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.

5 January 2019. At Westies, Ghent. Cheers to Eurogamer crew! From tap. Pours clear golden/orange with a lasting, small, frothy, off-white head; little lacing. Aroma of lime juice, lemon zest, unripe mandarin, mango, pineapple, perfumed hand soap, flowers, yellow grapefruit, golden berries, pine needle & onion. Taste is light fruity sweet, 'basic' apple peel, some pineapple & mango on a bready malty base, faintly yeasty; light to medium hoppy bitter middle brings yellow grapefruit & orange rind, a bit piney & grassy too, accent of sourish lemon zest. Dryish, piney & grassy hoppy finish, lingering bitter fruit rinds, yeast, mango & apple peel. Medium body, slick/oily texture, soft carbonation. Classic IPA, drinkable & accessible.

Un fruité d’agrumes mettant en vedette l’orange, le citron et le pamplemousse titille le nez. Notes de sapin Beaumier et subtilités florales également perçues. Grosse mousse dense et crémeuse sur liquide ambré, clair et pétillant, laissant une magnifique dentelle sur le verre. Entrée de bouche effervescente et piquante suivi d’un léger fruité et d’une finale plutôt terreuse. Le fruité et de levure et des houblons est important et se développe sous forme d’orange, de pêche, de poire et de subtiles fleurs des champs. La base maltée est sous-jacente au fruité et nous laisse une impression de doux caramel. La finale se veut un mélange de terre et de sapin. De corpulence moyenne et de texture onctueuse, elle développe une vive effervescence qui lui donne un indice de buvabilité très élevé. Une IPA Américaine certes et superbement bien bâtie, mais avec une touche Anglaise bien sentie.

Passible, though not particularly notable IPA. Sweeter malt base. Piney floral hops that fairly mild. Decent balance, ok in a pinch.

Clear golden pour with a fine thick off white head. Nice lacing. Unusual low hop intensity in the aroma. More caramel malty. Decent sweetness and an ok bitterness. Fine carbonation level. Caramel malty, mild resinous and a bit grapefruit hoppy. Decent beer, but I hope for some more hops in the profile.

Pours amber with fine carbonation and a thick white head. Aroma of malt and hops. Taste is smooth with a sharp hop bite that gradually fades to malt. Palate contains lemongrass, citrus and pine. Excellent IPA.

Bottle shared with JFE at Vaaland Bryghuus 01.12.18. Translucent golden. Persistent white head and lacing. Excellent aroma and taste of dried tropical fruits, mango, citrus and Sevilla marmalade. Medium high bitterness. Full mouthfeel.
