This modern DIPA is brewed with Maris Otter, Wheat, Carapils, Flaked Oats & Oat Malt. This fluffy malt foundation is just big enough to hold the hefty additions of Crosby Hops Comet, with a little Summit, Calypso & Idaho7 in a supporting role.

Médiocre cette DIPA de Galway Bay, et ce à la fois par sa structure et pas ses arômes. L'équilibre malt/houblon est très mal pensé, avec une base maltée recouvrant de trop l'amertume qui manque nettement de brillance. L'ensemble est lourd en bouche avec un sucre trop présent. Côté aromatique, le cocktail, herbes, mandarine, orange amère et savon n'a rien de vraiment charmeur. L'ensemble manque de variations de surcroît. Si la corpulence est bonne, la longueur est de plus très moyenne avec un final sans grand intérêt. Sur le visuel, nous sommes sur un blond pâle, légèrement voilé et quasiment sans mousse. Cette comète ne met pas le feu !

44cl can from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours orange gold, hazy, with fine white foam. Aroma is intensely fruity and citrus, stone fruit, even spiced. Body and carbonation are average. Essential oils dominate. Taste is so bitter it goes almost astringency. Final is highly aggressive and bitter. Overall, a true comet, a bomb.

Can. An unclear golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of hops, spices, and citrus fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, citrus fruits, spices, and malt, leading to a bitter finish.
