Entering old rates. 2009 rate. Growler thanks to Tpd975 (Meadme) Couleur ambrée foncée, col beige/acajou, arôme est houblonné, épicé avec de belles senteurs de fleurs; surtout la lavande. En bouche, une base de l’IPA qui est ravivée par le très bon profile fleuri de la lavande et jasmin qui donnent en bouche un côté très frais. Cea se balance à perfection avec les épices du cèdre, le pin et les agrumes.

Growler courtesy dchmela. Holy smokes what a floral nose! Big lavender and general floweriness, with a little spicy hop, sweet grass and dandelion wine thrown in. Somewhat honeyed malts. Floral and grassy herbaceous flavors. Nice big bitter finish, a touch peppery.

Funky-looking growler shared by goldtwins - hazy dark copper - sudsy lace - earthy hop, grapefruit, and pine in the nose at first, followed by a complex mixture of wildflowers and dried herbs - full-bodied - the flavor is of a straightforward, tasty, dry ipa up front - this is followed by an explosion of added complexities - tangerine, rosemary, lavender, rosewater - a vast array of hard to place spices - a lot of floral character that works really well with the dry, bitter hops - ends warming - this is fantastic.

Pours copper with gold edges and off white head. The aroma is citrus sweet from hops to go along with solid malt sweet enhanced floral and lavender note goodness. I was expecting the aroma to be a load of perfumy flowers but it achieves a nice balance. The taste starts with smooth lavender moving into floral and then progressively sweeter with malts and citrus hop flavor. Cedar and citrus hop bitterness even out the sweetness into the finish leaving the palate somewhat refreshed and ready for more.
