An IPA with some added toasted flavours and a clean white head which is all malt. With 100% of it coming from VIC, this local legend is all the about the hops. 4 Aussie hops, fresh cut grass, lychee and mango flavours all round with an aroma of candied orange and grapefruit.

Yellowish small to medium but dense head over faintly veiled foxy-copper beer. Wey-ish, cheesy hops, oxydated hops. Not fresh-smelling (no BBdate to be found). Bitter, slightly cheesy, and quite present seawater, mineral flavour, seafruit. Hops immediately in front; faintly fruity-neutral afterwards. Sparkling carbonation, light body, bit slick, refreshing. In the end, quite nice; pity about the nose. Txs to Stef!

Cette Australian IPA m'a relativement bluffé. Avec un alcool plutôt faible à 5,8 % Abv, elle sait développer et soutenir une complexité aromatique assez exceptionnel et non atteint pour nombre d'IPA voire d'Imperial IPA. Du très beau travail qui de surcroît est très plaisant. En verre, nous sommes sur de l'abricot foncé (EBC aux environs de 23). Peu de mousse cependant, celle-ci ne recouvrant pas la surface. Au nez, les arômes sont riches et pleins et nous retrouvons dans l'ordre, fruits exotiques, mangue, résineux et miel. L'attaque est sur un bel équilibre malt/houblon où l'on retrouve les arômes d'agrumes, de mangue, de miel et de résineux. La deuxième bouche se porte davantage sur l'amertume, moins portée sur le résineux, elle laisse s'exprimer davantage les agrumes avec des arômes de bergamote. L'arrière bouche quant à elle sur le résineux et les agrumes, est légèrement liquoreuse, conférant beaucoup de profondeur. La mangue et les fruits exotiques réapparaissent alors en troisième bouche avant un superbe final, élancé, avec une amertume saillante et herbacée accompagnée d’arômes de résineux, d'agrumes et de fruits exotiques. A part le sucre un tantinet trop présent, tout est juste dans cette IPA avec un alcool magistralement utilisé et un IBU à 58 très bien dosé. Chapeau bas.
