It started out as a Belgo-American menage a trois, but then the brewers arrived and transformed the trans-oceanic affair into a beery lover pentangle. The collaborative minds at Louisville Beer Store, De Struise Brouwers and New Albanian Brewing Company offer this, a willfully disobedient Blonde India Pale Ale with a hop on her shoulder.

Bottle thanks to Josh. Pours a hazy golden yellow with a white head that lasts throughout the beer and laces nicely. Aroma has a combination of flora and pine with a good amount of yeast and sweet grains backing. Flavor has a good amount of pine with a bit of sweet grains backing and a bit of floral and yeast notes to round out the beer.

Bottle mailed by Tyler, given to Urbain, who generously shared it with us over a spectacular barbecue. Cloudy yellow color, medium white head. Great citrus aroma with a bit of freshly cut grass. Taste has lemon and grapefruit with a bit of bread. Nice stuff.

Bottle. Golden body with a huge, pillowy white head, slowly diminishing. Nose is citrusy with grapefruit and orange notes, pine, toasted grain and a hint of caramel. The flavor is moderately sweet and ightly to moderately bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. The bitterness lingers a long time. Medium body, watery texture and lively carbonation. Nice spicy hop taste that’s somewhat muted by some unclean huskiness and grain flavors. Still, this is an enjoyable IPA.

Thanks Travlr for the share, 4th of July at Struise. Couleur est dorée avec un léger trouble, col est épais et blanc. Arôme est agrémenté par ce mélange subtile belge et américain. Je note le côté levure belge venant de Struise avec l’ajout de houblons américain, notamment Cascade et Simcoe donnant un arôme citronné avec une touche de pin/herbacé. Le palais est dans la même lignée, note citron, pin pour un palais fruité, la levure donne un fini épais en bouche, dans le style IPA avec cette petite touche belge. Les houblons donnent aussi un aspect sauvage mélangeant une présence de forêt de pins avec qcq agrumes.
