Draft @ Moeder Lambic Original, Irish Craft Beer #1, courtesy of Pierre T and shared with 77ships. Orange, col fin blanc-cassé. Arôme au nez houblonné, note tropicale avec ce rétro yaourt fraise, houblon surfermenté et type C. Palais est léger malté, plaisant sur un bon houblonné fruité et tropical laissant passer un côté américain côté ouest. Base malt en retrait tirant un peu sur le pâle et finemetn biscuité. En l’état, le tout garde un profil houblonné qui est mal mis en avant avec ce côté de fermentation/levure trop présent.

THANKS! Sampled draft @ Moeder Lambiek Original. Clear golden, fluffy white head. Nose is milky, farmland dank hops, some raw hops. Taste is too milky, peach pine, white bread sugar, faint dank hops. Milky & bit sweet body. Too milky & sweet for what it is but not that bad.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Utobeer. Pours clear, rich gold with a frothy, white head. The nose holds diesel, orange, some lightly toasted pale malts, pine. Medium sweet flavour with faintly toasty biscuits, citrus rind, light oily pine, hints of piss, earth, grass. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Moderately resinous on the finish, with more pine, bitter grass, pale bread, nice ripening orange, tangerine, citrus rind. Pretty solid overall. Nicely dynamic hop character.

Bottle from Soho Wine at home. Hazy golden amber pour - bright though not dull. Aroma is bright fruity hops - apple, mango - some cereal malt. Nice. Taste is rich, bitter, much bigger than anticipated. Again fruity hops. Good amount of bitterness. Really rich palate. Head is actually quite thick and dense too. The Irishness makes me think it looks like and IPA with the body of a Guinness. Have had similar IPAs that are much duller is taste and aroma - this isn't. Really solid IPA. Would definitely get again.
