On ne va pas se mentir, même si cette IPA ne titre qu'à 5 %, il y a largement de quoi faire mieux et notamment sur l'intensité qui fléchit très rapidement et sur la complexité. Le visuel est sur un blond doré limpide avec une fine effervescence moyennement soutenue et une mousse blanche de 1 cm. Le nez est sur une amertume franche bien que simple sur des arômes de pamplemousse et d'herbes avec des pointes de caramel et de pomme. En bouche c'est moins amer que le nez ne le laissait présager. Si l'attaque est encore vive et sur une bonne intensité, les arômes restent simples. La deuxième bouche s'aplatit complètement tant sur l'intensité que sur l'amertume. L'arrière-bouche vient tout juste rehausser tout cela. Le final est quant à lui très court. Manque de nervosité avant tout.

330ml bottle from Monster and Beer, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a clear medium amber colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, toffee caramel, light woody hops. The flavour is moderate bitter,, with a crisp, slightly watery, mineral, light metallic, very light dry pepper spice, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. I expected better.

330ml bottle into schooner glass. From BWS, Glen Innes. Copper coloured beer with a foamy white head and many tiny bubbles. Nose of dark caramel and sour grain. Slight effervescence, medium body. Taste has grassy tinny hops then a finish of malt, cashew nuts and lingering tin. Seems a bit unbalanced and hollow.

From a 330ml bottle on 2/1/2019. Pours a clear deep golden with a small head. Smells more malty than hoppy. Tastes of biscuit malt, some orange sweetness, with some light grassy and herbal notes. Finishes with a gentle bitterness. Medium bodied with moderate to average carbonation. Mild and unexciting, but pleasant enough (and probably above average for a Monteith's).
