White IPA hopped with Merkur and Comet, the latter grown in Belgium on the one hand (representing Dok's part) and in Brazil on the other hand (representing Daoravida); with this amount of Comet hops, the beer's name echoes that of an actual comet, one which was apparently visible to the naked eye in September last year at least in certain parts of the world. Huge, densely creamy, tiny-bubbled, egg-white, membrane-lacing, very firm head, misty pale yellow robe with greenish tinge. Aroma of dried lemongrass, lemon zest, chives, dried chamomile, lemonbalm, soap, very light biscuit somewhere underneath, lime peel, pear, green guava, crisphead lettuce. Crisp, spritzy onset, guava and carambola notes but not too exuberant, restrainedly sweetish with smooth body, displaying clear soapy, slick wheatiness (even a slight wheat sourishness) along with sweeter pale maltiness, perfumed by very citrusy, zesty and somewhat floral hops, aromatically bringing back the lemongrass, lemon zest and lime peel as well as establishing a long, softly spicy bitterness, through which the sweet pale malts pierce a bit - but the hops are clearly developed enough to keep the whole beer firmly in IPA territory. The wheat shines through the way it should, while this lovely citric spiciness prevails in the hop department: this is a very clear, clean and expressive example of the white IPA concept for sure. Lovely - but perhaps more a spring beer than an autumn beer...

Draught Good stable, just off-white head over hazy yellow beer with a light greenish sheen. Floral and fruity hops, lunaria, green leaves, rather delicate. Quite green stonefruit; floral, green leaves. Very bitter finish. Dry, almost emaciated MF, good carbonation. Severe - but good.
