A substantial ipa with sessionable ABV. A well laced solid white head on a golden body. The nose leads with dark honey, with malt and earthy hops. This session IPA definitely punches above its weight. Unusually, the hops are not just citrus, with earthy and floral elements rounding out a very pleasant bitterness. Dark malts with caramel and grain flavours and a rich and dense body for a 4.2%er makes this a real accomplishment.

Hazy copper, large white head. Citrus zest, lemon, grapefruit, light mouth feel, light carb, low bitterness. Slightly juicy, refreshing. Better than expected.

Clear golden colour with soapy head. Aroma and flavour are lightly grassy and have a little malt sweetness. Good but plain.

Pours deep gold into a tulip. Bright white head with good retention recedes to skim surface. Scallion, garlic and grass aromas. Sharp with sweet caramel, meringue and dusty yeast upfront turning to bitter earth in the lasting finish.

Bottle from La Fringale. Clear medium amber with a large fluffy off white head that hangs around and leaves patchy lace. Nose is herbal with some pine, caramel and some cereal. Flavour is a light sweet base for a moderate bitterness with grass, pine and light citrus and some mineral notes. Mouth is medium and slick with active carbonation. Despite the bitterness in the middle the finish is quite short and crisp . Refreshing. 7+/3/7+/3+/15

Typique du style, c’est assez mince en bouche. C’est plutôt malté, ce qui surprend. Ça goûte un bon mélange d’agrumes, d’abricots et de houblons frais, et ça laisse une belle sécheresse en finale. Bien faite mais peu hivernale ;-)

Bottle: Poured a bright amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light fruity ester with some citrusy hops notes and Belgian style malt notes. Taste is a mix of residual sugar notes with some fruity ester and some Belgian style malt with nice floral citrusy hoppy notes with limited bitterness. Body is full with good carbonation. Enjoyable with nice little Belgian spin on the style.
