è elevata e la persistenza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è godereccio. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo, lungo e complesso. Il retrogusto è intenso. In bocca l’aroma ha i sentori di miele, frutta secca, resina, abete rosso e agrumi.

Tap at the Delirium Hoppy Loft, Brussels. Poured a clear straw colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is grassy hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a bit nettle grass bucket palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.
