Bottle from La Cave à Bières, Yverdon-les-Bains; bb 22/09/2015
Cloudy but bright light amber color, medium sized compact head. Very nice aroma of fruity hops; sweet oranges, light cedar, plums, mango. Dry mouthfeel, weaker than expected; the malt profile is simple; strong bitterness, strong resiny hops, a bit fruity; too much yeast, and some vegetables.
Nice beer, a bit too dirty.

330mL bottle, pours an opaque dark orange with a small off-white head. Nose is very malty and yeasty, with caramel malts, yeast, and some earthy hops. Flavour is quite odd, with earthy hops, muted muffled yeasty notes, and earthy bready malt. Very confused flavours, with a very yeasty, dry bready finish that doesn't sit too well. Doesn't emulate its North American counterparts too skillfully. It's okay, but nothing impressive.

bottle from Bièrerie Illkirch-Graffenstaden. Hazy golden, with a white head. Intensive aroma of hops, tropcial fruit. Full-bodied, intensive malty base that delivers loads of delicious fruity hops. Slightly grassy and resine, but mainly with tropical fruit flavours.

Bouteille 33cl, merci Pierre T. , BB 11/03/2015. Dorée presque ambrée devenant trouble sur la fin, col épais crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme est houblonné frais avec ce relent américain et australien, notes tropicales et de pamplemousse. Palais est houblonné, malt pâle, cara assez léger. Note fruitée, agrumes et tropical, petite note herbacée rappelant le pin avec une fin de bouche qui oscille vers un léger orangé.

Hazy orange beer under a very good big-bubbled orangeish cream head, quite stable, leaving shards of lace. End of bottle some vicious UFO’s. Fruity, citrussy hopnose; citruspeel mainly, grapefruit, mandarine(peel). Ever so slightly catty. Bitter, hoppy, but with a nice sweet-ish underbuild, bit caramelly. Orangemarmalade. Hints at orangecookies retronasal, where the bitterness is getting more mild, if with a metallic tang. Well-bodied, very slick to oily, well-carbonated. Very good IPA, maybe just a tad too light for a true Imperial IPA.
