This is our unique version of an ancient style. A style as old as the ocean trade routes of the last centuries of Great Ships. Not as old as the equator they had to cross twice enroute, nor as old as the 10,000 miles or so of Di-Hydrogen Oxide and Sodium upon which they sailed, but older than the Circulithium-4 Lentoid that binds the Lupulin Quartnate onto your taste buds. Weird. Think about it. Now stop. OK, go again. Now stop. Think again. And stop. But we digress. Made with 43 different hops and 65 various malts, this redolent ale will likely float your boat, whatever planet you're on.

Pours clear golden color with one finger of frothy white head, good retention. Malty, caramelly and citrusy aroma. Caramel, grapefruit & grainy flavor, peppery bitter finish.

Bottle, while wondering how the hell is this the 1st time for me drinking this. Almost completely clear darker golden pour with a white head. Nose is resinous sticky sweetness, light caramel, fairly macro obviously, but still got some character. Flavour is big resin, light caramel, a touch of booze in the best way and less bitterness than expected, but enough to keep it going. Gotta say this is much better than expected. It feels wrong, but it is what it is

A spot on west coast IPA. Popping fresh citrus hops, a bready sweet malt and sold carbonation make it refreshing and challenging. Glad to see it sneaking into Liquor Control Board outlets in Central Canada!

A classical IPA, rather good for an industrial brewery bought by heineken, resinous, a bit sweet, pleasant bitterness, 25.08.18, in the flat of Guillaume, Lausanne, Bonne-Esperance, buying it in one monoprix, Parus.

Közepes, hófehér, örökké tartó hab, opálos, arany szín. Citrushéjas, zöldfűszeres, füves illat. Lágy, füves, fűszeres, fenyős ízek. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, közepesen keserű. Rettenetesen jó az egyensúly, nagyon jól sikerült IPA.
