26/XI/18 - 33cl bottle from a trade @ home, BB: 12/IX/18, or is that the bottle date? - (2018-1734) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the bottle!
Little cloudy blond to beige beer, big creamy yellowish head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: soapy and floral notes up front, fruity, some oranges, kaki fruit, sweet ripe fruits, spicy touch. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very spicy start, oxidized, orange peel, some grapefruit, bitter, peppery, fruity, bit sweet. Aftertaste: some citrus, orange peel, bitter, fruity, some banana, bit floral, soapy bitterness, little yeasty, spices.

Hazy gold - orange beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally crispness. Malts are sweetish, thin cream, bare whisper of grain, nothing serious. Crisp orange and tangerine hops, touches of pine and spice. Very mild citric peel underneath. Crispy finish. Light, crisp and clean.

0,33l bottle at home. Some dates are on the bottle but in very bad writing. orange very hazy color, small white head. smells earthy, citric, grassy, peppery, spices, bit yeasty, floral, hints of pines. very nice smell. full body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes earthy, citric, grassy, pines, light spices, peppery, lightly floral, herbal. finishes medium bitter with notes of grass, citrus and some piney notes. Great balance on this, very enjoyable to drink. Almost a bit oldschoolish, but overall very nice one.

Bottle at home in garden, from La Cave a Bulles, 14th June 18. Pours orange and fairly clear. Aroma is a mix of aromatic and citrus. Taste is clean, some aromatic perfume, citrus, pine needles and sap, bitter marmalade and a bitter finish. Great IPA again from Popihn, leading the way in this genre for France now.

Tap at BierCaB. Hazy golden with off white head. Dank hops, lime, pine, grapefruit, sweet malts, light grassy. Medium sweet and over medium bitter. Just over medium bodied. Not bad, like an amped up classic IPA.
