Triple dry hop West Coast IPA. Een fris bittere IPA met milde, droge afdronk en tonen van meloen. Citrus wordt gebalanceerd met de hopsoort Hull Melon. Een perfecte combinatie om van te genieten in de vroege lentezon.

6.9/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is malt, piney hops, notes of grapefruit and orange, caramel, pine. Medium bitter flavour with a little more sweetness than I like for this style. Body is medium. Nice old school throwback IPA, good beer.

Bottle. Dark amber with beige head. Lots of caramel malts, woody, grapefruit, Earl Grey tea, bread crust. Solid medium sweet and bitter. Medium body. A West Coast IPA that actually tastes like one, not bad!

Fles gedeeld door Inoven, het is een helder roodbruin bier met een dun laagje schuim. Het heeft een hoppige wat grapefruit achtige geur. De smaak is vol, hoppig en fruitig met een zacht bittere afdronk.

Bottle, bb 4/22. Clear rosy amber with an off white head that fades to a cm. Aroma of melon, pine, breadcrust, grapefruit. Dryish and a bit empty in the middle with nice delicate fruit and a slightly resinous moderately bitter end. Usually for De Molen, lacks depth. --- Beer merged from original tick of Hoog & Droog on 23 Mar 2022 at 11:49 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.

Bottle. Clear darker amber, coppery. Solid and creamy tan head, lasting quite a bit. Nice and gentle fruity hoppy nose, citrusy with some milder sweet notes, some biscuits/caramel in the back. Solid bitterness, slightly biscuity, but pretty hoppy straightforward. Lasting aftertaste, bittery. Not sharp but bitter. Lighter body. Nicely drinkable.

Bottle via Drinkshop. Medium body, barely medium carbonation. Assertive caramelly malty presence - in a triple dry hopped west coast IPA? Wtf? Something went seriously sideways in De Molen. Med-high bitterness barely takes upper hand over the sweetness. Hops character seems mostly focused on taste, almost no aroma. Generic citrusy resiny flavour, medium intensity. Big disappointment, feels like a classic Czech IPA.

Bottle Pours clear amber with off-white head. Caramel and light pine and citruses on nose. In taste it again starts with caramel, dry mouthfeel, bit of pine, bit hoppy. This is not what I was hoping for.

Thuis uit een flesje. Donkere amber, koperkleur. Beige schuim. Had van de Molen meer verwacht wat betreft uitgesproken smaak. Vlak aroma, smaak licht bitter.
