Can: Poured a cloudy/hazy milky yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of juicy hops notes with citrus and tropical notes that are easily identifiable. Taste is a mix of juicy hops notes with some citrusy and tropical floral undertones with some residual sugar notes. Body si full with limited filtration. Another great juicy NEIPA from this fine brewery.

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours opaque orange-gold with a small tight white head and lace. Aroma is punchy orange juice, mixed tropical fruit with some juicy pineapple vibes, orange peels, some fresh leafy hops and a bit of round yeasty fruity support. Flavour is lightly to moderately sweet with orange juice and pineaple dominating, some resinous mango, flavourful aromatic orange and grapefruit peels with some bitter bite but balance, some yeasty roundness and a dry, lightly bitter finish. Medium bodied and creamy with slightly above average carbonation. Quite a nice IPA, the balance between juiciness and bitterness is well-handled, I like this more than Tropique Nord for example.
