IPA from one of the countless new Dutch microbreweries, this one apparently in Tilburg; thanks Craftmember for sharing at Gents Bierfestival. Egg-white, moussy, medium thick, opening head, clear orange gold beer with peachy hue. Aroma of freshly squeezed orange juice, sweet red onions, pink grapefruit, dough, mango peel. Fruity onset, colourful mango, green banana and pineapple notes, softish carb, supple body, slick wheatiness paired with 'clean' white breadiness; aromatically New World hoppy finish, citrusy and zesty with a piney side to it, providing lasting, yet not overly harsh bitterness. An "international IPA" in between old school style and modern sweeter 'tropicalness' like so many IPAs in this day and age, and within that premise, a well-executed one.

Thanks to sharing RB crew. Sampled 330 ml. bottle @ Gents Bierfestival 2018. Orange, little creamy white head. Nose is orange, grain, bread, yeast,.. Taste is medicinal grapefruit IPA, overall grainy, yeast,.. Medicinal, sweetish, yeast, definitely not what I hoped for.

18/VIII/18 - sample @ Gents Bierfestival - BB: n/a (2018-1045) Thanks to the Belgian Ratebeer crew for sharing today's beers!

Clear orange beer, creamy off-white to yellow head, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: pretty fruity, floral, bit sweet, some sulphur. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: bitter start, some grapefruit, hoppy touch, bit resinous, sticky hops. Aftertaste: bitter, resinous, hoppy, alcohol burn, or is it a hop burn? Also a bit oxidized, malty and honey notes.

Hazy orange colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour do have a lot of citrus bitter hop. Very refreshing.

0.33 l bottle from 'Het Biermoment', bottled in June 2017. Almost clear, orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, stable, white head. Sweetish, quite fruity, moderately resiny and slightly grassy aroma of grapefruit, passion fruit, mango and some pine. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, rather fruity, slightly resiny taste of grapefruit, mango and passion fruit, followed by a medium long, rather dry-bitter, moderately resiny and slightly grassy finish with lots of grapefruit. Medium body, slightly creamy and moderately effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Way better than expected, especially considering its bottling date, but I'm still not the biggest fan of fruit IPA's.

Bottle @ home. Hazy orange golden color, medium to full sized stable and long lasting white head. Citrus aroma, loads of grapefruit. Taste lightly malts, hops, again loads of grapefruit, a bit sharp citrus nd citrus bitter. Definitely grapefruit as the name of the beer already says. But although I live grapefruit normally and I think this is quite well brewed, I hereby officially declare not to be a fan of beers loaded with grapefruit. It just becomes too (sharp) citrussy bitter in a way I dislike somehow.
