The experimental vaccine was created at the invitation of Lallemand, which developed the new yeast. We had the opportunity to be among the first in the world to test it, and you to try it. The result is a light top-fermenting beer brewed from the basic ingredients: goblet water, pale ale barley malt (gluten), New Zealand experimental hops and new Lallemand Verdant yeast. As befits a ce-beer, it has a robust body and a long bitter aftertaste.

Backlog 24/12/2020; Best before 12/2021, Lot 20/05/05, 500ml bottle bought at Za Popen’t online shop (Ljubljana, Slovenia)

APPEARANCE: straw, yellow-ish, lemonade like color, lightly hazy with off white compact head, good lacing; pear juice like color with the sediment

AROMA: fairly noticeable bready malt backbone, light fruity esters and sweetness of pear, mandarins, mild citrusy freshness underneath with notes of lemon, lime, lemon grass, faint hint of grounded ginger, hints of herbs, plastic and vegetables like dry nettles and parsley root

TASTE: medium carbonation with a few sharp bubbles, medium light body, a bit thin on the edges, crisp & citrusy feel; light sweet fruity onset with tropical hints (lychee, mandarin) and more citrus driven notes - lime/lemon candy, subtle stone fruits; subtle notes of lipstick and minerals; quite herbal bitter bite (wormwood), grapefruit zest, light weed/dankness, hints of pine and greens/grass; dry finish with lingering bitterness

OVERALL: very easy going experimental IPA, slightly restrained on the nose and palate with light flaws (vegetables and lipstick); I was expecting a bit more from Lallemand Verdant yeast and New Zealand experimental hops to be honest;

Bottle. Hazy golden-yellow, pale, lasting white haed. Gentle fruity nose, sweet tropical notes with some citruses in the back. Medium bitterness, a bit grassy-herbal, slight citruses. Lasting aftertaste. Light and drinkable.
