Less is more, SMASH! is a Single Malt and Single Hop beer.
Simcoe and Pilsner malt, that's it! A good way to discover all the richness and power of this hop that we love.

33cl can, BB 06/05/2024, lot# P762-763.
Dorée/paille, col crémeux blanc-pâle.
Arôme sur un bouquet bien fruité, léger résineux avec une pointe de tropical en rétro-nasal. Léger malt pils qui accompagne très bien ce single hop.
Palais est sur un bon fruité tropical, léger sur l'abricot, note de fruits de la passion. Fini sec, finement poussiéreux et résineux. Je note aussi un apport plaisant de citron vert.
Pas mauvaise, mais je continue à chercher le but d'y avoir apporté du Cryo?

16/XII/23 - 33cl can from La Source (webshop), shared @ home, BB: 16/V/24, lot P765-763 (2023-1179)
A little cloudy pale yellow blond beer, big creamy white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: lovely, super fruity, juicy, tropical fruits, mango, lychee, very hoppy, a bit dank, decent stuff, lovely smell! MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: good bitterness, lots of citrus, grapefruit, hoppy, grassy, very zesty, resinous, very nice! Aftertaste: a little bitter, more citrus notes, very juicy, nice grapefruit notes, good bitterness, lovely!
