From tap at Planet Oedipus ’17. Aroma is fruity hops with lots of zesty citrus, tropical notes, grapefruit. Flavour is light sweet with a dry bitter finish. A surprisingly fine French IPA, and Mont Salève has a knack for surprising me.

Hazy, yellow color and a nice white head. Nice tropical fruits with a decent bitterness. Fruity-floral hops and a nice dryish bitter finish. Very nice.

3/I/18 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ New Year's holiday (Ardennes) - BB: 6/XII/17, bottled: 18/VI/17 (2018-9)
Clear blond to orange beer, small creamy off-white head, little stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: pretty fruity, malty, some passion fruit, citrus, grapefruit touch. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very malty, bitter, bit oxidized, didn't notice the BB-date upon purchase, grains, hay. Aftertaste: very bitter, bit oxidized, mainly malt notes. Meh. Even for a 6 month old ipa, it's still pretty weak.
