A full-flavoured Belgian IPA. The bitterness is well integrated in true Belgian style with a pleasant kick at the end. Hopclassic is packed full of hop character and is super refreshing on the palate.

Can from Asda. Hazy pale golden body with a thick white head (it looks like Duvel). Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of white pepper, salted lemon and doughy bread. Flavour of lemon and straw with a tangy, peppery finish. Thin body with a watery, slightly oily texture. Soft fizz. A tasty, hoppy beer with a tangy yeast character. This is very good and much improved from when I last tried it (way back in 2013).

Hazy golden beer with a thick white head. Smells malty with a bit of fruit and something a little floral, maybe. Taste has a nice, savoury malt base too with some bittersweet fruit and grassy hop. Quite crisp and refreshing.

(Draught at Dynamo, Brussels, 19 Oct 2019) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with frothy white head. Malty, hoppy nose with peaches, bread and tropical fruit. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of bread, citrus, grain, grass, tropical fruit and a balanced grassy, herbal bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Tasty and well balanced. Nice one.

Brilliant white rocky head left a big froth on a hazy vivid golden still body. Bitter, pith & lemon aroma. Medium bodied, sharp on the palate with clean aft. Bitter hopped up tastes with lemon, confectionery, pith, melon & lemon. Tasty!

Tap at Fakin. Hazy golden-yellow body, white head. Big, estery aroma, peach, orange, some hops, light phenols. Smooth, heavy. Citric, lean taste, bergamot?, notes of tea, ends bitter and dry, very light tartness. Lacks body but it's nicely aromatic.

On tap at Fakin Craft Fest 2019. Unclear golden coloured, medium sized white to off-white head, yeast and mild citrus in the nose. Sweetish malty, light citrusy and fruity hoppy with notes of yeast and cereals. Light alcohol in the finish. Bit messy brew but ok.
