Draught @ Mondial de la bière Montréal 2015, Montréal, QC
Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt, grass, citrus, peach and orange. Taste is medium sweet and medium bitter with a long slightly dry, peach, orange and citrus finish. Body is medium, texture is thin to oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle - Some grainy malts and sweet caramel and pine notes. Cloudy gold with a rich white head. Grainy malts, some woody notes and a piney dry finish. Mellow and easy drinking.

Visuellement, on pourrait se méprendre avec une blanche et c’est vraiment très peu effervescent... Au nez, il n’y a que le pamplemousse blanc et c’est la même chose au goût. C’est si intense ce goût d’agrumes que ça masque tout le reste (et je suis un amateur du style)... Meilleure chance la prochaine fois; j’en ai acheté une caisse ;-(

Purchased at an IGA in Gatineau, QC. Pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a creamy-frothy, slightly off-white head that stays long and gives out chunky-fluffy lacing. Aromas of fresh hops which I like. Grapefruit, grass, pine notes and eventually hints of tropical fruits. The taste starts on a not too crazy bitterness, but above average, leading into the grain. Seems to get more and more bitter as it goes. Nice dryness in the finish. Again, some decent exotic fruits. This is a pretty good IPA.

Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a medium size foamy head with OK retention and some light lacing. Aroma of light citrus hoppy notes with some hints of tropical fruits. Taste is also dominated by citrusy notes with light tropical fruit notes with a light sweet malt base. Body is about average with OK carbonation. Not bad but I was expecting more floral hoppy notes with more pronounced hoppy notes of Citra and Bravo.

Bouteille 341ml. Couleur jaune-orangée pâle, mousse blanche crémeuse et tenace laissant une dentelle évasive. Arôme de pamplemousse, malt pâle, houblon résineux, écorce de citron. Goût de pamplemousse, citron, houblon résineux, amertume élevée, côté floral, malt en fin de bouche. Carbonatation moyenne, corps moyen.

En fût au Brasseurs de Montréal St-Denis lors du Rallye Bières et Plaisirs 2014. Couleur jaune voilée mousse blanche. Arôme d’agrumes, malt mielleux, citron. Goût d’agrumes, malt pâle, houblon résineux, amertume moyenne-élevée. Carbonatation moyenne, corps moyen. (8/4/8/4/16)

A hazed golden amber ipa with a thick frothy lacing white head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with loads of grassy floral hops, resinous, grapefruit, classic. In mouth, a sweet fruity biscuit malt with grassy floral hops, pink grapefruit pulp, classic and pleasing.

IPA 6.8% a cloudy light copper makes it seem more wheat ale than IPA at first glance. Wonderful lacing that clings to the glass as you finish off your beer. It has a great hop bouquet - pine bark, pine needles, resin, juicy fruits very tasty. It is medium bodied with a soft round carbonation and a palate cleansing/tongue scraping bitter finish. The taste isn’t as complex as the aroma but it is a solid hoppy pine with a decent surporting maltiness. A solid IPA, they just need to work on their clarity.
