Volcan tropical au nez avec pamplemousse, ananas, banane et un très léger fond de résine. Liquide doré jaunâtre, assez voilé mais pas opaque. Mousse généreuse, rocailleuse et persistante. Une base maltée intense et caramélisée sert de support à une explosion tropicale et citrique. Banane et ananas sont au programme avec une subtilité de mandarine et de pamplemousse, assortis d’une amertume légèrement résineuse et citrique. Le corps est riche, crémeux et onctueux. Le malt caramélisé est bien présent dans cette délicieuse NEIPA ce qui n’est pas très conforme au style mais la rend absolument délicieuse et sucrée. Fortement appréciée même si les NEIPA ne m’emballent habituellement pas. O:7.97 V:4.35 G:5.9 C:4.75 G:17.78 T:40.75

Can from the brewery that pours a hazy golden colour with an amber hue. The head fluffy-frothy, off-white, long lasting and leaving lots of foamy lacing streaks and patches. Many blending fruitiness in the nose (oranges, mangoes, stone fruits and other tropical fruits) with a touch of spiciness, mild grassiness. The taste continues this fruitiness, all balanced with nothing really sticking out. Grassy hops, herbal notes lingers. Quite a nice juicy Double NEIPA with a bunch of blending fruits, and decent hoppiness in the finish. Feels like their Mixtape series doubled up.

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours fairly hazy amber with a thick eggshell head and some lace. Notes of melon, grapefruit, slightly soapy florals, touches of cannabis, prominent biscuity malt with some dashes of old-school caramel, a little pit fruit sweetness in the middle, mid-sweet at best despite the malty feel, finishing off-dry and lightly bitter with dank, floral and soapy hops and a little citrus oil. Medium-bodied, light creamy carbonation, no booze. Solid if a bit old school meets new school given the malty, rather herbal profile that is not really a NE style hallmark in my opinion. Not in love with Strata so that may affect my perception.
