Une bière blonde légère équilibrée, rafraîchissante et finement houblonnée. La Cristal IPA intègre des houblons aromatiques et non pas amérisants : Le Saaz : houblon noble et aromatique et plusieurs houblons en provenance des Etats Unis pour leurs parfums très floraux et leurs notes agrumes. Un nez houblon très floral et agrume, suivi d’une première bouche également très florale, un corps équilibré et une fin de bouche qui donne envie de redécouvrir la bière une nouvelle fois.

Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il luppolo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e l'esistenza olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. L'amaro è contenuto. La forza gustativa è normale e permane in maniera sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, un accenno di resinoso e agrumi

Frothy white head on well carbonated pale lemon coloured body. Malt, grain & tobacco aroma. Medium bodied, foamy & cloying. Grain, malt, biscuit, citrussy & sweet confectionery tastes with a tangy finish. Easy drinker.

Small white head over cristal clear pale golden beer. Nice, if a bit unspecific nose of hops, at least this one is clinched correctly. Taste is a bit thin, but again determined by the hops - fruity, but not distinct. Still, probably the best tasting beer from Mont Blanc so far. Light body, feels better carbonated than it looks; bit slick. Not too bad; still, the tasteprofile of this beer refers more to macrobrew than to a local craft. Thanks to Stefanie V for bringing!

330ml bottle at Brasserie Blanc in Oslo. Covering white head, near-clear golden body, faint lacing. Moderate smell of oily hops. Fine blended taste of ripe lemon and pale malt. Clean, distant bitterness to the ending. Smooth in the mouth. Food friendly. (Oslo 02.11.2021).
