In pursuit of twisting classicism with new flavors, we were looking in the jungle. The result is a Double IPA dry hopped with Chinook, HBC 692, Barbe Rouge and finished with Amazonian guarana to savage it up!

Hazy, golden color and a white head. Overripe tropical fruit, caramel, sweetness. Taste follows the nose. Sweet tropical fruits, well hidden alcohol. Nice work guys

Flaska från Etre Gourmete. Aningen disig trög bärnstensfärgad vätska med lågt medelhögt skum som lämnar mycket rester. Doft av söt övermogen tropisk frukt, nektar, honung, marmelad, och potent humle. Ganska kladdig vätska. Smaken är som doften, men med en lätt skitig citruzestig beska som matchar bra. De har laddad på bra och smakerna spretar lite men håller ihop tillräckligt för att funka. Ganska kladdig vätska. Maffig och god.

Bottle picked up from Etre Gourmet, Grez-Doiceau, Belgium and consumed at home, Wednesday 19th August 2020 cooking a very lazy, Fish Fingers, Chips and Mushy Peas. Pours dark amber with an off white head, soft mouthfeel, hoppiness very apparent. I am unsure what Guarana is so cannot properly explain what that is about, I tend to get citrus, bitterness and an underlying big malty belly. Good.

8/VIII/20 - 33cl bottle from Au Village Gourmand (Dinant) @ my Social Distancing BBQ, BB: V/2021 (2020-745)

Clear orange beer, small irregular off-white head, little stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: bit soapy, tropical fruits, dank notes, sticky hops, lots of caramel malts. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice bitterness, caramel, fruity touch, bit sweet. Aftertaste: sweet, caramel malts, hoppy as well, resinous, alcohol notes, very old school American DIPA from the earlier days of craft beer. Love it!

Bouteille 33cl, BB 05/2021, lot#005/20.
Orange léger, col blanc-cassé fin crémeux.
Arôme est fin houblonné, fines effluves de pin et herbacé en retrait. Guarana, je suppose est là - sans avoir goûté cela auparavant. Malté arrive en rétro-nasal et apporte une bonne balance - le tout reste au profit des houblons.
Palais est malté pâle, caramel, houblonné plaisant sur un effet un peu côte ouest.
Agrumes et finement herbacé, note de pin, effervescence moyenne - faible qui offre aux houblons de quoi briller. Fini est légèrement sec avec un petit résiduel de malts et levure. Guarana semble plus en retrait - j'ai lu son côté très âpre qui ne se retrouve pas trop sur cette bière.

One of Atrium’s newest beers, a DIPA flavoured with guarana, a South American plant species, the seeds of which have been used locally for centuries as a stimulant (and in our time even in soft drinks) because of its high concentrations of caffeine. Thick and frothy, snow white, lightly lacing, mousy head on a misty amber-orange beer with glowing coppery hue, turning a bit more ‘dirty-orangey’ with sediment. Lovely, expressive aroma of fresh orange peel, paprika powder, ‘meloenjenever’, Grand Marnier, dry biscuit, chorizo, candied pineapple, caramel, gin, pepper. Cleanly sweet onset, orange candy with a dash of melon, softishly carbonated with a vinous, thickly oily body; thick caramelly and biscuity malt sweetness in the middle with an even somewhat sticky marmalade-like side effect, but balanced by a long, peppery, spicy finish, offering orange zest and candied mango effects retronasally and, combined with the alcohol, a Grand Marnier-ish effect on the root of the tongue; lots of old-fashioned citrusy hop bitterness lingers, while a subtle meaty touch of fried barbecue sausages adds some complexity. The guarana could account for part of the flavour – a almost Red Bull-like ‘echo’ lurks in the background – but did not truly create a stimulating effect, other than the excitement of being confronted with a really good DIPA, reminiscent of the style’s earlier days. I adore this kind of IPAs – this is one of Atrium’s very best creations to me so far.
